| Lilting Ecstasy! |
No this is not ambient space music, not jazz, not fusion, not progressive rock nor power pop. But this is a tranced-out, tenderly soul-fired, world fusion beats, jazzy, vocals-driven, keys, and jazzy fusion, violin-enhanced, raga-rock, blow-out of unique power and grace! And yes you will be tempted to begin swaying and dancing within this Indo-fusion, groove-temple-of-sound.
… If you love female vocals - ethereal yet passionate blended with electric violin and then intertwined with Indian-raga, beat-driven, mantras, eclectic synths, and an air of deep mystery – then by all means, grab this now! Suvarna Freeman's vocals and violin are a luscious experience!!
THIS RELEASE IS JUST TOO COOL!!
It avoids all that cheesy gestalt of, "let's-rip-off-Indian-traditional-music-and-make-a-fast-buck-disco-drivel" stylings, all too prevalent in world music – but instead delivers a truly unique listening experience. The 7:30 Completion song was AWESOME, a meditative lilting of ecstasy unbound, solemn, pure light in sound, and to hear Suvarna's spoken words were as if an angel had come to my side -- ooh, serious thrilling goose bumps -- oh for this song to have lasted three times longer.
Next CD, Suvarna, fill a whole CD with such!! Let your soul fly for a good 18 minutes or so. Do it! Suvarna, you are !!MAGIC!! and your voice has lifted this seasoned reviewer into planes of new sonic nirvanas -- please do this again!! Thanks! Need I say this? . . .
Highly recommended!
- John W. Patterson, Etherean Music
