Music for yoga is such a cliché that you could slap that moniker on a Barry Manilow CD and have it sold as a soundtrack for Downward Facing Dog pose. Yoga music has become a made-to-order commodity, and rarely attains the level of art. The title Music for Yoga and Other Joys doesn't bode well, but then, it has Jai Uttal, a veteran of world fusion going back 15 years and a devotee of kirtan singing teaming up with multi-instrumentalist Ben Leinbach for a series of extended improvisations. Leinbach creates a shifting back drop of chilled, Indian-derived grooves and textures like liquid mercury dipped in a fractal swirl. It's a perfect modal backdrop for Uttal, who improvises freely on an Indian stringed instrument called the dotar, electric guitar, and even banjo. Pieces like the 26-minute "Govinda" extend in a free fall until a rhythm loop drops in. Uttal swaps to a fuzzed out electric guitar solo that eventually merges into an improvised kirtan, his voice coiling in note-bending spirals like soul singing from the east. This may be music for yoga, but it's the other joys that will keep you coming back. --John Diliberto

Album Description

Jai Uttal—premier world music composer and 2003 Grammy® nominee—offers a moving mix of melody, rhythms, and chants with Music for Yoga and Other Joys. Known for his eclectic blend of East-meets-West sound, Jai offers listeners his first album created especially for yoga practice. More than 60 minutes of sensual music featuring dotar, electric guitar, and slide tamboura, all complemented by Jai's full, golden-toned voice. Produced in collaboration with Ben Leinbach. Also an excellent choice for meditating, gardening, driving, and bodywork.

4 out of 5 stars Beautiful Music.......2007-07-28

I like Jai Uttal's music since many years. This is one of his best albums.I like the way he incorporates different cultures, Yoga, bliss and spirituality. I also like Yoga Healing by the Aum Orchestra. Perfect for Yoga and meditation, or eMotive by the Non Profit Music label from Spain with the incredible song "Raghupati Raghava" by Eduardo Laguillo. My favorite Yoga Music artists are Eduardo Laguillo, The Aum Orchestra, Deva Premal, Krishna Das and Jai Uttal

3 out of 5 stars Yoga music but not that joyful.......2007-05-18

5 out of 5 stars The title for this CD is full and true.......2007-02-24

I love Jai Uttal's kirtan. There so much shakti that it is a great support for my asana. It supports full fucus and a joyful experience in my asana. Tears come to my eyes when I feel the bhakti expressed though this kirtan!

5 out of 5 stars I feel the joy.......2007-02-09

This is a wonderfull yoga cd. Jai has a beautiful haunting voice and the five songs progress perfectly to fit your asanas. I look forward to buying more of his cds

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!

1 out of 5 stars Detaching the World Vol 1.......2007-06-27

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. [...]

5 out of 5 stars Relaxing Music.......2007-02-20

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!

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.

Customer Reviews:

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.

5 out of 5 stars A Place of Peace.......2007-07-31

This is my first audio purchase so I can't compare it to other yoga CDs. I can say that I thoroughly enjoy the practice. It is actually a relief to listen without feeling like I have to look at the television when using a DVD. The cues are great!

5 out of 5 stars Great practice.......2007-05-04

I am so happy I found this cd! I started doing yoga at the gym about a month ago, but quickly found myself wanting something I could do anywhere, on the beach, in the woods, ect. I first bought Tracy Rich's Yoga Anywhere and was hugely disapointed as it was way too easy and could only be done in your home, not outside as she she asks you to use chairs, doorways, kitchen sinks ect.

This cd was my second try and I feel I got it right this time. The practice is challenging to me as a beginner which I like, I want to be able to practice and work on improving. I like that there are poses in this cd that I cannot already do. I feel like I've gotten a great workout after using this cd, one that comes close to actually going to class.

It will take some time of looking at the poses and coordinating the practice to know what she is telling me to do, but after a few times more of listening and looking I should have a great portable practice that I can do anywhere, anytime.

I am bringing this to Belize with me next month for the month so I can still do yoga even though I won't be able to make it to class. Thank you Shiva Rae!

