"This CD carries me to another place, a place of beauty and radiance and gratitude and gentle bliss. Meditating to this music is ethereal. I am absorbed into the music and my heart is cracked open and poured out. After that, there is only floating and radiance. My favorite track is Twameva, but all of the tracks are exemplary. I highly recommend this music for awakening and becoming one with loving kindness."
Loveland by Jai Uttal

"Loveland, subtitled Music for Dreaming and Awakening, is another fine accomplishment by artist Jai Uttal. My wife and I play this music and other Kirtan music (such as David Newman, and Wah) every evening while we go through our daily household rituals. The music transforms our home, and indeed transforms our lives. It is rich and subtly energizing. I highly recommend this artist, this music genre, and Awakening to all receptive and conscious minds!!! Be the change you wish to see in the world!!!!"

"I can not recommend this disc enough , for those looking for truly heartfelt music that can calm and soothe the soul, and yet energize at the same time. The recording quality is excellent and the artmanship is beautiful. Twameva is my favorite, just like the other reviewer. (hi there!) It would be a beautiful non-traditional wedding song in my humble opinion. Imagine walking down the aisle to this one! Also, if you like listening to music while going to sleep, try a few tracks from here. And please post your review so this disc can get more listens! :) Namaste..."

"This is another stunning work by Ben Leinbach and Jai Uttal. Every track is unique in its own right. It is a wonderful accompanyment to a yoga or meditation practice, or to just listen to for a little contemplative quiet time.
The tract Loveland is just magical - there is no other word I can use to describe it. It sounds as if something exceptional is happening - it almost gives me goose bumps when I listen to it.
The only thing I do not like on the album is the recitation of prayer at the end of Radiance, which is mentioned as a drawback in the audio review of the product as well. While the voice is soft and beautiful, it almost sounds as if she is giving a lecture on the necessity of peace, rather than saying an ancient prayer for peace. The intonation of the words, in my opinion, is just all wrong. I am sure it is due to her lovely Brazilian accent, but, truly, it kind of detracts from the beauty of the song for me. In yoga classes I have taken, I actually had a teacher turn the volume down during that part because I think he thought it might be distracting.
Other than that one negative comment, it is a CD well worth having.

"I bought the entire album and shuffled it around to suit my yoga classes. It is a beautiful album, all of the songs are great to meditate and practice yoga to."
