Album Description

As we explore the depths of our "self", our "souls", through massage, relaxation, and other healing modalities, we gain experience and knowingness. The music from Detaching The World Vol. 1 is a transient, which allows for this knowingness to occur in a peaceful, tranquil, and comforting environment.

This CD has been created to provide over 60 minutes in running time without the use of vocals or percussion. Emil Gagliardi has introduced a new style of guitar called "The Nuit's Effect" named after its rich soothing textures and deep earthy tones. From the opening cut of "Tranquil Sunrise", Gagliardi's swirling guitar immediately sets the perfect mood for massage and relaxation. The density of "The Valley Beyond" swallows you up in a tapestry of color similar to a warm blanket while the hauntingly beautiful "Fallen Angel" resembles a fresh new day after a storm.

Gagliardi's vision of creating the perfect massage and relaxation music sets Detaching The World (Vol. 1) apart from all others. Its purpose is to serve gentleness and ease like the inhalation and exhalation of the breath.

5 out of 5 stars ***PERFECT FOR MASSAGE - BEAUTIFULLY RELAXING***.......2007-08-01

I originally discovered the music of Detaching the World at the Canyon Ranch in Tucson. After having one of the most cleansing deep tissue massages ever, I fell in love with the music of Vol. 4 and started to incorporate it into my massage practice. Needless to say, the music has been a success with myself and my clients ever since.
I was recently given Detaching the World Vol. 1 as a present by one of my regulars who happens to also love this music. I couldn't believe what I had been missing!!! I just started using it on a few clients and already people are melting away with the beautiful touch of this music. Everything about this CD is perfect for massage:

- The length (60+ mins, most of my clients are an hour long)
- The flow (a slow yet even match with my hands)
- The volume (the consistency remains throughout the disk)
- The sound (beautiful layered textures of music, apparently guitar)
- The quality (100%)
- The happiness from my clients (they look refreshed and comment positively to the music)
- My happiness as a therapist with this music (100%)

For me, this CD is a gold mine compared to my other relaxation CDs. Like Vol. 4, Vol. 1 is a keeper and will not leave you or your clients disappointed. Don't pass this one up!

I purchased this CD based on the reviews alone,In comparison to other meditation Cd's I own; this CD ranks far below.The music is in my opinion anything but relaxing.Not suitable for meditation.

5 out of 5 stars Promising Debut by Ambient Guitarist Emil Gagliardi.......2007-05-23

Although guitarist Emil Gagliardi's debut CD was designed for massage, meditation, and relaxation, it is much more than that. The ambient release features soothing, New Age-style synthesizer sounds generated entirely by Emil's electric guitar. The result is not only a great therapeutic tool, but also a legitimate work of sonic art in the vein of Andy Summers' classic ambient guitar album, Mysterious Barricades. Emil Gagliardi is a guitarist to keep an eye out for. [...]

I have other "relaxing" CDs that really don't do the job. This one does. I actually bought it to listen to while I had some dental work done and it was very helpful!

I got this gift for my boss since he is always so stressed. He closes his door sometimes and pops in the Cd to relax. Thanks!

Album Description

In the second installment of the series, Connecting The Universe Music has released a new relaxing journey with Detaching The World Vol. 2 - Ambient music for massage/relaxation/meditation. Through exploration of the unconscious, this music was designed as an offering by the artist to bring about complete relaxation to the listener. It allows for the unknown self to awaken and remember with comfort and ease.

Musician and creator Emil Gagliardi brings to us nine new tracks with Vol. 2. This CD provides over 63 minutes in running time without the use of vocals or percussion. As the opening track "Peaceful Country" begins, Gagliardi's unique and inimitable style of ambient guitar immediately sets the tone for a tranquil relaxing atmosphere. On "Mirror", you feel yourself sinking deeper into the gentle hands of what the artist calls "The Nuit's Effect" while "The Fellowship" and "The Fellowship Reprise" are a meditation of three soothingly calm guitars journeying to the mystical unknown. "Hawaiian Compressions" is a three piece composition symbolizing the warming atmosphere of the sun while gently slipping into the earthy picturesque tones of "Healing Within". The last track, "Pulse", is the capture of a meditation right outside the artist's home where the ocean, mountains, and sky share one relaxed and rejuvenated heartbeat.

