Album Notes

STEPHEN KENT Pioneering didjeridu virtuoso Stephen Kent has done more than any other musician to bring the ancient Aboriginal sound into a contemporary context.

During a twenty-year career with the didjeridu, Kent has developed an approach that is unmistakably his own, exploring a remarkable range of playing styles in diverse musical genres. Along the way he has amassed a catalogue of over a dozen critically acclaimed CD's, including four solo releases and many others with his group projects Trance Mission, Beasts of Paradise and Lights In A Fat City.

REVIEWS

Astounding

I bought this CD almost solely for Khoomei song (being a fan of both didjeridu and throat singing). The rest of the CD is fantastic as well. Elders Lament is a wonderful piece, placing two droning instruments together in a harmony I would not have imagined.

Polished and eclectic

I love this CD. Two of my favorite instruments were used beautifully together. No jagged edges or awkward moments. Baraka is probably my favorite at the moment with its opening english spoken word, but Elders Lament with its combination digg and pipes will always be one I return to again and again. The transition from Oil to Water is another moment of pure pleasure. Thank you to all the musicians involved in creating this wonder.
