MP3 Ron Bucknam - Heaven Metal
12 MP3 Songs
NEW AGE: Meditation, WORLD: Asian
Details:
I have been a drummer and lover of the percussion music of all cultures for many years. Growing up in America has meant access to many cultures'' traditions while living and learning in a culture of mass-multi-media with no particular roots. Actually, my father was a jazz musician and his mother sang opera - but I am of the first generation of players whose training involves listening to any music, from anywhere on the planet, without traveling there.
I set two parameters for the compositions on "Heaven Metal": that they be exclusively for metal percussion, and that they be the most beautiful music I could offer. The comparison to Gamelan is inevitable since I am employing mostly Javanese and Balinese instruments. However these songs are very much shorter, and each explores a different rhythmic or melodic motif. The music is complex enough to be a rewarding listening experience, yet hypnotic to the extent of aiding meditation. I find it medicinal (works wonders for headaches)! My song titles are listed on CD Baby but the CD cover list is left open for the listener to fill in whatever names come to them from their own experience with the music. Enjoy these samples but keep in mind that listening to several or all of the tracks in succession deepens the sense of peace and timelessness. Enjoy.
