| | Tribal Trance Didgin' In The Dirt CD Tribal Trance Discography of CDs
The name of this trio of musicians tells it all-- DIDGIN' IN THE DIRT is entrancing in every way. The repetitive rhythms of the hand drums and the drone of the ancient aboriginal wind instrument, the didgeridoo, characterize nearly all nine pieces. Evoking the mood and sounds of aboriginal music from Australia, these musicians bring to life the mystique of tribal music and the silent spirit of the land itself.
Percussively similar to Hindustani Qawwal music, this music essentially seeks the same union with the Creator and the unseen world. However, use of soprano saxophone and keyboards, while sparing, takes this music outside the pale of strict or authentic tribal music. Nonetheless, DIDGIN' IN THE DIRT provides a soundscape that invigorates the soul and encourages a kind of rigorous introspection, its meditative power lying in the general aura that seems to surround these compositions. DIDGIN' IN THE DIRT quiets mental chatter and instead pulls the listener in the direction of the visceral and the primal. Highlights include the opening track, "River," and "Afternoon Storm."
Recorded at AH Studios, Old, Australia in January 1996.
Tribal Trance: Rodger (vocals, drums); Nelson (flute, saxophone); Matt (didgeridoo); Penny, Andrew (keyboards).

Didgin' In The Dirt album
 $21.00   
Comprised of 18 tracks culled from the singer/composer's first three decades, The Very Best of Enya was pieced together by the artist herself, along with longtime collaborators Nicky and Roma Ryan. Luckily, the trio seems enamored by most of the same songs that the general public is, resulting in one of those rare "greatest-hits" collections that goes deep without depriving the listener of the essentials. With tunes like "Orinoco Flow," "Caribbean Blue," and "Book of Days" in the pot and out of the way, it's easier to appreciate hidden gems like "Cursum Perficio," "Boadicea," "Trains and Winter Rains," and "Anywhere Is." Also notable is the inclusion of "May It Be" and a previously unreleased version of "Aníron (I Desire)," both of which originally appeared on the soundtrack for the first chapter of Peter Jackson's beloved Lord of the Rings trilogy. ~ James Christopher Monger

Didgin' In The Dirt CD music
$14.29
A heavenly soundscape, SANCTUM SANCTUORUM, Constance Demby's electronic portraits of pious yet romantic devotion, was originally written to accompany the film FACES OF CHRIST. As with Demby's previous works, her strengths here are in blissfully spare arrangements (including bells, harp, male and female Gregorian-style chants) and confident use of silence, pauses, and slow-pacing. These elements, combined with her knack for moving melodies, create a sound that is utterly solemn and yet filled with an indescribable, supernatural joy. Every piece creates a warm, light-filled sanctuary of impenetrable repose that is frequently visited by angelic voices announcing their arrival with hushed incantations or a sweetly sung "Hallelujah." This music is a sure-bet for any purpose that requires turning off the chaos of this world and going somewhere else.
Sanctum Sanctuorum is Constance Demby's companion to Faces of the Christ. She built this set from the basics of that CD. She makes it quite clear that this ...

| | Nicholas Gunn Through The Great Smoky Mountains: A Musical Journey CD (2002)
Didgin' In The Dirt album
$14.09
The third installment of Nicholas Gunn's National Park-themed albums guides us through the beauty of Southern Appalachia. Gunn writes dramatically structured instrumentals for keyboards and flute, conjuring summits and valleys in bold strokes rather than wispy pastels. He alters the mood of each song with judicious use of percussion, and allows little room for the repetition or monotony that can infect an album of pop instrumentals.
The mixed ethnic character of the songs echoes (bit does not mimic outright) that of the area's original Cherokee and Scotch-Irish inhabitants. "Trail of Tears," a heart-rending dirge for flute, piano, and Native drum, addresses the savage ousting of the Cherokee by Andrew Jackson's government in the early 1800s. In "Passage Through Ancient Relics," the flutes pretend they're bagpipes ...
| | Winds Imaginary Direction Of Time CD (2004)
Didgin' In The Dirt CD music
$9.69 
Winds bring an equivalent mix of classical strings and metallic brawn to this album, although they fortunately don't fall into a time-honored rut of over-the-top guitars and solo virtuosos. This is true on the melodic "What Is Beauty?," which mixes a bit of Queensrÿche, System of a Down, and Anathema throughout. A Roger Waters-circa The Wall delivery moves the song further toward a metal slant. Carl August Tidemann has a nice solo here without the classical guitar tone. "Sounds Like Desolation" opens with a disjointed piano solo before the brief instrumental morphs into the guitar-heavy "Theory of Relativity." The softer David Gilmour-like solo is another great asset before they up the sonic ante. What works for Winds is the band's ability to toe the line between strong arrangements that maintain a healthy amount of credibility and originality. Perhaps they venture down the same path one too many times, however, especially on the somber but orchestral "Visions of Perfection," bringing to mind Metallica's "Nothing Else Matters" to a certain extent. The delayed harmonies on the song also give it a Queen-ish flavor. This is also heard in Tidemann's solos on the effort, recalling an early Brian May. "The Fireworks of Genesis" has an edgier style going for it, with the rhythm section building on each verse. The strings are unfortunately a bit of overkill on this studio-perfected song. One also expects them to break ...
