Gongchime CD on cdbaby.
Gongchime has it's CD's address at http://www.cdbaby.com/gongchime.
It has received this review from Gerald Van Waes at Psyche Van Het Folk, Eastern Fusion Review.
A combination of gamelan with varied percussion and what seems like close, multi-colored acoustic arrangements. The feeling completely takes all elements from the east, which makes an unusual vision. A very enjoyable, fresh approach."
Others who have listened to it say they play it for meditation or martial arts work outs. If you've got Hindu gods and beings from the Buddhist pantheon in your house then you need a sound track to match.
My goal had been to create a Southeast Asian rainy jungle. People said they didn't really care much about that though. The reason they liked is was that they wanted meditation music that wasn't too slow and boring.
It turns out that you can put this on and work out or you can lie down and fall into a trance. Nothing is going to cause you to get up and turn a noisy, obnoxious part down.
If you drift into alpha or happen to see a small village in a Southeast Asian jungle in the rain among your visions, say hello to the shaman living there and tell him my job here is finished.
