Byron Metcalf & Mark Seelig: Intention

Intention is a transcultural tour de force of multi-layered tribal-ambient rhythms, indigenous instruments, and mesmerizing soundscape. Byron’s spellbinding and laser-like drums and percussion merge with Mark’s haunting and beautiful bansuri flutes and Tuvan-style throat singing to create a bold, larger-than-life journey into infinite possibilities. Infused with steadfast power and authority, Intention is expertly crafted to induce and support expanded states of consciousness. | Read the full description & purchase CD for $14 here.

With living, breathing percussion, didgeridoo and soundworlds, the end result is full-blown alchemy, covering a wide range of ecstatic dreamtime flow: rhythm, breath and expansion. | Read the full description & purchase CD for $14 here.
