"Global Theta" by Sue Scudder and Donna Aazura (New Age Artist from Colorado(CO))

"Global Theta" by Sue Scudder and Donna Aazura is a meditation CD designed to shift your mind into a state of peaceful existence in order to work toward world harmony. Musically the album is, of course, highly ambient. The synths combined with delicate piano lines start the process and maintain it as the soft female voice guides you through the auditory journey. The production quality of this album is good and it certainly achieves the correct mood and is well thought out in its purpose. The album features one track with narration and a second track without. It's a nice option to have, catering to whatever mood you may be in. So, if you are looking to find your way into a peaceful and relaxed state, give this CD a listen.

"Tumult" by Vincent (New Age Artist from Virginia(VA))

"Tumult" by Vincent is an imaginative instrumental CD that is, in a way, a conceptual album.The intent of this album is to reach into your mind and stir various emotions. The sound is worldly and yet traditional. The arrangements are definitely outside the norm. Since the CD is meant to envoke emotion, expect some romanticism, but also expect some ecclecticism. On that note, the arrangements are quite interesting, full and well-layered. Highlights are "Forest Glade Creatures, " which features an angelic harp and a very active woodwind arrangement. "The Tempest" is a wild and archaic blend of creative sounds. "The Takeover" is another big number and features some intense pipe organ and a cinematic flair. If you like John Williams with an interesting twist, you'll like this one.

"O Holy Night" by Elizabeth (Easy Listening/Spiritual artist from Oklahoma (OK))

"O Holy Night" by Elizabeth is a 3-song collection of spiritual songs that feature the incredible voices of Bet and Ashtyn Wallace. The strong and lilting rendition of an old favorite religious melody, "O Holy Night," brings the talent of both mother and daughter to light, and displays the especially beautiful mix of their voices when they harmonize. Both vocalists have pitch-perfect vibrant voices and clear diction which enhances their performances. The keyboard work at the beginning of "I Don't Wanna Go" gives a full appreciation of the strong backup work on this selection and blends extremely well with the gentle voices of the vocalists. If you enjoy beautiful spiritual music or emotionally-moving female vocalists, you will enjoy this CD.
