I saw Matt Butler perform last night, opening a lecture for Julia Butterfly Hill, the woman who sat for over two years in an ancient redwood tree in Humboldt County. Matt is a great performer - centered, clear, confident - and his message of love as a way of life is a beautiful one. Many activists I've seen perform are activists first and musicians second - and it shows! Matt is a world class performer - with a message. And, he can play didgeridoo and drumset at the same time! Even though this album is instrumental, he's a great singer too. I encourage you to support this artist - who is supporting the environment and the planet at large. The world needs more Matt Butlers!

This is great music for relaxing, meditating or getting a massage. It grooves, but it's spacious too. The title might suggest a new age album with nature sounds, but it's not that at all. Highly recommended!

I've been listening to this CD for about 2 months now. It's got a great groove - it's both relaxing and funky. I can chill out to it, write, think, do yoga, drive, daydream... I saw Matt Butler and the Redwood Project live for the first time a month ago. Amazing show. They totally jammed. Matt's opening on the digeridoo was one of the highlights for me. I strongly recommend this CD and band.

I put this album on close to bedtime and my kid just mellows out. The music has a lot of groove but is undeniably relaxing. I'd recommend it to other parents.

If you like yoga or dancing at all, you will love this CD. My yoga teacher uses it for teaching and I love it for listening. It's relaxing and invigorating at the same time.
