  • Influences

    NATURE, SOUNDS of earth, wind and fire - FREEDOM and INDIVIDUALITY. Birds, Mammals, SPACE - the RESONANCE of ambient soundscapes, ENERGY - music which triggers extra layers of elevated AWARENESS, music which contacts the heart, head and spirit. Music which leads to an after-feeling of INNER PEACE, culture and freedom. MUSIC which for a few seconds defies gravity.
  • Sounds Like

    This category does not encourage individuality. Asking artists to typecast themselves according to others is like putting birds in the same cage. There is nothing pompous about individuality.