Emil Gagliardi continues to provide seekers of total relaxation with his unique and one of a kind style of music. As heard in the bestselling Detaching The World Vol. 1, his devotion to creating serene music for the healing arts goes unsurpassed by his peers. His music bestows upon the listener gentleness and ease like the inhalation and exhalation of the breath.

5 out of 5 stars Ambient Guitarist Emil Gagliardi Dazzles on Second Album.......2007-05-23

Emil Gagliardi shows what he's made of in this spectacular follow-up. Laying down atmospheric riffs and hypnotic patterns against a backdrop of lush guitar-generated textures, Gagliardi creates canyons of sound that seem to come from the heavens and reverberate across a vast stretch of land beneath a starry expanse of sky. Combining the guitar stylings of Andy Summers, Robert Fripp, Allan Holdsworth, and even George Harrison, Gagliardi forges a unique and unparalleled style all his own. [...]

5 out of 5 stars serene ambient guitar to help aid a stressful mind.......2004-10-27

Lately I've been submerging myself in yoga, morning meditation, T'ai Chi, and massage therapy to help my mind, body and spirit cope with the loss of a loved one. My sister (who raves about this artist) gave me this cd on my birthday in hopes that it would aid through the grieving process and help me relax.

Soon after my birthday, I finally had an afternoon to do nothing but try and unwind. I took my portable cd player outside with this cd and lied in my hammock. A few minutes after hitting play, I closed my eyes and had the most intense visualizations. It was as if each note from this music embraced my soul and projected a movie of warmth and comfort in my eyelids.

A few hours went by as I lay in my hammock listening to this cd repeat over and over. The calming effects of this music, combined with the hammock, had relaxed me beyond words. It was as if the stress detached my world (no pun intended).

As I look through the liner notes, I notice that this entire cd was created with guitars. Never in my life have I heard guitar sound so angelic and peaceful. All of this cd is great, yet the piece of music that comforts my heart the most is Pulse. Pulse has a calm heartbeat sound with this airy guitar melody that dances gently through the notes. Absoulutly beautiful!

I am bringing this cd to my next massage appointment in hopes that my therapist too will feel the heavenly ambiance that this music provides.

5 out of 5 stars My client's favorite pick for bodywork!.......2004-06-06

Just got volume 2. Delicious! What an encore. Nicely divergent from Volume 1. It seems to be more 'grounded' than the prior work but still retaining the flavors of space. You can tell this artist respects the delicate atmosphere needed for massage. This cd is successful with a client who is beyond picky with his musical choices during our sessions. Muchas gracias!

5 out of 5 stars the most creative musical journey.......2003-12-15

Having had so many incredible experiences listening and working with Detaching The World Vol. 1, I purchased Vol. 2 without hesitation. Although different from the first CD, the musicians style of meditative guitar transforms me and resonates with me similiar to Vol. 1. It seems as if the music puts me in a trance sending me to another place - a place where everything is calm and nothing can go wrong. My thoughts disappear and I capture the importance of being in every moment. This CD is mellow enough for deep relaxation yet also great music to play in the car on a long roadtrip. Either way it is definitely a journey that everyone should experience. I also find it important to listen from beginning to end without stopping - each track almost leads you to the next. It's as if a story is formed in track 1 that sends you wanting to know more in track 2. This continues until the "grand finale" which is a "heartbeat"-like song - sending you immediataly inward on your own journey. This is a beautiful CD.

4 out of 5 stars The Om sound and Chants.......2007-07-30

I have a large collection of various OM sounds and chants. This is one of my favorites! I would also recommend The Om Sound - Sacred Sounds Vol. 1 this one is just a sound with subtle changes. I like both, pure sound of OM CDs and Chants.

4 out of 5 stars Great except for the feedback........2007-06-14

I really enjoy this CD, and have listened to it regularly since purchase. However, several minutes into the first track, a noise starts that really sounds like feedback. It's harsh and a little irritating, but not intolerable. One thing to consider is that I've been listening to this on a poor quality clock radio/cd player. Perhaps it is unnoticeable when played on better equipment.

