Lunar Khandro - Jai Larkan

If ever there was music to have in the background as you picnic at the Sea of Tranquility on the moon, this is it. The three tracks “Dark”, “Still”, and “Adrift” carry your being up and out, somewhere away from the everyday worries, inviting us to slowly dance amongst its infinite beauty even if for a little while.

Simone Townsend’s bewitching vocals ease into you, transporting you to another place, another time, effortlessly weaving within the relaxing, brilliant music of Jai Larkan.

The Review

This is ambient yoga music at its best. Original and fresh with a world music flavour, there’s not a single hint of cheesy cliché or overdone production here, pitfalls that can be rampant in this genre of music.

Embrace the Moment comprises six instrumental tracks that ebb and flow to a full 80 minutes of blissed-out sound.

Its subtlety and seamlessness make it ideal for yoga and other practices that require a certain level of groundedness and concentration. It ambles along inconspicuously in the background, gentle, calming, and uplifting, without being distracting.

While the album was created to enhance any yogic or therapeutic practice, you don’t have to be into yoga for it to appeal. It works equally well as an album of super chilled-out sounds that bring a relaxed vibe to any activity.

Play it while you write, create a work of art, hang out in the garden, cook dinner, do your tax or have a luscious massage — whatever the experience, it will definitely be enriched with this music as an accompaniment.

The masterminds behind the music are multi-talented Australian brothers Herrin and Jai Larkan, both successful musicians in their own right, who teamed up to write, perform and produce the album. They invited Chris Lane from Aussie band OKA to add gorgeous flute solos, a smart move, as the flute really adds a certain magic to Herrin’s and Jai’s subtle vocals, acoustic guitar, percussion, piano, keyboards and programming.

The interesting thing about this music is that it feels completely timeless and is highly accessible without sounding commercial. It transcends culture, sub-culture, language and age, so you could safely buy it for your partner, mum, grandma or second cousin twice removed and be guaranteed they’ll love it, because there’s simply nothing not to love about it.

Embrace the Moment has a kind of poetic beauty about it that seeps into your being without you noticing. Before you know it, 80 minutes is up and you’re pressing the play button again. And again…

Overall, it’s a nurturing sound journey grown out of a wonderful synergy between three highly accomplished musicians who obviously have a deep understanding of how to use light, shade and space to bring an enduring and captivating quality to their stunning musical arrangements.

Review by Leigh Robshaw

The scenes are from India and fit beautifully with the relaxing Piano music from the album Lunar Khandro. Download the album right here.

So, we created an 11 minute slide show that displays 29 of Nicole’s evocative pieces set to an atmospheric flute and piano soundtrack from the album “Embrace The Moment”.

As musicians, I think we can have some sense of where this type of creativity might come from but nevertheless it’s still something that makes us stop, and feel. Or look inside or something…

“My pastel drawings are spiritual and infused with positive energy so the viewer will be reminded of their own inner light and well being. I am American but have spent the past two years living and sharing my art in Tokyo, Japan. My work attempts to express and reveal the parts of life that exist beyond normal words and explanations.”

Meet Kit Cotter.

Jazz aficionado, keyboard player, guitarist, percussionist, vocalist and drummer. Oh and he writes songs and composes soundtracks! Have we missed anything out??

We first met Kit when he did some keyboards on Blossomheads album, Dream Beautiful. We were blown away.

His musicianship was fantastic and he had an inherent feeling for the part that would complement the song. He even created the main parts for a song called “We Were Friends”. He played the Keyboards, Guitar and brought the song into focus in one session.

Since then we have started working with him and not surprisingly he has an album in the works. Its called “Koan Of Silence – Chillorado #1″ . You will find some audio teasers below. He has also created a new sound called Chillorado. Its his own special brand of Jazz, Chill-Out and Soundtrack music inspired by a lifetime of listening and appreciating great composition and musicianship. Look out for Chillorado.com soon! We’ll keep you posted.

The next mp3 is from the epic 74 minute album, Dream Beautiful. A 7 year project of immense challenges and struggle has finally come to fruition for artist,

songwriter and eccentric, Greg Reid, aka Blossomhead. This song, Heaven In The Distance is one of the more mellow tracks but as always the lyrics demand a more attentive listen to extract the meaning.
