Description
===========
Suzanne Ciani only gave us seven waves. Ashaneen ups the ante by giving us ten
as well as a new beginning. Impressionistic music that he composes by letting
it flow through him, this is certainly music to clear your mind or get a deep
tissue massage by. Falling into that bag of improv but disciplined, the music
feels like waves rolling in and rolling out with the kind of randomness only
the tides can provide. This is real new age music, old school. --Chris Spector -

''First Wave'' is a richly emotive composition that is able to provide
listeners with a compelling narrative without possessing any traditional form of
vocal accompaniment. The bold strokes that are taken on the onset of Waves of
Life ensure that listeners are on the edge of their seats from the onset. The
six-minute run time of this initial composition provides Ashaneen with ample
space to express the different twists and turns that will await listeners
through the eleven cuts on the title.
''Third Wave'' straddles the line between electronic and organic in a way few
artists can achieve. There is something that listeners can identify as existing
in everyday life (industrial area noises such as metal on metal, vibrations)
but something wholly separate from what one may find in real life. It is this
duality that keeps listeners attentive and eagerly anticipating what will be
presented to them in subsequent compositions.
''Fifth Wave'' and ''Sixth Wave'' are a delightful one-two punch that highlight
each other because of their considerable differences. While Ashaneen s hand is
steady in establishing a cogent statement for this duo (as well as the whole of
tracks on Waves of Life), the gulf between the overall sound and spirit of the
compositions cannot be stressed enough.
Waves of Life concludes with ''A New Beginning,'' an effort that not only
establishes the possible paths for Ashaneen in follow-up releases, but ties up
the different styles and approaches taken by the artist in a neat and orderly
bow. Ashaneen s latest speaks broadly to the human experience in a new and
exciting fashion. --James McQuiston, Editor, NeuFutur.