4 out of 5 stars Really, really nice CD.......2007-06-08

This CD is really nice, helping to enter deep meditative stages. I particularly like the second track, which adds music to the traditional chant of OM, but both are beautiful.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent CD! .......2007-04-09

My teacher started using these CDs in our classroom while we did some thinking and meditation exercises and I couldn't believe how relaxed I felt surrounded by 30 people. The vibes in the room were amazing and I immediately asked her, after class, what the CD was and where she had gotten it.

She showed me it was the Tamboura CD and said they were all available on Amazon. Now I have the Chanting Om, Tamboura, and Tibetan Singing Bowl. Each are wonderful and I highly recommend them!

4 out of 5 stars great mediation music.......2007-03-30

great chanting for yoga or meditation especially since I'm not good at chanting myself. Very easy to focus on the sound. Highly recommended.

I have a very stressful job and listen to it occasionally at work when I would otherwise run out of the building while screaming.

5 out of 5 stars Pure Relaxation.......2007-01-09

I heard this CD in my yoga class during Shavasana. This CD helped my body continue to let go of tension and melt into the mat. I bought this CD to listen to while I go to sleep. I highly recommend this CD for anyone who needs/wants to relax and may have too much stress in their life. Enjoy!

5 out of 5 stars Deep and moving.......2006-02-15

I had the pleasure of taking a workshop with Todd Norian a few months ago. At the time, my only intention was to learn about anusara yoga. Mr. Norian struck me as a deeply spiritual person and a very kind soul - so naturally, I became curious about his music, which he had for sale in the back of the room.

I bought Bija and took it home and was immediately drawn into the soothing and meditative groove of this CD. The music is otherworldly but not "new-agey". Gentle chanting in the background complements the music without overpowering it. I use this CD often in my yoga classes and my students always remark on how relaxed it makes them feel. Well done! I can't wait to see what else Mr. Norian produces in the future.

5 out of 5 stars Yoga teachers: buy this........2004-03-26

I am picky about the music I sometimes use. I have endless numbers of "yoga" CDs, most of which are totally useless.

But when I go to the stereo during a class, I am always attracted to "Bija" by Todd Norian in cool down and Shavasana moments. There is something particularly sweet and deeply moving about Todd's soft chanting and vibrational tones. Todd is very spiritually tapped in to begin with anyway, so the music that comes through him is exceptional, extraordinary, special. Inside his lilting pulses, a vast spacious mind awakens. I especially like track #2 which opens up a transcendent quality in the yoga room every time.

Buy this album. You will use it over and over and over again.

5 out of 5 stars Music For Meditation-In-Motion.......2003-05-07

Todd Norian's new "Bija" CD combines Todd's gentle keyboard melodies with a soothing background of mantra. The result is music that drew me deeply inward - perfect for the focused practice of yoga asanas, or for meditation.

I found that the CD enhanced my experience of hatha yoga, and allowed me to go more fully into a practice of meditation-in-motion. The music became part of my practice, and seemed to resonate from the inside out. Because there are no abrupt changes of pace or key, the 70 minutes of music presented in this CD can accompany and support any contemplative practice.

As a poet, yoga teacher and practitioner, I highly recommend this, and all Todd Norian's musical CDs.

Science has proven that our minds and bodies harmonize with the tempo of our surroundings, and that slow music may cause a general relaxation of muscle tension.

Looking for great meditation music? Listen to Liquid Mind's assortment of musical meditation arrangements! I purchased Liquid Mind III years ago it's music became almost sacred to myself and other family members and friends. So, I purchased the entire series! Need I say more?!!!!
The music has a great "trademark" sound but each CD has it's own uniqueness. I found it was great anytime you need "background" music. I loved each and every CD by Liquid Mind and will treasure the music always. Thanks to Chuck Wild and all involved in the production of Liquid Mind!

When the day is through and nothing is left but the thoughts of the day that you wish would go away put on this music. Close your eyes, your mind, and melt away on the soft liquid sounds of this calming energy. IT is so soothing I can forget my noise filled mind and find a cloud to stretch out onto and just be......nothing

5 out of 5 stars Exactly what I was looking for.......2007-01-17

I always tried to relax by listening to classical music. Some classical is relaxing, but it can change tempo and volume often which I find distracting. This is much more calming then anything I've ever found. We have two of these cd's -- Reflection and Unity. I use it in the kitchen, or while I'm reading at bedtime. My 10-year-old listens to one at bedtime to help him calm down. I really love these cd's.

