Shamanic Dream is one of Anugama's true masterpieces. Centered around rhythmic, low-tempo drum beats that pulsate in a "heartbeat" manner, the album offers a profoundly soothing atmosphere for balance and meditation exercises. The first track, "Shamanic Dream" is the most percussion-oriented of the three. Joining the beats are drone-like synthesizer textures, wispy Shakuhachi flute wanderings and male vocals that quietly chant "so be it." The second track, a journey through the chakras, adds synthesized ambience, ethereal vocalese and chirping crickets to the mix. Finally, "Mystical Trance" features the calming sounds of bamboo flute and didgeridoo. Beneath the surface, Shamanic Dream utilizes brainwave frequencies in the theta range, earth energies of the "C" range and other therapeutic sound techniques designed to help you relax more efficiently.

The long awaited sequel to Anugama's best-selling album Shamanic Dream has arrived. Artfully blending shakuhachi flute, didjeridoo, keyboards and percussion with the sounds of nature, the gifted multi-instrumentalist sculpts three textured, rhythmic compositions that evoke inner balance and healing. On the surface, the music features a steady beat, subtle synths and other percussive enhancements. Beneath the surface, however, is where the magic lies. Incorporated into these soundscapes are brainwave entrainment frequencies (mainly in the alpha, theta and delta range), planetary sounds, enhanced three-dimensional acoustic sounds and primordial chants. The combination of earthy rhythms and sound enhancement techniques allows the listener to reach deep states of meditation and relaxation.
