DESCRIPTION
==================
This album is an impressive synthesis of four recent albums by Karunesh, and therefore a great deal and a good introduction to this very distinct "new age"/world/electronic artist. I have been collecting the best of this kind of music for more than three decades, now (Steve Roach, Tangerine Dream, Robert Rich, Between Interval, Kitaro, Tibetan Bells...) and only recently discovered Karunesh. He offers a wonderful combination of meditative, ethnic, upbeat, and electronic/space music that is different from any of these other artists and yet has a pleasing familiarity to it. Most of his compositions have a meditative tone, using (sometimes sampled) wooden flutes, bells and drums with just enough sythesizer to enhance the atmosphere and give the sound a contemporary feel. The upbeat numbers tend toward the light side, still calming but compellingly danceable, and can be inspiring or a little on the stereotypical new age side, depending on your taste--or mood.
Unlike much of this kind of music, Karunesh never makes me impatient, even when he's playing the same drum/sythnthesizer riff over and over like heartbeats, repeating the motif FOUR songs in a row (!) as he does on the album Heart Chakra Meditation. "ENLIGHTENMENT" also offers some similar-sounding songs in a more upbeat tempo, but the tunes are so catchy and hummable it's a pleasure to experience them again.
Too much variety, perhaps, for bedtime music (which much of his music is suited for) but that rare album that is soothing and invigorating at the same time.
