Animal dreams

"Great disk. Dave put together an intriguing eclectic mix of styles/genres. There is a ton of creativity and originality in the mix. The range includes a jazzy sitar/ indian flavor piece, lots of Middle eastern/Egyptian influence, more straight ahead didgeridoo oriented songs, and to top it off some ethereal overtone/ harmonic singing that just carries you away. Very diverse, and it all hangs together quite nicely. Dave's versatility as a didgeridoo player shines, and really helps to provide a common thread through this diverse set of music. Definitely worth a listen!"
Very Cool Didge Fusion

"Wow -- this is one of the best didge fusion CDs I have heard. I particularly like the more ambient pieces with oud and middle eastern vocals. Very trancy chill grooves. It takes me to some deep inner spaces. It is very well produced and very deep music despite the rather silly cover. It brings the didge as a vehicle of dream time awareness into western-world-fusion music in a respectful way. Dave Crowder really understands the both the musical and mind-altering powers of this instrument. His overtone chanting is awesome too."
