Peter Phippen & Ivar Lunde, Jr.: Primordial Forest (Digital)

Product Description Inner Real Life 1 The Pendulum Principle 2 Nightshade 3 Obsidian Mirrors 4 Primordial Forest 5 Full Moon Ritual 6 Grains of Sand Solenopole: "Primordial Forest is a unique musical experience, a fascinating journey into the heart of consciousness and nature. [Peter and Ivar] invite everyone to lose themselves in the mysteries of music and explore unknown sonic territory." Exposé: "This is a forest that a listener can easily get lost within, in fact one where a listener will want to get lost in pure introspective meditation, with the breath of life flowing through various flutes of the world while a backdrop of gentle synths and tuned percussion guides the listener through the inward spiral journey to sacred worlds where time seems to stand still, and though it seems to be over all too soon." GENRES: Ambient, New Age, Meditation RIYL: Coyote Oldman, Gary Stroutsos, R. Carlos Nakai, Paul Horn, G.S.Sachdev Nature Venturing into pristine musical terrain, flutist Peter Phippen and synthesist Ivar Lunde, Jr. reveal a magical album of dark secretive nocturnal soundscapes. Engaging mystery and textural sparseness, the six tracks unearth lush emotions entwined with inner stillness and self-discovery. These meditative moments are ideal for stress reduction and creating a positive mindset. Phippen’s bamboo and wooden flute improvisations offer the seeds for composer Lunde, Jr. to weave ambient arrangements utilizing synthesizers, gongs, and wine glasses. This results in a natural flow of each artist’s feelings. Time The definition of time in music might be perceived as a fourth dimension of reality. Melodies and textures played during the conception and life span of each piece cause subtle tension and release, deep emotion, beauty, and at times harmonious apprehension within a peaceful calm. Nature Out of this world and otherworldly. As a walk in the deep forest or immersion into the sacred, this music holds space for inner stillness in the midst of the cacophony and chaos bearing down on humanity and this precious planet. Gigi Stafne, natural medicine writer, educator, and clinician at Green Wisdom School of Natural and Botanical Medicine writes: Peter Phippen and Ivar Lunde, Jr. magically unfurl a path to other planes of existence. Each song on Primordial Forest evokes simple, sacred elements, tethering and signaling us to be present with, and to communicate with, the natural world and our ancestors. May this music pull you close, fine tune your energy and serve as a communication conduit with other worlds and ways of being.
