Name: Aquarian Loops by liquidterrain
Duration: 3 min 46 s
Description: I was casually improvising and building up a collection of a dozen live loops. I was pleased by the result and was about to end the whole thing when I decided to hit "record" and capture the result. This is it. The only instrumentation is donso ngoni (Bamabara hunters' harp), likembe and sanza (thumb pianos) all through digital processing. No synths, drums, samples.

Yeah... You gotta hit "record". Seriously! It's a thing (as you know). I'm glad you did. This is my favorite work of yours in a long time. Very nice.

I made this last week and figured I'd let it go quickly; can't hold onto a moment too long eh. 

Hope you feel it :>

Peacekeeper's Countdown

Learning how to play and improvise over the complex chords in this song was laborious, and required much patience over a few months. 
	I concentrated on making each instrumental solo sound unique, thereby making myself sound like different musicians; yet another challenge. 
	Composing and recording this song was a beautiful journey, because I witnessed Cosmic Consciousness creating the song while using me as the instrument. I revere Cosmic Consciousness in the name Guhya Rupini, which means ‘the mysterious One’. We are all a mystery.

Guhya Rupini - The mysterious One

all sounds, except for the clarinet obviously, were made on a Gibson SG Special thru a Fender Super Reverb amp. (and mic’d), with no electronic processing. i did use a 1970’s DeArmand passive vol./tone pedal for fading the guitar in and out. i used pieces of metal, brushes, glass and a sponge to create the sounds on the electric guitar. this piece was produced by Thomas Newman in the latter 80’s i believe, or perhaps the early 90’s. and there is probably a little digital reverb. it is on the CD of the same name released by Cold Blue Music around 2001.

2 Maria Falling Away.aiff

The Sanskrit word Satcitananda that is used in this song is another name for Primordial Consciousness

21 Bhajans for my lord

Never born; Never die

The only commentaries I have for this song are: No words.

The Passion For Compassion

We literally pulled out all the stops on this one. This is another track from the recording session we did last summer in Harkness Chapel. Enjoy it now--we'll take this one down eventually and include it on our upcoming album.
