Medicine Songs

This is a mix of what I'm calling Brazilian devotional music. The vast majority of the country is Catholic, but the Christian faith is often fused with a deep nature awareness. It's hard to generalize a country as large and diverse as Brazil, but certainly the nature here is quite strong and I feel like much of the population is proud of that. The songs on this mix are sung by a sub-culture of people who spend a lot of time in nature and have cultivated a strong sense of connection with the earth. Many of these songs are sung in a mantra like way, like devotional hymns, often singing praises to nature, sometimes specifically evoking a nature spirit, or Orisha, like Yemanja, Oshun, or Nana. These names have come from African religions like Yoruba. A really interesting fusion has come about between African, indigenous, and Christian faith. Brazil is an incredibly diverse place and a rich culture. I hope I was able to convey just a small but special part of it.

Dew Drop ~ Canções Do Coração ~ Brazilian Songs Of Prayer

This set was recorded on Christmas Day somewhere up a small tributary of the Amazon river in what initially seemed liked the middle of nowhere, but in fact, as I later realized, was actually the center of the entire universe. Much appreciation to Eve and Diogo for bringing many of these healing songs into my life and for inviting me down to the Amazon to visit them this winter

Dew Drop ~ Canções Do Coração ~ Brazilian Songs Of Prayer Vol. 2

A collection of healing songs of prayer from Latin America, with much inspiration coming from Peru. Of course there's a fusion happening here, with much cultural cross-over between the Andes and Amazonian regions, and influences from beyond, such as Europe and North America. Indigenous music has long incorporated certain instruments from elsewhere like guitars, but now we sometimes even find African drums and Indian sitars. The healing plant medicine traditions of the Amazonian region have become blended with the Andean world view with Pachamama and their mountain deities, melded with Christianity, and now even with influences coming from Eastern Yogic philosophy and mantra style songs of prayer. Most of these songs are being sung in Spanish, with a splash of indigenous languages such as Quechua or Yawanawa. Two artists that played a prominent role in this mix are Danit and Rainer Scheurenbrand, both with several gems on this mix. Cover art by Luis Tamani. Thanks to all the medicine!
