Album description

All things in the Universe are combination of matter and mind. The matter consists of four elements: Earth, Fire, Air and Water. All animals, plants, stones, emotions, inanimate objects, and energies are combinations of these elements. Everything has its own unique blend of the four elements in it: everything that has substance has earth in it; everything that has energy in it has fire; everything that flows and/or has feelings has water; and everything that involves sound, thinking, or communication has air in it.

This album includes 3 new and 3 remastered tracks from an earlier release OBE (Out of Body Experience) plus the track Water released previously as a single. Videoclip of AIR - Kalimba solo can be watched here.

Kora samples in the track Earth by the master Kora player Mamadou Diabate; balafon sounds by Bala Kouyaté.

Santoor samples in Water by multi-instrumentalist and singer Manish Vyas.

Kanun samples in OBE#2 by Hakan Güngör.

Cedar flute sounds in OBE#3 by David R. Maracle.

There's slight distortion on picks due to overcompression in some tracks, however the FLAC version is clean and dynamics are much better.

The audio quality of music offered on Jamendo in best case reaches 190 kbps, which is quite reasonable for evaluational purposes but definitely not enough to experience the richness of original sound (1411 kbps). If you'd like to feel how this music sounds for real you can obtain a lossless FLAC version of this album on my website.

Kalimba Solos EP is available now on Emusic.

I like the understated approach and disagree with comments about lacking melodic dynamics. The production is also quite well done.

Great approach to music and I do certainly appreciate SaReGaMa's life philosphy. Production is also very good. Music lacks of
concrete melody and composition, but, whole thing with it's atmospohere, rhythm, dynamics and progression compensates that. Bravo!

A masterpiece of ambient/downtempo electronica mixed with world music and rock. Absolutely essential for every fan of intelligent music.

Just 2 months ago I bought an album which has songs describing the beauty of all the four natural elements of Earth. I spent Rs 399/- ($ 9.99) on it. But lo! If I had waited for 2 months I could have got even better album! Curse me? Not completely!!

SaReGaMa and I have some sort of connection (I think so!). His music is exactly what I always wanted to listen. His music defines peace. You cannot call this piece music. Its 'sangeet', which has a definition worth more important and heavy than 'music'.

Air (Kalimba Solo): Kalimba gives very nice sound which is pleasant to ears. One of my favorites.

Water: A perfect song made out of some really pleasant samples by Pt. Manish Vyas. Its just amazing. Best use of samples ever.

Out of Body Experience tracks are just "out of the world classics', these tracks are just amazing. Their beauty cannot be defined.

In end its all..........Sa Re Ga Ma..Pa Dha Ni Sa

Le messieur ne veux pas recevoir d'argent pour sa musique, sans doute la trouve t'elle trop belle pour cela. C'est vrai qu'elle l'ait. Ou l'argent trop sale. Alors qu'il me permette de mettre une humble note de 5/10 pour encore améliorer son karma et son humilité si besoin. Merci.

The mister don't want any money for is beautiful music. Why not ? Money is dirty ? Perhaps I don't know, but I give a 5 to improve is karma and humility if some need. Thank you.

I've heard all this before when I was in the 8th heaven sitting with vishnu chewing on a vine which dripped soma.

we didn't talk about it, well nothing that couldn't be said without telepathy, yet we both agreed that should an earthling write anything similar that I would reincarnate as a poor musician and throw petals onto the ground wherever said person walked.

music in other universes than our own is often very inaccessible to earthlings so the cunning use of nature as a metaphor here was inspired.
