Rated 5/5
Review by kingwiltsu Sep 23, 2005 (edited over 4 years ago)
Let's take a trip to the East of the River Ganges.
The Kumba Mela Expereminet struck to my head like a lightning couple of years ago. It's a very spiritual and melodic piece of art. Combining the elements of Dub Trees, Suns of Arqa, The Orb and others, it's a unique compilation of timeless sounds that manifest the holiness of the Kumbha Mela gathering. The samples (some from Jamaican reggae) are very well chosen ensuring that this is an unforgettable journey.
Music for the mind, sould and heart. Music of love, peace and unity.