5 out of 5 stars awsome.......2006-12-21

I've had this CD set for about a year and a half now. It is one of the best investments I have made in my yoga practice. $20 is nothing for what this CD offers. Doing yoga at home to this CD, using combinations of various tracks has brought my yoga practice to a higher level. I notice it when I go to actual classes. It's nice to have the private space of one's home to work on poses. It's also nice to have guidance. So often I tell myself I'll just do the CD for 45 minutes. Next thing I know, it's an hour and 45 minutes later and I've just had a killer yoga session, feeling so much better than when I started. Shiva Rea has a great voice, great pacing, great music, great thoughts to inspire yoga practice, etc. This is a great way to save money on yoga classes. You can still go to class, just less often. I love that this is a CD rather than a DVD/video. I have no desire to do yoga with the TV on. Light some candles, set up your sacred yoga space, and get yoga-fied at home. Highly recommended.

5 out of 5 stars soothing, rejuvinating, challenging.......2006-07-03

For anyone who craves a thorough yoga workout, but is still interested in a moderate and soothing journey, this is for you. Shiva's instructions are well-detailed and easy to follow. If you don't know the sanskrit names for the poses, you will begin to learn quite a few of them with this cd. There is both a solar practice cd and a lunar practice cd. The solar practice is energizing and challenging, while the lunar is perfect for unwinding after a stressful day at work. I highly recommend this for more intermediate practitioners. It is also a good challenge for the adventurous beginner as well. Enjoy!

5 out of 5 stars Classic Shiva.......2006-03-26

Shiva Rea's "Yoga Sanctuary: A Guided Hatha Yoga Practice" is fantastic for yoga on the go. This vocally guided practice is well rounded out from beginning to end. The spotlight review nicely covers every aspect of each track, so I won't repeat that. I really like that it suggests track sequences for sessions ranging from 20 minutes to about 60 minutes. Shiva dictates in her classic soothing voice with it's impeccable timing making transitions from pose to pose as smooth as can be. You will love how you feel after you've done this!

As with any at-home yoga video, it's essential that you are familiar with naming of postures, otherwise you can really injure yourself. With that said, I recommend this for intermediate level and up. If you're a Shiva fan, you will enjoy this great portable yoga work-out.

5 out of 5 stars In the Cave with the Siddhars.......2007-07-29

When you listen to this CD it will put you in a space you normally must meditate to get to.
I love listening to this as I lay down to sleep, and I feel like I'm in the cave with Nandhi. This is also a CD that veteran meditators will instantly identify with, it cuts across paths it takes you 'there', and
this isn't like your other favorite CDs, you won't find anything like this
thats been touched up in a studio.

Can you say primal?

5 out of 5 stars Awesome. If anybody in meditation I think they need this CD.......2007-07-20

I do meditation every day to open 7 chakras. It used toi take some time like 20 to 30 minutes to open all chakras. But when I started listening to this CD then within few minutes all chakras started opening and lasted till the end of CD.

It is a mind blowing CD and the best ever I purchased in my whole life. I am sure that I am going to listen to this music every day.

Thanks to the whole production team, musicians and everybody involved in producing this CD. Keep up the great work. Great work Nandhi.
People can look into this web site for further info if anybody is interested.

5 out of 5 stars Those sounds...a mirror for me.......2007-07-11

Dear Customers,

Thank you for sharing these wonderful arrangements. Cave of the Siddhars. Your music is instantly translated into soul messages. Musical soul massage. I don't know if it was my conscious mind or my unconscious mind but one of them surrendered to the music thanks to the constant didgeridoo in the background. My mind remembered a timeless aspect of itself. Turiya Nada's music that for the first few seconds had sounded extremely exotic fit into the mold of my being, as a result when I combined the music with asana practice I was able to deepen in the poses knowing that I was being "cushioned" by the call of Turiya Nada. The final "Arohara" invocations of the final tracks are perfect for the ending of savasana for me...and I believe for others too.

Thanks,
Nathaniel

5 out of 5 stars that which is, that which we are.......2007-04-10

Cave of the Siddhars is an empowering journey bringing to light these ancient vibrations. Connect on a deep level with the inspiration of the perfected masters. Feel the immense wisdom these vibrations hold and begin to connect with thought as source in every breadth. If you are looking to align a deep spiritual experience this is the music for you as all walks of life.
Blessings

5 out of 5 stars The Truth of Being.......2007-03-30

i remember listening to the cd before going to a healing movement class. the music and chants vibrate the truth of being. i was able to feel grounded with the ability to completely empty out into the silence of the divine. one of my challenges it to keep my feet here while embracing the inner light. this cd is very supportive of the healing journey and wherever i am in the moment. a beautiful merging of primal sounds and pure light. thank you for the gift of this cd!

