Search - Gregory :: Tara

Tara reflects the essence of eastern influences utilizing electronic textures and sound reminiscent of cultural and traditional music. The compositions are improvisatory in nature and lengthy, allowing for an uninterrupted meditative and relaxational experience. Western ears classify this music as World, Ambient, New Age, and Electronic. "Samsara" maintains a mesmerizing quality with its unique synth texture, simple drum, and snake-music quality. "Tara" manifests a melodic presence over a traditional sounding Indian tamboura and drum drone. "Akasa" is pure ambience with only a hint of melody occasionally piercing the sonic vale. "Arupa" is best described by its Sanskrit definition meaning "formless", and "Go Quietly" has a southwestern influence with its haunting synth texture, native drum, thunder, and distant howling of coyotes.
