Featured here is the 2-CD collection entitled Dreams of Gaia, which features twenty-four of the finest nature recordings from nineteen soundscape innovators. This new breed of place-inspired artists enriches our sense of the connections – and the rifts – between humanity, nature, and spirit. Living in a highly visual world, humans often forget to listen carefully to the sounds of nature and to the general environment around them. Disc One is a real ear-opener, featuring surprising and engaging natural soundscapes, two excursions into urban soundings, and a taste of composing with transformed field recordings. Disc Two is more subtle, asking the listener to enter into a state of deep listening. It features longer cuts, arranged as a day cycle, from pre-dawn to the middle of the night, with each voicing of the planet being long enough to begin to cast its own particular spell. Here, you'll get a taste of the deeper purposes behind the work of this group of extraordinary listener/composers. This collection of two CD’s also includes a 48 page booklet that discusses each of the inspired tracks.
