I have heard monk voices used before, but never like this. It starts out a little eastern, but then goes more or less rock'n roll. Back comes the eastern flute and it keeps moving in and out of influences from times and places. This is your trademark and your strength. Very well done, Alex!

You have a lot of different elements and sounds going on with this track and they all compliment each other very well. Very nice work!

Very intriguing fusion of far Eastern and contemporary themes that meld nicely into this grand sweeping soundtrack.
the percussion was especially enjoyable for me, as were the ending flute & string movements.

I like the fusion of ancient and modern styling. Excellent break around 2:00, definitely grabs our attention. Superbly composed and produced piece of music - both mystical and cinematic at the same time. Excellent!

I really like the layered rhythms here, providing the bounce and swing to make the track come alive. African, eastern, western; this is a big jambalaya of sound and I like it. There is also a hint of sadness to this as well, a mournful celebration, if that's possible. Bravo!

The production is pristine. Nice rhythm track. I hear the Eastern influence and also a Western classical music vibe to the arrangement for me. Always gotta love monks chanting as well. Very nicely done Alexander!

And yes, once again I feel a strong eastern touch in this one..... as Al wrote: "you seem to lean towards the Eastern music themes..." I agree.
Undoubtly I recognize a western drive too ( rythm & some harmony ) but the whole tune leads into a eastern-production. This is not a complaint my friend, of course not, but we already talk about that, you remember? ;)
Tell me did you use a Mellotron-like sytnh sound? Fantatstic mid-70´s synth sound ( i mean the strings sound ), exceptional the rythm base, I always envy your clear and straight rythm section Musan Dera, the production is crystal clear, all in all..... very good !! And the title/illustration are absolutely fitting the theme this time..... ;) ;)
Thanks for sharing your great music efforts wuth us!! :)

Tibetan monk’s chanting along with an interesting wind instrument introduces this intriguing track. Nice intro…then the introduction of the string arrangement that gives it a bit different vibe up until the break at the 2:00 mark where the woodwinds the underlining percussion takes center stage culminating with a grand orchestral arrangement. A wonderful eastern sonic palette Musan Dera. You seem to lean towards the Eastern music themes which are extremely well done.
Thanks for pointing me to your new one.
Music to get monks swinging has got to be powerful - and this is Alex ;) Crafty arrangement!
