This is the music soundtrack behind the film The Shift, starring Dr. Wayne W. Dyer.

Editorial Reviews

About the Author

Wayne W. Dyer, Ph.D., is an internationally renowned author and speaker in the field of self-development. He’s the author of more than 30 books, has created numerous audio programs and videos, and has appeared on thousands of television and radio shows. Many of his books have been featured as National Public Television specials. 

Ethan Lipton & his Orchestra play a brand of Alternative Americana that’s been likened to the music of Randy Newman, Leon Redbone, and Tom Waits. With melancholy wit and a hilariously cockeyed worldview, sepia-toned singer-songwriter Lipton and his bandmates (Eben Levy, Ian Riggs , and Vito Dieterle) deliver songs steeped in mixed-message sincerity and soul.

The piano music of Christopher Ferreira is at times reflective, at times melancholy. His lyrical melodies combine with a minimalist refinement that feels both nostalgic for the past and unique to the present. He has composed original music for a wide range of projects.

I don't know what got into Mr. One Star's craw, but if you have seen this movie, you will love this soundtrack. Not only is a great mix of Christopher Ferreira and Ethan Lipton's songs from the movie, but the way they intertwined the tracks is pretty cool as well. Ethan has that sort-of stumble-along Leon Redbone quality to his voice that I think is classic for the story songs that he sings. The last song on the CD and in the movie credits called "Song Inside" is one of the most light hearted deep meaning songs I've ever heard. Love it.

The piano pieces by Christopher Ferreira just take me back to the beach scenes from the movie. And if you haven't seen the movie yet, buy it. Its excellent. Wayne is just a class act. This soundtrack and movie couldn't have played well enough together if it were planned out. Its a perfect combo. :) Check out some of Ethan's other CDs as well. This CD made me want to investigate his music more and I'll tell ya... I love everything this guy has put out todate. Can't WAIT for his new one, that they are currently working on.

What a terrible selection on this CD.

I can't believe I ordered this without listening to it first. I made my purchase based on the description of the product and the reputation of Dr. Wayne W. Dyer.

HOW AWFUL. It is in the garbage.
