Lynne Bronstein, All Music Guide, February 22, 2002

Dance tracks featuring the didgeridoo's guttural sound, used to flavor synth-based trance music. "Outback music with a backbeat."

Powerfully moving stuff (and I mean for the joints), a grand opening chapter to every book of beat within.

An excellent CD of world music, featuring the exotic didgeridoo, set to trance and dance beats. Totally trippy music.

Product Description

Driving World-Beat Ethno-Fusion! - Pumping rhythms of the wild... droning, eternal voices of an ancient future… exotic nature sounds and rapid-fire percussion create an inter-dimensional journey into mindless spirit. Earthy didgeridoo with Australian aboriginal voices blend with UK techno-shamanic, traditional Native American Peyote chant, NYC trip-hop and Afro-Caribbean tribal rhythms... all fused into a thrilling dance compilation.

This review is from: Didgeridoo Trance Dance (Audio CD)

I was looking for a CD full of high-energy music. Wow! This one is awesome.

I'm constantly looking for great high-energy music for use when I'm working. This CD is almost too perfect in that regard as it is the type of music I can put on, go to work, and POOF -- 4 hours vanish.

My feet are dancing, my fingers are drumming, and my mind is in the zone. Great beat, nice didgeridoo, and awesome percussion throughout.

This sound reminds me of the high energy music that would emerge if you could somehow mix the music from the Afro Celts, Nomad (say ASIN: B000001ZBG), and Deep Forest. Delicious :)

I'm no trance expert so can't comment on its "trance purity", etc.

I'm no dancer so I can't comment on the type of dance genre this music best fits. Apparently I'm thinking of becoming a dancer, though, as I seem to have this urge to go dancing through the house like a wild man whenever this CD is playing :)

Summary: I agree with the summary on the back of the CD, "Pumping rhythms of the wild ... droning, eternal voices of an ancient-future ... exotic nature sounds and rapid-fire percussion create an inter-dimensional journey into mindless spirit". I wish I would have said that :) ***Highly Recommended***

This review is from: Didgeridoo Trance Dance (Audio CD)

This CD features a compilation of Techno-music supported by a little didjeridoo here and there. As such it is really not bad. However, both the title and the album description state or imply that the music has something to do with meditation and/or spiritual practices. This is not true: it's Techno-music in its purest tradition. The synthesizer-generated music is very flat with little or no harmonics.

This review is from: Didgeridoo Trance Dance (Audio CD)

Many trance music cds have similar instruments, just different rythms and some even with words. The didgeridoo experience is different in its "african beat" origins. There are no words, just human sounds and vibrating musical instruments. May I suggest you listen to a few sample songs, to get a feeling. If this sound is very different, then you will eventually become amazed at its inspiring results -- when you listen to it for a while. Not for a crowded party room, but for one on one listening. Can not be used as background music either. So, be ready to get consumed into the trance and melodies. Maybe it will bring out the animal in you.
