This recording is very poor done. Basically, its a beach recording of wind and waves. However, I doubt a wind screen was used (or the record levels were way too high) because strong wind and wave crashing consistantly and frequently, cause saturation and distortion. Very annoying. More like a Zen Supprise, not a Zen Sunrise. This was my second and last Serenity Series purchase.

We listened to an excerpt before ordering. The CD was exactly what we wanted. A low rumbling, rolling chant quality with bells and chimes over a wind background. We play the cd as backgroud for work and relaxation. The feeling I get from it is of a temple filled with monks in deep meditation. There is no singing or lala sounds. I loved the realistic (maybe unrealistic) quality of it.

this is a great cd! produced by suzanne doucet and chuck plaisance, it combines soft bowls and synths with nature samples - emphasis on the samples - to generate a soundscape for relaxation and meditation. this cd is purely for solo listening with whatever enhancements are available (candles, incense, headphones, etc........). it is great for yoga, deep listening, serenity (duh!) and getting in touch with a higher power.

I was really disappointed in this CD. The quality was terrible and all you could hear was static in the background. I put the volume all the way up on my stereo and still could not hear it clearly. I am glad I bought this with a gift certificate and did not use money out of my pocket. Would not recommend.
