A mesmerizing blend of ancient instruments, haunting voices, and whispers of Balinese and Indian wisdom traditions.
Loren and Markâs electro-acoustic debut merges the ambient soundworlds of Southeast Asia, North & South America with the spiritual influences of Bali and India. One part droney soundscape, one part tribal deliberation, and one part ethnological exploration,Tree of Lifeexpands into a transformative experience. Lorenâs deep understanding of Balinese music, coupled with his expertise in sound engineering, effortlessly complements Markâs Bansuri flutes and harmonic overtone vocals and chants. Supported by Sarangi maestro Pankaj Mishra from India, and up-and-coming percussionist Max Link from Germany, the release follows up on ideas sparked during Loren and Markâs first time on stage together at SoundQuest Fest 2010 in Tucson, Arizona.
âThe Tree of Life is a nearly universal symbol found in many different spiritual and mythological traditions around the world,â Loren explains. âIt symbolizes the interconnection of all life to our planet. From these many different traditions the names for each song were taken, many of which literally mean the Tree of Life.â
Tree of Lifeis a mesmerizing blend of ancient instruments, haunting voices, and whispers of Balinese and Indian wisdom traditions woven together with ambient field recordings; it takes the listener on a journey of life and its endless interconnections of this planet.
