Album Notes

World Trance Fusion (or maybe it's "jungle space jazz"). Real simple music for the feet and for the Heart.

We're going for a music that's both soothing and enlivening. That's because rather than building some music, we decided to try and grow some. The seed, the soil, the sky, they're the ones who know how to do this; we're just there to shape what they produce.

Check it out if you don't mind hearing some unidentified flying sounds. (Maybe it begins on the green earth in daylight, and evolves into the night, in the starry skies, deep inside...)


Bill Ross, Michael Kehn, Claire Wilson: djembes, dumbeks, & misc. handdrums, percussion, vocals. BR: synth. Guests: Ted Sillars, Djun-djun, hi-hat, handdrums; Ben Sheppard, flutes/vocal/percussion; Daniel Rowe, cello; Fran McConville, electric guitars; Brian Rolland, acoustic guitar; Brian MacDougall, handdrum.

all compositions (c) 2005 by Bill Ross
Recorded by Dave Cummings at Bluetone Studios in Somerville, Mass. (except the live tracks, from a performance at the Acorn Art Gallery, Marblehead, Mass., July 2003)

Perfect for when you need to relax and chill out. Lots of hand drums and percussion, cool electric guitar volume swells, and great singing.
