Wow David, This is very enchanting. Makes you feel like your on top of a mountain and all of a sudden the music lifts you up off the ground and takes you flying around on a mystical journey with an angelic host flying all around you, showing you all the exciting God given scenery, and then brings you back to your resting place on the mountain. Very composition with some great instrumentation and vocals.
Peace and Blessings, John
How did I miss this one!
Well thsi is music right up my street.
Both in terms of lyrical musings and musical style.
From the Tibetan opening I was hooked.
I have a strange story about Sam Ye monestary....
This is "Sacred" music.
It's moved beyond the hymn,althougha hymn of sorts it remains,but now it's ahymn of human awareness.
We were fashioned to ask questions.
I'm not sure about the tree of knowledge as a factual object but I have always believed most thigs to be metaphors for concepts that would have been difficult to understand expressed any other way.
I am more inclined to the "One God" point of view.
Each sect holding just a shard of the whole.
Even non belief is part of the whole.
So we ask questions,not expecting answers as such.
But oft times,the question asking recieves some kind of answer or resolution within.
With such power and majesty at your fingertips,any human emotion can emerge.
"All there is is pure existance.
The pearl without a word.
And you know it's true,because it's in you"
Stunning song David.
I love Gregorian music and this chanting like stuff got me hooked. The prolonging vocal are a good way to make the music interesting and appreciative. We have a church here in Singapore, using Gregorian music as their base music but they recieve many fireback coz many people think Gregorian music is demon music especially their outfit. I don't agreed on this.
Blessing to you and all in family.
With million of love from Singapore.

This is wild!! Sounds like it was recorded in a cathedral. Huge sounding! The marching snare gives this a nice, moving vibe. Ying/Yang sorta thing. Beautiful acoustic guitar. The vocalist/lyrics are great! How did I miss this one. This song in particular touches me deeply Dave. We all are crying out at times, some more than others...Excellent playing by all involved and acompostion/production that is to die for...
Another huge piece - a piece of Art! Starting with those samples of the throat singers ... This song also captivates the listener, keeps them interested and focused. Great, great writing, performances and lyrics that intrigue! Just wonderful what you're creating here, David. Kudos to all your collaborators too!

Awesome track you got here and a well done production too. Got my vote. 5/5
Most warm atmosphere prevails here, as if I'm in a sunlit mountain top sanctuary with people walking around slowly doing their own rituals, -a nice slow synth envelops the realm or does the realm enclose the synth; like the cymbals simply subtly sounding once in awhile. Like the percussion...interesting placement; works fine. Good vocals David, with thoses heavenly synth sounds emersing you in this altering space.
Good sounds, like a chanting fusion. A new genre of your own.
EXCELLENT. a harmonious blend of meditative sounds.****

Rockorian chant....What a fabulous sound you have here...Stained glass castle? Love the vision that lyric creates in my mind...This really is very spiritual music...Hav`nt been to Tibet but have been to India and have to say, that yes, this reminds me of that beautiful, mystic land..
Peace n love mags xx
SOOTHING-RELAXING--A GOOD FULL VOCAL PRESENTATION--SPATIOUS--NOTHING FORCED--FLOWING LIKE A SMALL STREAM IN THE BACKWOODS--SOME NICE VOCAL RANGE AS SONG PROGRESSES--LIKE IT ALOT!!DRUM BEAT IS ALIVE AND DYNAMIC THROUGHOUT
Dave....the whole piece hangs together so smartly, building emotion as the whole picture comes into view. Extremely well conceived piece with all the trappings that mark a pro composition. Musicianship could not be better. Serene, scenic, passionate...fantastic my friend. ~Blake
Tripping beginning Dave..."rockorian" hey I like that term... the piece settles in and becomes quite the interesting listen with many visuals suggested by the lyrics and soundworks. A fine strongly constructed piece...not to forget the familar native american flute. Well done to all!
yeah agreed.. a great ambient intro.. like the voice.. and the march beat.. this has a subdued power.. nice acoustic guitar break.. a spiritual quest.. the lyrics are thought provoking..
feeling inducing.. I really like this one doc.. love the drums..
gives a real china marching through tibet kind of tension to it..
thanks for the pan flute ending.. peace restored.. cheers..
Hey, that was some opening - bass-throat-singing and synth-
Interesting project thru-out.
Fine poetry given a proper musical setting! Complex and tasteful. Loved the intro. Thanks for striving for something profound, it was much appreciated. -Dave W.
