Psicodreamics has conjured the muses to create a new musical tale titled "Ancient Wisdom", an album inspired by Celtic myth and the wisdom of the ancients that will transport us in time and space to know from the ritual of the Druids and pagan beliefs to the veneration of Mother Earth and the wisdom of nature. All this through eleven tracks of the most varied styles, which mixes ambient, downtempo and world fusion with suggesting titles like Samhain Ecstasy, Druids trance or Beltane Moon among others. Be seduced and dive into a world of sensations that take over your mind and senses and will change the way we perceive the reality around us. Only available on digital download from CDBaby, iTunes, Amazon mp3 and the best digital stores.

One of the exciting aspects of curating a netlabel series is watching new artists emerge into the small, but talent-rich world of ambient music. Joel Sutton, to my knowledge, has not been releasing ambient music for long. Yet, the ambient world has embraced his work and warmly welcomed him. It was just mid-2010 when I first started noticing his podcasts, followed on by his debut release, Iceberg and then in 2011, Flood.

I was therefore quite excited when Joel answered my call for submissions, and even more excited when I heard his submitted tracks. Joel has graced the Complex Silence Series with two mesmerizing ambient longform tracks, light and dark. They fit perfectly into the schema of the Series, yet each track is a beautiful sonic landscape painted in a unique and minimal way and perhaps even more importantly, in a spontaneous way.

Joel writes about his submission:

“The construction of Complex Silence 19 was very much a subconscious process for me. Usually I start a new project with a specific theme in mind. Not this time. Time was short and I had to get down to business. In the end though it was actually quite liberating to just start up my laptop and just let things unfold. Come what may. These two tracks are the result.

Exactly what my mind was up to on those days back in July 2011 I’m not really sure. I recommend that you think of these pieces as sonic abstract paintings with which the listener is free to make their own interpretation. Hence the generic names “One” and “Two”. Play these tracks in whatever part of your life it feels right to do so. Let them stray every which way and, regardless of what you encounter, may you have a pleasant journey.”

Hello all,

I wanted to share a new song (not release yet) called Terri. This song will be featured on my next CD called Family Values. I am targeting December 2011 for a release date.

Terri is my sister and she passed away in June, 2011. This song is my way of honoring her and celebrating her life. Three more of my family members also passed away this year and I have also created a song for each of them. They will all be on the new CD as well.

If you happen to have a spare minute (or 6) in this busy world, I hope you are willing to share your time and take a listen. I greatly appreciate your time. thank you.

Sincerely,

Craig Karolus

Dear Circle Friends and Members,

It's my pleasure to introduce you to Hennie Bekker's new album, Spectrum - An Anthology of Relaxing Instrumental Music.

Spectrum takes us back through Hennie Bekker's catalog, covering some of his best musical moments of the last 20 years. Amongst the fourteen tracks from eleven of Hennie's most memorable albums, you'll find original, remastered versions of timeless tracks including "Heart of Africa" from the first  African Tapestries album Temba, and "Spring Rain", title track from the multi-platinum-selling first album in the Kaleidoscopes series. While Spectrum is a celebration and showcase of Hennie’s remarkable strength as a multi-genre artist, the album is still representative of his ability to evoke a feeling of peace in his music, while still incorporating signature melodies, whether it be a pure New Age track, or a fusion of world and ambient soundscapes. Our thanks go out to Suzanne Doucet for her invaluable assistance in making this album happen.

Spectrum is available on Hennie's Official Website, iTunes, as well as all other major CD and download stores. Retailers can order the album from our US distributors, New Leaf, Clay Pasternak Inc., and in Europe from Silenzio, and direct from Abbeywood Records in Canada.

Hennie has uploaded the album to his profile, but I'm including a player below.....happy listening, and enjoy the rest of your weekend :)

Cheers,

Steven