Album Description

"...In an agitated stream, it is difficult to see a reflection. In a calm lake, that reflection is clear...."

Liquid Mind VII: Reflection, the seventh in Liquid Mind 's unique ultra-slow relaxation albums, ebbs and flows with a peaceful and introspective elegance. 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. This beautiful album is "musical healthcare" at its best: ideal for sleeping, meditation, anxiety and anger management, as a background to Reiki, Yoga, massage, and to enhance all healing activities. Parents and teachers find it useful to quiet hyperactive kids, veterinarians use the music to help animals recovering from surgery, mothers give birth to it, students study to it, artists paint and writers write to the musical backdrop of Liquid Mind. This subtle music has a way of opening our hearts and minds to our true selves.

5 out of 5 stars Meditative Masterpiece!.......2007-06-09

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!

3 out of 5 stars ok massage music.......2007-03-31

It's a little slow and boring for my taste, but it provides for constant airy sound. Typical spa music.

5 out of 5 stars JUST MELT.......2007-02-06

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.

The CD's liner notes define satori as "the indescribable experience of sudden, intuitive spiritual realization." That may be, yet unless you are a serious student of yoga or a fan of its ancient musical traditions, you may struggle to reach such a state while listening to these improvisations for shakuhachi flute (Riley Lee) and koto (Gabriel Lee, no relation). The recording's mood is almost somber and contrasts noticeably with Oriental Sunrise and Sanctuary, two splendid Riley Lee discs that offer a broader, more expressive tonal range. Here a stronger Oriental mood is conveyed, and the notion of stillness is pursued with such earnestness that the final result (to Occidental ears) is ultimately a state of inertia. While composers sometimes refer to the use of silence as an overt creative element in their works, Satori relies so heavily on the approach that it seems as though Lee's flute is being filtered through a dense fog, and from a substantial distance. Satori, originally recorded in 1983, seems best suited to serious-minded yoga practitioners and those who prefer to adorn their meditative states with only the most minimal of audio embellishments. For such people, this disc could be the answer to prayers. For others interested in shakuhachi music, the two aforementioned discs are likely to be more satisfying choices. --Terry Wood

5 out of 5 stars Absolutely beautiful.......2007-06-08

Fantastic CD for meditation. The music is simply beautiful, and it also helps me concentrate better when I am working.

4 out of 5 stars Good for background.......2007-03-19

If you aren't a teacher who is a good "yoga DJ", this is good background music for class.

5 out of 5 stars Satori-Music for Yoga and Meditation.......2006-12-18

The sound is open and spacious, highly evocative and emotionally complex.
If what you'll looking for is a delicate sensitivity,the warmth of wood, without
western music structure or pulse, you'll enjoy this cd.

5 out of 5 stars Perfection.......2004-01-13

This is one of the deepest, most spiritual pieces of music you may ever hear. The title track, Satori, is beyond words.
True Zen. It is about nothing and about everything. There is the repeated, plaintive cry of a mist-shourded horn and a deep sense of melancholic loss. The stillness resonates and builds to a feeling of resolution, light, color and the after-life.
Guaranteed to transport the mind.
One can only hope such a place truly exists.

5 out of 5 stars A Rare and Wonderful Spiritual Journey.......2002-05-07

I must admit, when it comes to this album and it's companion, Oriental Sunrise, I am more than a bit biased. I was the producer, recording engineer and co-editor for the original recordings of both albums, released on Plumeria Productions Hawaii label, in 1983. Few people know and Riley might be reluctant to advertise that all the music was "channeled" or improvised and recorded during one five-hour live session, in Lanikai, on the Hawaiian Island of Oahu. It was a truly magical experience I will never forget.
Gabriel Lee and I edited the five hours and arranged it into two distinctly different albums. Oriental Sunrise contains the brighter, more accessable "day" music and Satori, the deeper, darker "night" hues.
By today's or even 1983 standards, the technical quality was less than professional and I was very pleased that Riley chose to transcribe the music and re-record both albums. I was particularly pleased to see that he recorded Satori with the co-creator of the music, Gabriel Lee.
Both Satori and Oriental Sunrise contain what can truly be called "inspired" music. I know. I was there.