5 out of 5 stars A perfect CD for Massage.......2006-04-14

As a massage therapist, it is really tough to find appropriate music for a session. This CD hits the mark. No singing, chanting, or other distracting bird calls. Just pure melodious tunes that flow from one song to the other. My clients love this CD and you will too.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Liquid mind is what you are looking for.......2007-05-25

Liquid mind albums are just what you are looking for if you need a cd for sleep, meditation, or napping. This album is difficult to stay awake to. Synth sounds glide in and out like clouds; you can't focus on one too long as it will pass by and you will find another sound-cloud to float on. No rhythm, no melody, no beat; there is enough change to keep you from being able to predict what is going to happen next but not so much that you stay alert. Very good for this purpose.

5 out of 5 stars ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.......2007-03-10

This is one incredible compact disc. It is so good, I can't wait to get home, hop in bed and throw the headphones on. The synthesizers are soooo soothing, they put me in a state of cosmic euphoria. I feel the stress of the day, just being pulled out of my body, and a soothing clam that follows. It is one of 3 that I have purchased which provide the same sense of tranquility that I require at the end of the day. If your daily life is filled with stress, (and who's isn't). This CD is highly recommended.....

2 out of 5 stars Numb Resemblance.......2006-11-30

Balance is a mirror of Chuck Wild's first project (Ambience Minimus) 3 years earlier. Unfortunately there is no forward progress in the Liquid Mind series. There is more warmth than it's predacesor "Slow World", but that ethereal "Ambience Minimus" tone is lacking. Here the tone tends to be outlaid rather than uprisen. Yes it dose maintain that flowing monochromatic state and it's planes dissolve well with some interesting soundshifting. But that is not enough to make this project appealing.

4 out of 5 stars Liquid Mind III: Balance.......2006-08-20

I use this product for massage background music. All Liquid mind CD work well. After purchasing the entire series, I realized you really only need 1 or 2 of this style.

5 out of 5 stars A superb work.......2005-05-14

In my opinion, this is Liquid Mind's best work. If you haven't listened to this type of music before it is quite different. There is no beat, no melody, but drifting synthesizers that rise and dance on a theme of inspiration and grace. If you're looking for Yanni type New Age music you won't like this. If you're looking for something that plays well in the background as you do your work or meditate, this just might be the cd for you. One of my favorites.

I gave it to my father who leads a meditation healing group at his church. They play this cd during their session and people really find it promotes an atmosphere of quiet positivity.

Album Description

It's a new beginning with this third installment in the Detaching the World series. Musician Emil Gagliardi has written these compositions to reflect a unique inner journey, a style often described as meditative guitar. This music creates a peaceful, soothing environment for massage, relaxation, meditation, and yoga.

Detaching the World Vol. 3 provides over 60 minutes of continuous comforting ambient guitar work. As with all cds releases by this artist, there are no: fast tempos, fluctuating volume changes, synthesizers or percussion.

At the start of this journey, we come across the first composition; a 25 minute piece entitled A New Beginning. You hear an immediate gentle wave of music as the tone is set in favor of listeners requesting a blissful atmosphere for massage and relaxation. Throughout A New Beginning, the ambient landscapes of guitar change as if the artist is! taking us on a special calming voyage away from the mind and toward the heart.

Motions is a perfect example of meditative guitar as Detaching the World takes you deeper into a meditative state. The listener can hear a warm background melody weave in between each tranquil note giving the textures of the song a levitation type feel.

As we embark on the leisurely gentle Comforts of Home, this piece portrays a special improvised feeling of calmness as if the artist just took us in from a cold day, sat us down by the fire with a warm blanket, and handed us a cup of tea.

The latter leads us into Spring, a uniquely creative composition symbolizing a change within the musical climate of this work of art. The magic of Spring is meant to remind listeners of the special atmosphere needed to receive massage. Each tender note is meant to melt away anxiety and stress.

