About the Artist
Fergus Marsh World groove Chapman Stick.

Fergus Marsh is a bass and Chapman Stick player who has contributed to over 50 CDs. His work involves local gigs, television commercials, CDs and touring. He moves fluidly between both the Christian and secular arenas. Most recently he has just finished a tour with Peter Murphy of Bauhaus fame, and a worship CD with Ruth Fazal. Although he has contributed to many CDs as a musician, his current project represents his first "solo" effort. The concept for the CD is to blend biblical text with modern grooves, with which to meditate or chant along with. He is internationally recognized as one of the best players of the Chapman Stick which is his primary instrument on this recording. Fergus lives in Ontario with his wife Lynn and their son Luke.

Product Description
Every great while an artist strikes a fortunate rhythm and radiance results. So is the case with the recent Fergus Marsh album Spirit Moves. Its rhythm is not merely musical but mystical. Fergus has blended harmonies that reach beyond musical notes and voice and poetry to create relationship, or at least its opportunity. World beat grooves with atmospheric soloing provide a lush sound-scape the listener can pour themelves into. The meditative styling of song in chant form and short, repeated lyrics (that are mainly biblical) tempt you to a level of consciousness where spiritual beings reside and mystical experience is possible.

5 out of 5 stars Haunting.......2007-02-14

I have a fast paced life, time for relaxing is a rare event. The music on this CD is beautiful, it brings you back to what honestly matters in life. This man has a way of touching you through his music that I have never experienced before and I am a more aware and relaxed person because of it. Haunting music, it lets you have a rare glimpse of life through a Native Americans eyes.

5 out of 5 stars I am the one who has been given the 'Honor'.......2005-05-03

I love love love this CD. It is my favorite of all my John Two-Hawks CDs, so far. The traditional ancient feel he brings out with this CD is deep in the core of the spirit of the music. Each song leads you into the woods, to the river or to the fire. It is mesmerizing and wonderful. Had a massage to this one, what a treat that was. I am telling you, the music on this CD will take you on a beautiful journey. It did me!

    The name Steve Roach has been synonymous with ambient music for years. His latest excursion into late-night musical improvisations explores the purely ethereal side of his signature style without percussion, except for the second track, "Spirit Moves." Even there, the rhythmic propulsion is gentle. The six compositions making up this 74-minute epic have been fashioned from Ebow, electric guitar, and various digital processing gear. Yet, while the instrumental origins of the album are electric and electronic, the end results are organic, as if they were literally streaming forth from the composer's subconscious. As with many Roach recordings, the music twists and weaves in abstract ways, traversing a ghostly path through one's imagination. As an aural narcotic, it is certainly an effective stress-reliever. Although the guitar sounds add a fresher element to Streams & Currents, the album ultimately does not break much new ground in this composer's massive catalog, but Roach's disciples will certainly find much to enjoy while journeying along its shadowy sonic trails. --Bryan Reesman

    4 out of 5 stars Not His Best Work, But Worth Having.......2006-07-14

    'Streams and Currents' does not compare to 'Dreamtime Return' (1988) or 'On Ritual Ground' (1992) or any of his other, more original works, but it is still worth having. I listened to this album at Silver Platters before I bought it, and read the accompanying notes on the screen. It said that 'Streams and Currents' had no overdubbing, that they were basically recorded on one take, and for that reason alone I was not disappointed. Roach's work is consistent, focused and spontaneous, just the way I like it. I learned today that he is responsible for a MIDI sequence code that other ambient artists use--he really knows what he is doing with his synthesizers. All jargon aside, this album along with his better works are theraputic: I use them to relax, to fall asleep and to meditate. I'm not into vocals during these times, just pure ambience. Anything else included in the background, such as rhythmic home-made drums or the pleasingly bent pitches of his guitar licks are all part of the plan.

    'Streams and Currents' is just another delicious flavor of ice cream for the mind. 'Quiet Music' and 'Mystic Chords & Sacred Space' are my two favorite alternate flavors, not counting the must-have 'Dreamtime Return.' I'm planning on getting 'Immersion: One', the first in a planned series of eight discs that are each one track over 70 minutes long of more tantalizing electronic bliss, along with 'Mantram', which I also gave a pre-listening to. Highly preferred over the works he does with Vidna Obmana, which are utterly too dark for my interests. Roach also works well with Michael Stearns and Kevin Braheny ('Desert Solitare,' for instance).

    5 out of 5 stars Ethereal Ambient Musique Perfectionado!.......2005-02-03

    Steve Roach is the master at ambient and ethereal sounding music. On this album he took basic instruments such as guitars and the such and dostorted and changed notes and made other alterations to create a new world of ethereal beauty. With the exception of my favourite track (the over twenty minute "Spirit Moves") there are no drums. This is the kind of music that will calm, inspire, and project your mind, body, and soul into another dimension of feeling and wonderment. The music will take its time getting to where it's going and it is purely amazing.

    4 out of 5 stars subtle beauty.......2005-01-17

    I appreciate the more subtle nature of this cd which is predominantly on tracks 4,5 and 6. When listened to closely, there are truly some beautiful moments on this cd.

    2 out of 5 stars Eh........2003-08-01

    Eh. Thats basically my response to this work by Roach. It just didn't do anything for me. Some people really liked this one, but I just found it uninspiring---it just didn't grab me like some of his other albums. The treated guitar sounds were a bit annoying at times. Still you may think it worth having if you're a Roach fan.

    5 out of 5 stars Stream and currents to carry your mind and soul.......2002-09-30

    Roach's second guitar based work proves that is it not always the equipment or instrumentation that makes the artist or his works. Primarily known as a master of the synthesizer, Roach's guitar worlds flow with just as much emotion and impact as his classic 'Structures from Silence'.

    With only one track containing any sense of rhythm, the album is a blissful drift, like the title suggests of gently flowing waters of emotion and currents of meditation.

    Upon hearing, some might wonder if it actually is a guitar being used, as the signature Roach sound treatments apply to morph the sound away from any conventional guitar tonality.

    A fantastic late night disc.

          Album Description

          You will think an angel kissed you as one of the original female soul singers in New Orleans presents a collection of traditional hymns. Now immersed in a group and personal music ministry, Beryl offers her "most requested" hymns that you will love to sing (lyrics provided). A MIDI masterpiece, Beryl utilized a Roland XP-50 workstation, computer electronics and Cakewalk to sequence instrumental accompaniments in MIDI format, with vocal tracks added in her home studio. Completed tracks were then professionally mastered and pressed to offer this product to you. The title (original) song "Like The Seagull" was written by David Caruso, Jr., Beryl's brother. This CD links her profound love of music with faith in God. Her goal: To touch hearts, and with music enhance the intimacy of the faithful with their Creator. The songs included on Beryl's debut CD were personally chosen to reflect the emotional intensity of "passages" through life events. Having already faced the loss of a teenage daughter in an automobile accident years ago, recent years also brought the decline of health and eventual loss of both of her beloved parents. Several of these songs, including the title song, were actually sung at their funerals. Often requested in her music ministry, Beryl believes this collection of hymns are of special value to anyone who enjoys the calming peace of the musical church presence, to the faithful experiencing profound joy and thankfulness to God for blessings received, and also those who may be facing life challenges of their own, such as age, failing health, or the loss of a loved one.
