Details

Orchid-Star's Pete Ardron has come together with singer, snake and fire dancer and Kundalini instructor Kwali Kumara to produce an album which wears 2 hats equally comfortably. Each track is built round an 11 minute repeated mantra delivered in such a way that they can be used easily in a Kundalini meditation context but put aside whatever preconceptions that might give you - anybody familiar with Pete's solo work, his remixes for people like Afro Celt Sound System, Terra Nine, Trancient Dreams, Squazoid and others, and of course Orchid-Star will see the same ecstatic blend of psychedelic, world and classical, electronic and acoustic, in these six beautiful, intense musical journeys - this is most definitely also music for the listener (and dancer!) - psy-chill, dub, liquid drum and bass, progressive and other grooves wrapped in orchestral layers and sprinkled with Indian and Celtic colours.
