*********************************************************************************

Hiddeminside, one of my favorites over at Jamendo . . . always with a chill or dance at heart . . . free and smooth the music flows like air . .  like water . .  like balm over the heart and soul . . . 




*********************************************************************************
So much wonderful Portuguese guitar . . . with light and warmth . . .
uplifting . . . sentimental and yet with a joyful tone . ..  a little bit  of 
modern environment nestling in to add interesting tidbits to the
music . . . Overall a delightful album . . . 




*********************************************************************************

Silent the deep pain . . . lift up the hope . . . dream of what could be .  . . 
an electronic voice, like an angel sings to your heart . . .
be at peace . . . 



*********************************************************************************

The magic of deep space . . . enveloped in the sound of music and the inner vision
of the mind . . . a peaceful flow as all the glory of the Universe is displayed
before your ever seeking soul . . . Some of this stuff gave me chills.



*********************************************************************************

Exotic fusion . . . drawing the Eastern sounds through that of the Western . . .
quiet, peaceful and just plain beautiful with those breathy vocals!  Eastern music can
often sound so harsh to my ears but these were fantastically pleasant to relax to.



*********************************************************************************

I felt like bursting into applause after every piano piece . . . and the organ too, on occasion.
These are appropriate for dinner parties or background music for many occasions . . 
I enjoyed it as I read a book.



*********************************************************************************

Drama . . . the music, with resounding drums and clashes of cymbals drives the imagination
to the battle's side where the march is even and the distance is long.




*********************************************************************************

Quiet journeys . . . dreams so ethereal .  ..  floating in the clouds of forever . . .
The music is gentle to the ears of the listener . .  vibrating lovingly
in the beating heart . . . one find themselves walking effortlessly
on sandy shores . . .

Paris Memories by Rod Chase

***************************************************

Someday, I'll go back to Paris . . . 

In the meantime, I find music on Jamendo . . 
which I love to share with you!

********************************

Like distant memories and dreams 
of our long ago mothers and fathers . . 
the world was covered in strange dangers,
needing to be appeased, and the sky itself
where the gods abide . . . the wind must blow,
to give song to the trees and grasses
and the gods would listen and the people would dance . . .
where the sparks of the fire
reaching into the heavens
like incense . . .
let the stars grow . . . reflecting
the beasts of the field
and the fruit of the trees . . . 
music most fulfilling . . .

*************************************************

Powerful . .  the drums captured my feet and energies . . .
Nice long electronic pieces   .  . . psychotic in nature
Here I find a door . .  with an incessant knocking . ..  a slow
opening . . . a dark wind blows as if through the hallways
of a cave . . . beware . . . dimensions are different here!

**************************************************

Ambient and atmospheric as the listener hears the chatter
of a baby and other charming events in the background as the pianists
thoughtfully expounds on his instrument . . . Delightful
and delicious . . . a poetically lovely experience. . .  relaxing and beautiful!






***************************************************

With a kiss of jazziness . . . this music enters your heart with 
a warm touch and puts a smile on your face with it's bright and
sparkly, exuberant personality.





****************************************************

Hot and racy . . . this Spanish flavored guitar gives the
impetus to dance and smile . . . Loved it!





***************************************************

The title to this album was so intriguing that I could not help but sample it . . 
and this is what I heard . . . Energy with a capital "E"!  Electronic music
with a trancelike feeling . . great vibes and good feelings . . . let your hair down
and . . . dance!





***************************************************


Eclectic and vibrant!  The music felt like a trip around the world, a rip in the fabric of time . . . something like water filling in all the nooks and crevices . . .  music so full of life and loaded with creativity, emotion and dreams . . . Beautifully done!




****************************************************

In the silence of the night, listen for the music . . .

Basically, some very nice jazzy chill . . . traditional and upbeat . . . Always love this guy's stuff.


***************************************************





The piano is dramatic and emotional and the vibraphone gives an uniquely lovely, light. . . . bubbles in the sky kind of music. This album is full of upbeat, expressive, dramatic and sunny sounds.


****************************************************




The hidden sounds at sea . . . 
the shush of waves and wind and wing 
and the eternal breath
of Earth as she changes form and position . . . 
as the tides come and go . . .
and the seeking
of sound combs through 
finding dreams in deep caverns 
and the drip of water upon the foam.

******************************************************




These guys are spectacular with the didgeridoo and other powerful earthy sounds . . the drums and vocals of indigenous peoples . . . All their albums are excellent and this is the latest . . . ENJOY!!!
