Propelled by world beat, old-school R&B, Afro-Cuban rhythms and ambient New Age atmospheres, this disc is packed with smooth grooves and soaring guitar that will get your body moving and your kundalini rising. Alternating tracks feature shamanic frame drum and ethereal sonic seasonings. Joining Halpern are master percussionists Kim Atkinson, Geoffrey Gordon and Ian Dogole, with Marc Van Wageningen on bass and soulful guitarist Jim Surles.
