Hi.

 

From time to time people ask for recommendations for new artists or groups to listen to in terms of beautiful spiritual uplifting music. And whilst many people have heard of the more mainstream artists such as Enya, Yanni, Kitaro, Secret Garden and Medwyn Goodall etc i thought i should start a new post whereby you can add your favourite "spiritual" or "new age" or "uplifting music" here so that others could check out some new artists and benefit from that.

 

Some of my favourites in no particular order are:

 

2002 :  beautifully melodic new agey music

Aeoliah : music as if composed by the Angels

Scott Huckabay: this guy "channels" guitar and is often called the Trance Guitarist

Armik : flamenco guitar music with accompanying instruments - very happy, and upbeat and an amazing guitarist - guaranteed to make you feel good

Oliver Shanti and Friends - especially his Tai Chi Too album.

Medwyn Goodall  - many albums but i like Way of the Dolphin and Way of the Ocean

Deva Premal - one of the most beautiful female vocalists singing mostly Mantras in Sanskrit - very powerful and meditative!

Amethystium - upbeat new age sounds

Libera - young boys choir - absolutely heavenly - highly recommend them, will give you goosebumps!

Cantamus - a female version of Libera sort of - see above.

Lesiem - if you like a modern, Western and up-tempo CD of Monks singing that actually is great to listen to then this is one of the best male monk choir groups around.

Raphael - beautiful, gentle music

Nicholas Gunn - great modern Native American Indian influenced music.

Keiko Matsui - a Japanese piano player whose music is a combo of piano, jazz, new age etc but her stuff is very upbeat and the perfect background sounds that re very interesting and yet that you know nearly everyone will enjoy. Recommended.

Asha - male singer, often with guitar and syth etc...etc....very beautiful lyrics and songs!

 

Well, there's just a handful of mine, please add your own and let's learn about some great new musical artists from one another!

 

Bright Blessings!

Barron

      PS  That is where i first heard Scott Huckabay play live.  Actualy also where i heard the master sound healer Jonathan Goldman play too and James Tywman perform!  And a few other very talented artists too at one of the late Dr Joshua David Stone Wesak celebrations there.

  • The Cruxshadows - A darkwave band. A lot of their music is inspiring and thought provoking. Highly recommend.
    • Great post Barron!!

       

      I like to chill out when I am really stressed working with people all day with Fridrik Karlsson, very soothing.. My favourite artist is possibly Beethoven and I love Tchaikovsky.. at the right time.

      I also love Ravi Shanker, amazing and..

      Deva Premal..

      Guo brothers, flute players absolutely beautiful, haunting..

      Paul Horn.

      ..and many others..

       

      With love

  • Barron,

     

    There is also SHEILA CHANDRA whose music is special and healing. She is an Indian born in Britain, so the music has definitive Indian Classical influence yet is of a world music genre. Her voice is powerful and directly appeals to the heart of you. You can start out with her album "ROOTS & WINGS".

     

    For those who like instrumental Indian classical - I would recommend listening to Hariprasad Chaurasia (renowned Indian flautist) especially his album - "SOUNDS OF SILENCE" It has three pieces and all totally mind blowing meditative music.

    I would also recommend listening to Prem Joshua's "SKY KISSES EARTH" <--- all Sitar renditions.

    And of course there is Pandit Ravi Shankar's - "CHANTS OF INDIA" (it includes a George Harrison track). My favourite of this album is the last song at the end titled "Prabhujee"

     

    I also like Krishna Das - my most favourite of his bhajans is "Har Har Mahadeo Shambho".

    with intent,
    much love, light and laughter,

    Asavari.

  • Oliver Shanti & Friends 
    I have been listening to this band since 1998, and I never grow tired of their music. His genre is world music that is healing... he has excelled himself in Native american music, his best album in the native american genre is "WELL BALANCED". I absolutely love his other album "TIBETIYA" which has buddhist sounds and harmonics.... but at the heart of the heart nothing to beat his album "LISTENING TO THE HEART" which is inspired from music composed by my dear beloved guru, Sri Paramhansa Yogananda. Listening to the heart is great meditative music, it takes you directly to the theta level, if you use it as an aide to meditation.

    Check out his music, I bet you will not be dissappointed. Listening to his music over a period brings you immense amount of deep spiritual healing.

    much love, light and laughter,

    Asavari.

    • Thank you Asavari.  I agree with you. For newcomers to Oliver Shanti & Friends you could always check out their best of:

      Circles of Life : The Best of Oliver Shanti


      • I have known about this for a year now, and I was as shocked as you when I first discovered it. But whatever he may have done, his musical creations are untouched by the negativity. His music is by far the bestest I have ever heard, and the sounds are pure.

         

        I am just compelled to say here what a sadhu i know in the himalayas said to me once, when I tool objection to his marijuana smoking. My question was, why is it necessary to smoke pot to attend transcendence. His answer was "mere avgunon ko mat dekho, mere gunon ko dekho" meaning literally ---> do not look at my bad habits (misdeeds), look at my good habits (good deeds).

        It was a big lesson. As humans we always like to find fault in everything that is beautiful, and we relish in the negativity of it. Its as though we are always looking for that bit of failure to mar the beauty of creation. I myself indulged in this a lot, till that one sadhu questioned me oh so lovingly and looked at me with eyes full of love.

        I am not saying that Oliver Shanti's heinous act should be condoned. All I am saying is that his action should not take away from the brilliance of his music. Because that creation is truly absolute in its being, and it really serves the purpose of healing.

        Its the same with that director Roman Polanski. Btw, I have seen pictures of Oliver Shanti on his cd's, and the guy in the glass cubicle in your photo is not him. But the child abuse story is true.

        Asavari.
