Donna Welsh: WellBeing (Australia)

This exceptional compilation brings together various multicultural musical expressions from diverse countries to create an incredible listening experience. The aim of the album is to take you on a journey through mystical landscapes, achieved through captivating vocal harmonies and a range of delicious sounds. Return to Serenity may be the journey you need if you are feeling stuck or lack energy.

Ben Ohmart: The Muse's Muse

For me, the cd begins at track 2, when ‘Cloud Mountain’ by Gabrielle Roth & the Mirrors shines its complex but relaxing light on the eastern new age elements and subtly changing rhythms that bite only as hard as rippling water on the ankles.

Then there is Secret Life’s ‘La Melodie de Son Amour’ that tenderly caresses with acoustic guitar, windswept sounds and an ever so slight boogie feeling among the cadence and vague electronic sounds that lead in the vocals from a woman singing – in some language. It’s a beauty, and easily one of the very best tracks on a very fine album.

You need to hear this one. It slowly builds a bridge from new age to world beat. But it’s a safe, strong overpass sharply constructed with wood, hands, and the sweat of some very fine musicians.
