Chuck Jonkey
In Java and Bali an amazing number of instruments are constructed from bamboo. Played in ensembles featuring drums, flutes, gongs, xylophones (to name a few), the music is rhythmic, complex and infectious. Chuck Jonkey travelled extensively recording live native performances (most often used to accompany the telling of spiritual tales through dance) for presentation on this unique disc. Spiritually motivated music of the highest order.

Lotus
Utterly enchanting and gently hypnotic, Lotus is a seamless blend of Southeast Asian music with contemporary urban beats, sensual grooves and heavenly vocals infused with the mystical sounds of Balinese paradise. Alex Edenborough's sultry vocals drift through the gamelan sounds, lifting the listener above everyday reality. It's an album for living, loving...or just chilling. Heady and intoxicating, like an oriental version of Enigma. Co-produced by Adam Plack
