Enjoyable vibes, especially all the flutes!! Glad it's on the list. Very peaceful
Ummm wasn't expecting this type of album in this list. Just simply string instruments, maracas, drums, kind of what you'd imagine being played in a valley.
Not my thing but interesting.
This album was a change of pace. Beautiful instrumentation.
Aint my thing
Very surprised at all the love this got. There were a couple of moments when I thought I might like it, but mostly it was just one of those cases of watering down a world or ethnic music to appeal to Western sensibilities, which I find not only disgusting but abhorrent.
Apparently, you can't actually listen to the original album on Spotify. What the site links to is a some sort of re-recorded version by Shivkumar Sharma's son? I was able to find a version on Youtube, though. Which is great because the version on Spotify (apparently a remake by his son) was trash. The ACTUAL album is hauntingly beautiful. I can see how this inspired a generation of musicians.
I liked this a lot more than I thought I would. Very peaceful and melodic without being overwhelming. "Stars Twinkling Within" is ethereal and I would like to live in that track if possible.
Traditional Indian flute and sitar
Yeah not bad... very chillaxing. Can see where four tet got some inspiration
