Traditional musical styles with some real art music built into it are on the menu here. This gets more energized as it continues and some definite world music themes are at play. It really gets driving before it’s over.

This number has some world music styled vocals in the mix. This cut has a good flow and plenty of artsy sound at its heart.

More traditional world music with vocals is on the menu here. This loses me to some degree on the vocal heavy sections. It’s just something I can really get into. The instrumental section after that drops away is so cool, though. That movement is extensive and really works so well. While this isn’t the longest thing her, at almost ten-and-a-half minutes long, it’s the second longest.

I really love the instrumental exploration on this track. It’s extremely cool. This one really explores some great art music territory and is one of my favorite pieces here.

Clocking in at close to 15-and-a-half minutes long, this is the epic of the disc. It’s also has some great world art music vibes. The percussion is really cool, but so is everything else here. This is definitely another standout.

The vocals return on this one. The cut has plenty of traditional sound in the mix and the instrumental accompaniment is incidental and barely there as those vocals continue to hold the piece. Eventually it shifts to strictly instrumental, and the cut elevates as it does.

This comes in purely percussive and it remains that way through to the end. This is an intriguing number, but not one of my favorites here. 

When you edit a track that’s nine-and-a-half minutes to get it to two-and-a-half, that’s a lot of editing. Yet somehow this works in both versions.
