5.0 out of 5 stars Writings by Serge Kozlovsky, February 6, 2011

This review is from: Sacred Memories of the Future (Audio CD)

«Many times this planet has been visited by other planetary beings. They have left so many landmarks...» -- these words by Indian Teacher Osho are placed in the cover of this album. Maybe its compilers hint us that the very special and mysterious music by the Australian aboriginal people, which is presented in the CD, has an extraterrestrial
origin. And it is really so unusual, that it takes one's breath away!

Main participant of this most fascinating tale is the instrument named didgeridoo. Aboriginal people from the northern part of Australia use it. Didgeridoo is a long wooden tube made from the branch of a eucalyptus tree, which has been hollowed out by termites. The Aboriginal people use natural bee's wax, which is applied to the mouthpiece at the narrow end of the tube. And it should be said that the didgeridoo creates constant drone sound, which made by circular breathing. These guttural sounds really remind echoes of the long gone civilizations, which existed in our planet or the messages from far-away, unknown worlds.

Still, the album is not just a collection of the music by Australian aboriginal people. It is addressed to the broadest circle of listeners. Modern electronic processing and ambient vocals introduce in the sounding of the album more space atmosphere, and various nature sounds serve as a perfect background to the timbre originality of the didgeridoo.

I would like to add that I am very glad: at last I've got an opportunity to make a review of the CD released by the New Earth Records company. The matter is that, due to my deep confession, this company is one of the best of the world music companies releasing the new age music. Albums released by the New Earth Records completely correspond to high goal of the company: they are really 'music for people on the path'. This is music for those who are in constant spiritual search, for those who wants to feel though music something inexpressible, belonging to the very roots of the being. Prem Joshua, Al Gromer Khan, Hariprasad Chaurasia, as well as other artists recording their music in the New Earth Records are not only perfect musicians, but also people on the path, those who bring here the aesthetics of new, better world!

Well, no more words. I strongly advise you not to miss 'Cybertribe' -- the ancient music of Ausralian aboriginal people, where the mystical sounds of distant past call us boldly go into the unknown future and understand for a short time all that beautiful, which was lost, but can revive in this planet!