In this ever changing world of music, Detaching the World brings massage therapists, yoga instructors and seekers of total relaxation world wide to a new dimension. This music bestows upon the listener gentleness and ease like the inhalation and exhalation of the breath.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Ambient Guitarist Emil Gagliardi Creates Cosmic Sounds.......2007-06-03

Ambient guitarist Emil Gagliardi calls his independent label Connecting the Universe Music, and this CD truly has the feel of a personal and instant connection to the cosmos. The album starts off ambitiously with big, dreamy, and mysterious chords that engender intimate reflection of both the internal and the external, and perhaps even the dimensional. From there, the CD continues a kaleidoscopic journey of piercing string plucks, bagpipe-like tones, and sprightly harmonics. By the end, the spacy, floating wah-wahs will have the listener drifting away on clouds.

5 out of 5 stars Great Gift for The Boss.......2007-02-14

I gave this to my boss for a present and he loved it. What a great way to get the Boss to be calm and happy.

5 out of 5 stars A favorite pick for my clients and myself.......2006-03-25

This cd should be in the 'Massage Music Hall of Fame'. Over 60 minutes and truly divine.

5 out of 5 stars Another great release from the series!.......2005-04-20

There's no question about it - five stars for this new volume in the Detaching the World series! I have a massage and polarity therapy practice in which this music is perfect for. My clients comment that the music definitely adds to the goal of achieving balance and total relaxation within. It's calming, soothing and peaceful in all the ways it should be. I often have trouble finding such even and well balanced music for my practice but this series is a great find. Currently I have Vol. 1, 2 & 3 of the Detaching the World series and will keep an eye out for more. They create the perfect atmosphere and assist with the healing intentions of my work. I highly reccomend Detaching the World music as a whole, but I think that Vol. 3 is my favorite of the three so far.

5 out of 5 stars A wonderful well balanced accompaniment to massage .......2004-12-18

I recently purchased Detaching the World's volume 3 cd at an AMTA annual event held in Boxborough, MA. In the exhibit hall I noticed the record label had a booth promoting the third release from this artist. Me being an avid fan of the artist's work, I immediately stood in line to have him sign my new purchase. Even though the booth was swarmed with other therapists requesting signed cds and asking a ton of questions, he had this ability to make everyone feel comfortable and relaxed. This composure he showed embodies in the music he creates.

Detaching the World volume 3 is a luscious beautiful compilation that flows extremely well with massage. It is well balanced and matches perfectly with the energy work I give. Each song seems to stream into one another without any loud volume changes or increased pace. Even though this cd is my new favorite in the collection, I would highly recommend the entire series to any therapist looking for soothing background music as an accompaniment to massage.

5 out of 5 stars The Best!!.......2005-10-17

I can't believe anyone thought this was "so-so" - well, that's what makes life interesting...I have taught yoga for a long time and I never get tired of this CD. I love every single thing on the first disc. Totally amazing both for classes and also for background music when I'm doing research in my office.

5 out of 5 stars Great for Yoga Practice and Meditation.......2005-06-26

I really love this CD for my yoga classes. Disc 1 escalates at a nice pace for a beautiful flow practice and Disc 2 is wonderful for the cooling phase and meditation. All of the artists are favorites of mine, especially Deva Premal.

5 out of 5 stars Soothing.......2005-03-25

Planet Yoga, a two-CD set of Indian chants songs and ambient creates the perfect environment for the practice of yoga, exercise, contemplation and relaxation. The first CD is designed as an accompaniment to yoga. The second CD in the collection is designed to enhance relaxation and meditative practices by presenting an ambient soundscape that creates a space that engenders a vibration of peace.
This is one of the most relaxing CD's you'll find. This is a great CD to listen to on the way home after a long, stressful day at work.

5 out of 5 stars Two great differing discs.......2005-01-27

These two discs will make a welcome addition to a collection of music used for Yoga and contemplation. The first disc offers music with lots of melodic pulse. The second disc is much more mellow and beautiful in its own way. The various artists featured are all great. They are my favorites! You'll benefit from the artistry of Deva Premal, Jai Uttal, Drala and much more. You can't go wrong with this compilation.

