Interesting New Age Trip

"Not the usual run-of-the-mill watered down bs.
This album in particular takes just enough drone-y bowl vibrations and thumb piano-y stuff and blends together equal parts light and dark with a strange runner of 'creepy' marbled throughout. Overall a must have. I rank it up there with my Hooteroll album for altered state listening. Only this has more of a 'spiritual' vibe to it. Don't be put off by the 'Dancing Dolphin' and 'Turquoise Turtle' titles!
I wish the guy that makes up Xumantra would revisit this sound more often as his other albums are either (somewhat) monotonous drones or (sorta) predictable, happy groove, new age type stuff."
