| | Ah*Nee*Mah Grand Circle CD Ah*Nee*Mah Discography of CDs
 (2 Customer Reviews)
Ah*Nee*Mah is David Arkenstone and Diane Arkenstone. Grand Circle, their third CD, adds nothing to the available discography of Native American music. The effect is similar to Cusco, a German ensemble, performing South American music. It comes across as superficial. The Arkenstones are talented musicians, so the performances have technical merit. There are dozens -- perhaps hundreds -- performing Native American music more effectively and soulfully. While this is an enjoyable CD, it is also an unnecessary CD. ~ Jim Brenholts

New age synthesist David Arkenstone and his wife Diane are engaging these days in projects that are more exotic and earthy than the fare in David's general catalog. For the same label, they've recorded Trance World and this project, which is presented as a tribute to the peoples that inhabited the Four Corners region of the United States many years ago. Quite simply, these spiritually rich cultures that flourished in ancient times left a legacy of enchantment and mystery -- and the music here attempts to capture that pure ...

| | Kitaro An Enchanted Evening CD (1995)
Grand Circle album
$12.35
AN ENCHANTED EVENING was nominated for a 1996 Grammy Award for Best New Age Album.
Released in the mid-'90s in conjunction with a video of the same name, AN ENCHANTED EVENING is a live recreation of most of Kitaro's 1994 guitar-heavy album, MANDALA. Sensitive renditions of "Silk Road" (Kitaro's most-record tune) and the sweeping "Heaven and Earth," from the soundtrack of Oliver Stone's film, round out the program.
The live ensemble (including a violinist, bassist, and didgeridoo player, in addition to Kitaro's keys, guitars and flutes) has the dynamic sense of a great jazz band, feeding off each other's inspiration and the excitement of the crowd. As always, the music shifts regularly from quiet, reflective passages to plosive thunder, usually within the same song, reminding us that there's no soft-volume requirement for spiritual music.
For over a quarter century, Japan's Kitaro has been an internationally recognized icon and globally acclaimed composer and musician. Influenced early on by American rock and R&B, Kitaro began experimenting with synthesizers and a rainbow of unconventional sounds in the mid-'70s. His pioneering fusion of electronic artistry, traditional Japanese forms, and pop-inflected Western idioms created a lush, harmonic, and poetic sound that won the now legendary artist a huge international following. 1980's Volume 1 in the revered Silk Road series is considered an all-time masterpiece, with subsequent volumes only adding to its luster. '87's GRAMMY-nominated The Light Of The Spirit, a collaboration with Grateful Dead drummer Mickey Hart, exceeded sales of two million in the U.S. alone, elevating Kitaro's presence Stateside to an unprecedented degree. 1992's transcendent Dream, made with Yes' Jon Anderson, was also a smash, and other highlights are too numerous to single out.2000's Thinking Of You, which online music bible allmusic.com called "one of the most beautiful CDs of all time," won a GRAMMY for Best New Age Album, and Kitaro is universally ...
| | Carmen Consoli L'Eccezione CD (2002) (Import) Italy
Grand Circle CD music
$46.15
While Carmen Consoli may not be well known outside of her native Italy, she is certainly one of the biggest and most respected artists within her own country, regularly selling out concerts and garnering admiring reviews from critics and fans alike. Her 2002 studio album, L'Eccezione, is jazzier and more controlled than her rock-laden Stato di Necessità or Mediamente Isterica, showing a mature lyricist and musician who is more willing and more comfortable delving deeply and more intimately into the complexities of life. "Mulini a Vento," perhaps the best track on the record, is both pretty and haunting, and accents Consoli's expressive and distinctive voice as she discusses the transient nature of things, while "Moderato in Re Minore" is the depressingly beautiful, nearly balladic tale of a lonely philosophy professor who realizes that he has nothing in his life but his books. Equally good are the harder and more spiteful criticisms of the superficiality and hypocrisies of Western ...
| | Mayday Parade Tales Told By Dead Friends CD (2006)
Grand Circle music CDs
$6.29
Florida-based rock sextet Mayday Parade falls squarely in the center of the emo pack on their Fearless debut, Tales Told by Dead Friends. Seeing as the band came together from a merger between two popular local bands, the three guitarists and three vocalists in its ranks aren't really a surprise. But with such a large crew on board, Mayday's overall sound should be much fuller sounding than it is on this EP, instead ...