5 out of 5 stars Deep Peace: Music For Yoga & Relaxation.......2003-06-27

This CD is so universal for me. There are many uses for this CD which include yoga class during relaxation, at night to fall asleep to and for those days I just listen to it for pleasure and become more centered. It is one of my most used CD. Very glad I found it and have shared it with many friends who find it very helpful at many different times in their lives.

5 out of 5 stars Children's Lullaby.......2003-05-07

We have used Todd Norian's CD every night to get children to sleep. They would not be without this soothing music to fall asleep. Thank you Todd for creating something so unique that we can not live without it.

5 out of 5 stars Deep Peace: Music For Yoga & Relaxation.......2003-05-03

The first time I heard Todd's Deep Peace was in a yoga class at Kripalu Center.
I cried. Since then I have played it for my yoga students and
every time someone asks me what I am playing because it is so beautiful and moving. I even bought a case of CD's because I wanted to share this great CD with my friends and family..I sold some to my students too.

The real critic in my house was my sweet cocker spaniel (she passed away recently). I used to leave Deep Peace on for her when I would leave the house to calm her down. She suffered separation anxiety. It was her favorite CD. How do I know?
I would often come home and see her sleeping by my portable stereo. She did not do this with any other tape or CD. She would also recognize it when I put it on and you could see the calmness roll over her. I know this music comforted her as much as it still comforts me.

5 out of 5 stars The title of this CD says it perfectly!.......2003-05-02

The music is like a warm, soothing presence that nurtures a feeling of exactly what it says---deep peace. I use it regularly in my yoga classes and my students love it! I teach yoga in a wide variety of settings and this CD has become one of the essential items I take with me to every class. I can always count on it to help me create a peaceful, calm, meditative atmosphere no matter what the setting is. Track 3 is ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL for relaxation. It's like floating on a gently flowing, beautiful current of sound.

1 out of 5 stars Makes Elevator Music Seem Like Beethoven.......2002-08-25

What garbage! According to the liner notes the music was written while in a state of meditation. Well the "composer" might as well have been asleep. If I could take 10 minutes to write a simple computer program to generate this kind of fluff and market it properly, I could be a millionaire! All that is done is hold a note or two down on the synth and occasional play a different note. No form, melody, orchestration, etc. It makes those Andes flute improvisation relaxation CDs seem like James Galway on acid.

Product Description

Composer and musician Emil Gagliardi presents six soothing new tracks of ambient meditative guitar music for the critically acclaimed Detaching the World CD series. Detaching the World (Vol. 4) provides over an hour's worth of delicately crafted continuous ambient guitar compositions. This CD, as with all CDs released by this artist, contain no: fast tempos, fluctuating volume changes, synthesizers or percussion. This music is meant to embrace the listener's soul with the artist's interpretation of unconditional love (through ambient guitar) for all that choose to seek it. Detaching the World (Vol. 4) is highly recommended for massage and spa, meditation, reiki, hypnotherapy, yoga, relaxation and pure enjoyment. Total run time: 62:20. As Trickle Down begins, an acoustic guitar mimics a gentle mid-winter snowfall while a soft acoustic melody represents the indefinite placement of snowflakes trickling through the sky. Clouds holds true meaning to the name, like a timeless shift of the soul floating seamlessly through eternal atmosphere. The unmistakable trio blend of guitars on the picturesque Midnight Moon carries us deeper into the artist s nightly vision of a full moon evening on the calm sea (see cover photo). Tribute (to Sam and Sammy) is a beautifully acclaimed artist representation of the soul's crossover to the other side. The unfettered Native Land is an offering to the spirit of the Abnaki people who once inhabited the coast of Broad Cove, Maine (where Detaching the World Vol. 4 was recorded). Peace perfectly sums up this recording with intricate layers of blissful harmonic guitar work requesting a prayer for... Detaching the World (Vol. 4) provides massage therapists, yoga enthusiasts, healing arts professionals and seekers of total relaxation with a unique attractive approach to relaxing ambient background music. Emil Gagliardi's intricate guitar work bestows upon the listen

5 out of 5 stars Ambient Guitarist Emil Gagliardi Comes Full Circle.......2007-06-25

In the fourth volume of his Detaching the World series, ambient guitarist Emil Gagliardi pulls together the experimental pastiches and sonic vignettes of his previous three installments into a unifying whole, resulting in his first presentation of complete songs with distinct melodies and a beginning, middle, and end. The effects-laden signal processing of Gagliardi's electric guitar fills in the background, while Gagliardi's acoustic guitar expresses his musical musings in the foreground. The artist's future recordings are highly anticipated.

