"Dean Evenson is a very interesting person. After earning a Master's Degee in the 60's in molecular biology, he decided to follow his other interests of art and music. We all won out on that decision. I have heard several of Dean's albums and so far, this is my very favorite.
Dean uses his music to promote knowledge and reverence for the Earth. He incorporates ambient sounds of nature and the voices and music of the people indigenous to the area. This CD includes recordings of rain falling in the rainforest. These, along with the native and silver flutes, keyboards, harp (by his wife Dudley Evenson) and other musicians combine to make a beautiful sound.
The music is uplifting and restful."
One of the finest recordings from deep within...

"Dean Evenson has caught the one of the most beautiful passions we can possibly hope to share with one another - our harmony in one with all the earth through a close yet just beyond our reach, mystical moment of consciousness. He captures an intangible pure essence found deep within the Rain Forest and within each of us. His brilliant work speaks to all who are willing to listen. It's full of a divine awareness, peaceful, powerful yet direct as in a new found freedom, clothed with a true white light of being. As one who has searched for excellance in such work, Rain Forest is among the very best ever."
Beautiful nature music that will lull you to dreams.

"I bought this CD years ago, and its one of the few that I've had for so long. This is new age at its best. The music is so calming, and so peaceful, and will put you at ease and to rest quietly and quickly. I know you can find lots of 'nature sounds' CDs out there, but nothing I have encountered compares to this one. Dean Evenson is the best, and I would highly recommend this as well as 'Ocean Dreams.' He is the master at his task, and while I have lots of other New Age CDs, this one is a genuine favorite."
So soothing, calming, a sense of peaceful joy!

"I bought this CD about 5 years ago and still have it and play it for my clients. I can't tell you how many times I have them ask who's cd this is and special requests to have this cd playing while I do their spa service! I enjoy and get such a sense of happiness and calm from it that I even play it before I go to sleep at night sometimes. This is a must have if you are looking for a special cd to create atmosphere, happiness, serenity fro yourself and your spa clients!!! LOVE IT!"
