"Classifying this CD according to musical type was difficult. Kris DeLorenzi plays genre hopscotch on this remarkable recording. Yes, you can hear the sound of Native American music gone rock-cum-chillout. You can also hear Indian subcontinent influences. In between, you can hear touches of those mainstream Western artists who have breathed world music into their systems - Peter Gabriel and others. It is ambient in the sense of its groove but not in the Eno sense of slowly changing chords. I have tried using it as background music, and it doesn't function that way: it demands engagement. Some of the highly rhythmic melodies have forced their way into my attention, like some spiritual magnetism, in particular the title cut and "Comfort Me". I might have valued less vague content in places, but in my sheltered upbringing, I've never heard anything quite like this. It is an utterly extraordinary CD. " - David Faulkner
