CD Reviews

The Joy of Karunesh

ShriDurga | 12/24/2006

(5 out of 5 stars)

"A collection of placid world-fusion grooves redolent of India, perfect for winding down and opening up. Similar in style to 2004's Call of the Mystic, Joy of Life finds German-born producer and multi-instrumentalist Karunesh slowing things down just a bit, reining in some of the synthesizers and electronic beats, and giving more space to the acoustic performers. Among those featured are fellow spiritual travelers from the occident, Govi and Chinmaya Dunster, who bring their skills with the sarod and sitar to some of the album's more upbeat tracks. On hand from the Call of the Mystic sessions is violinist Avinash, as well as Bikram, the bansuri player whose plaintive and at times playful flute is the central voice in these recordings. Captured in Karunesh's Hawaiian studio, The Joy of Life is a quiet album radiating warmth, comfort, and peace, and will be appreciated by those who favor a touch of spice in their ambient/newage music."

Soul Stirring

Sita Halliburton | SF, California | 03/27/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Listening to Karunesh's "Joy of Life" is a soul-stirring experience. Each cut is an intricate blend of haunting vocals, violin, guitar and subtle ethereal percussion dancing beautifully with Karunesh's masterful devotional flute melodies. Appropriately titled, this is spiritual "jammin'" at its best. Inspiring."

"Beautiful music!. Takes you on a journey and I dont seem to get tired of it. Great combination of Sitar, Indian Violin, haunting voice and drums. Must listen if you like East Indian theme."
