About me:

Please feel free to take a listen my Kung Fu Flute design and my 27 inch Zen Flute played by Miami musician and amazing bamboo flute player KamaNandi on my myspace player. I added some new music of myself playing my new Egyptian Flute on "The Restless Heart" recorded "live" in stereo in my studio with Jed Wagner on synths. Added new sounds from my group Kama Shivaya which features some Arabian flutes on "The Call" and on "Jai Saraswati". "Red Bird" features my Native style flute tuning. Added 3 "live in concert" sounds from my ethno-fusion project with Jed Wagner called Kama Shivaya. "Desert Moon" features the sounds of my Egyptian scale flute with 6 tone holes. Crimson Keep features my Arabian scale flute. "Offering" features my Native flute tuning. I am recording a new CD called "Forest Bamboo Flute Meditations Vol. 1" which will showcase the sounds of my unique bamboo flutes and will be released sometime in 2009. Professional musician from Ireland Raymond Robinson's review on my flute building work and a track with his flute I built for him I build various styles of Kill Bill Flute Replica's based on the late David Carradine's flute designs. I am known for replicating these flutes and sell them all over the world regularly. Striving to bring you the sounds of East, West and beyond! Bamboo flutes are healing medicine for the body, the mind and spirit and take you into the presence of the sacred breath. Bamboo flutes are wonderful tools to explore NADA YOGA, "sound meditation". If you want to explore a more peaceful life, and become more meditative in the mind, a bamboo flute is a great companion for your journey. I am a bamboo flute designer on the West Coast located in Spokane, Washington. You can purchase my flute designs off of my website. I am constantly exploring bamboo flute sounds, building and developing new flutes. I will continue to bring the world unique custom flute designs until I retire. My bamboo flutes are played by players all over the world. Ancient Anasazi flutea, Asavari raga flutse, Bhairava raga scale flutes, and many others. My wife Nicole is hand carving and painting some of the flutes, I am still doing some of the artwork and we are updating our online flute inventory on the website monthly. I am known all over the world for Thomas Richardson Music . Com. KORESHAKTI TRIBAL FUSION has manifested! A collective of talented artists joining together to produce theatrical tribal fusion belly dance shows in the area. Watch Spokane for flyers promoting our Belly Dance Shows in the Pacific Northwest area. Check out the Koreshakti myspace page, and the Kama Shivaya myspace page for more details and for sounds.

    In the concert of life, we are the interpreters of their complex symphony, sometimes performed in the matter, sometimes in the spirit. A dynamic contrast in search of a balance. The music is a special language for to express this reality. Let's move on, learning to live every moment.

    thank you***

    for      the bird-fly-high-flute-music
              unattached  to the life on the marcetplace
              with its unpredictable musical scenes
              flying over landscapes rivers and mountains
              the longing call for the lover
              and the meeting with the beloved...

              the space-flight-musical -instrument
              the flute
              the hollow bamboo
              symbol for the buddha...

    You da man.....just in case you..ve not sent the new flute, any chance you could put the initials AMK in the design? If it..s been sent already, no problem, i..ll have that design on the next flue I buy from you later in the year. Thanks so much and I look forward to getting some music from you as well. I hope to be going to west coast U.S next year, we..ll have to have a jam......all the very best, Tim
