Customer Review: It really grows on you
At first when I got this CD I popped it into my stereo CD player at work and listened for a few minutes. I thought… “Damn… this is crap.” But then, later in the evening I went home and decided to give it another try. This time listening to it using my headphones. Then I thought “Damn… this is GOOD!”
Conclusion: “Sounds of light” doesn’t make good ambient background music, it’s best listened to using headphones. I also found it to be surprisingly mentally calming while doing “breath watching” meditation.
The recording is very well done, (you can hear the sound of the friction mallets as they draw them around the inside of the bowls) and is very clear. However the sound of the mallets does sound a little like a shop saw cutting a pipe a long way away, if you think this will bother you then, don’t buy it.
In the liner notes is an interesting story:
“In preparing to record Octaves of Light we set our intentions to anchor in the energies of illumination and enlightenment. As we began, our pinon incense sparked into a flame and, at the same time, the halogen light over head mysteriously went out, so the only remaining source of light in the room was a circle of candles. Continuing our session by candle light, suddenly and unexplainably the overhead light turned back on. This switching off and on of the light repeated for the duration of the recording. We felt the presence of angels.”
Customer Review: THIS CD GIVES ME A HEADACHE
I usually don’t like to write negative reviews, and I’m sure that for many people this cd is wonderful. If you enjoy it I think you should get it. But as for myself, I find it very unpleasant. The crystal bowls produce a kind of low pitched hum that gives me a headache every time. There are pleasant sounds too, some higher pitched tinkling sounds but the hum is almost continuous and really ruins it for me. I bought this one with Seven Metals, Singing Bowls of Tibet about two years ago. Seven Metals I love, I listen to it almost every day. I practice meditation and love good meditation music, especially Tibetan bells.But Crystal Singing Bowls I really can’t take. So before you order do listen first if you can.
