Medicine Buddha 3 reviews Jonathan Goldman
Etherean, 2001
A Centering, Embodied Experience.....very healing
+ A treasure + soft meditative soothing
I walked into a Tibetan store on Pearl Street in Boulder Colorado and this cd was playing. I couldnt help but notice how the deep Tibetan chants almost immediately brought me to center. It seemed like the music had an embodying effect on me and brought me to a sense of wholeness. I was ...

Hot Chili Mama 2 reviews Beausoleil, Michael Doucet
Arhoolie Records, 1993
Musique Extraordinaire: Best Swinging Cajun Band Around
+ Good Cajun Party Music
This CD was my introduction to the music of Beausoleil - I was hooked from the start. Infectious rhythms, explosive energy ... right from the "get go", Cajun vocals, the fiddle and a small accordion - these guys know how to whip up a sound that keeps you hopping and stepping across the dance floor. ...

Serious Tam 3 reviews Telek
Real World, 2000
The Betels and Tropical Soul
+ Go Long Way Telek + Cool harmonies, great sound
When I first heard a cut from SERIOUS TAM, I told my wife that this is what the Beatles would have sounded like today had they been allowed to live and to evolve from the 1970's to the 2000's. Curiously, the liner notes reveal that George Telek loves the music of the Beatles, and his initial ...

Trance Planet, Vol. 3 3 reviews Various Artists
Triloka, 1996
Trance vol 3
+ Soulful! + the other reviewer got the wrong CD, this is Trance Planet
I first heard this CD in Cancun at LA Boom. I could not stop dancing. The beats kept me dancing all night as the rythm put me into another world. If you are a rookie Tekno fan or an addict like me, I highly recomend picking this C.D. up.