5 out of 5 stars ...a CD review from a client's perspective..........2007-05-17

I just came back fresh from my weekly massage session and felt the urge to write a review of Vol. 4, DETACHING the world. DETACHING the world has become a vital element in developing the peaceful and relaxing background setting for my regular weekly massage appointment. I usually play this disc in the car in order to prepare my mind, body, and spirit to fully receive a relaxing massage. Even playing the music for 10 minutes prior to my appointment helps me focus and relax.

Musician Emil Gagliardi has found this magical balance between complexity and simplicity with his composition styling and guitar performance. The intricacy of his music is presented in a rich, beautiful, and relaxed layered sound that isn't demanding or boring. During the massage, it engages me, the client, to focus on the bodywork I'm receiving without any unwelcome interruptions. In the past, I've had therapists use other music that's kind of relaxing but always has that 1 or 2 tracks to offset my center. You won't find this happening on Vol. 4. The music blends together so well that it's hard to tell when one selection ends and the next begins. I do know that from the beginning track to the ending track, the music gets deeper...and deeper...and deeper...kind of like a journey.

The first two tracks (Trickle Down and Clouds) immediately pull my body/mind/spirit into the massage and allow me to focus on the work being given. Midnight Moon, Tribute, and Native Land draws the atmosphere deeper which matches the hands on work perfectly. Honestly at this point in the massage, everything blends in so well together that I'm in another realm. The euphoric Peace wraps up the session and holds the atmosphere in a refreshing relaxed state.

After today's session, my therapist (who also owns this disc) and I briefly discussed how great this music is for massage. I relayed how her touch matches the music and brings out these great visuals and colors. She was telling me how this disc and Vol. 1 are both magical in creating that perfect balance of energy in the room. I couldn't agree more. If you're looking for a new style of relaxing music, look no further... Vol. 4 is magical, beautiful, and very different from the norm.

I found this cd Detaching the World Vol. 4 at the Canyon Ranch Resort in Tucson. After receiving one of the most cleansing and purifying massages ever (while this music was playing in the background), I couldn't help but think of how wonderful it would be to add this cd to my practice. After my purchase, I listened to it for almost a week strait before returning home and trying it out on clients. As a full time massage therapist, this cd has played during many sessions, providing a peaceful, relaxed setting with the music. As most lmts know, it can be very frustrating finding that happy medium of music that connects clients and therapists. I will tell you that the purifying cleansing deep guitar notes on this cd will not leave you or clients dissapointed. This one's a keeper!

4 out of 5 stars a wonderful addition for relaxing music , for your library........2007-03-26

I love the music of the guitar in this cd, it is just what I need after a hectic day, and when I just want to unwind, and let my mind think beautiful thoughts, and go to a place where I can just let go, and rest.

2 out of 5 stars Not as I had hoped........2007-03-21

Regrettably, I am not qualified to rate this work as I never made it past track 2. I feel obliged to comment however, since there is no opportunity to sample tracks at this writing. If you are attracted to the "no synth" billing , read on. If you like that popular woo wooo woo sound, please disregard my rating and support this artist. Notably, there is a predominant use of electric guitar, manipulated through an amp.( eg: on track 2 a "goosed" sustain rather than a natural decay) I experience this somatically as nauseous and disorienting and would never introduce it to a therapeutic session. That effect-making is not what I anticipate from "ambient" guitar. ( Ambient meaning on both sides or surround sound ) I have been fooled before and was fooled again, but if you want natural acoustics (which I find can offer an opportunity for energetically grounded expansion), I can spare you the disappointment. It only takes a minute or two for a client to say "could we listen to something else?", so 2 tracks is enough for me to base my impression on. I'm resuming my good old practice of choosing not to purchase any cd I have not yet heard . Respectfully~~ Kirsten Wiberg lic.CMT
