Jodi Roberts Tibetan Bowls The experience of listening to this recording for the first time in the editing studio was one of absolute wonder at what sacred collaboration really is. The sounds of the instruments together creates a synergy that is magical and mystical, earthy and celestial all at once. Thank you to Steve for mentioning in his very humble way one evening after a Tibetan bowl concert that he played the didj. It is a pleasure to co-create sacred sound that defines healing and transformation on every level of being. The essence of recording a live concert is one of taking a sound snapshot of the sacred space and all beings in the room. We weave the web of sound together to create an experience never to be duplicated again. Thank you to Gerry Starnes for providing the heart beat of the drum. With love and blessings to all who joined us at NiaSpace in Austin Texas for this very alive recording. Steve Daniel on Didgeridoos A room filled with instruments, people, and love creates a magic space. "Collaboration" would be one way to describe the way Jodi and I created this CD, but I like to think it was a kind of mutual journey taken that night at NiaSpace. What if some people in an ancient time journeyed during a starry night, in their version of an event like we recorded, to a future space where we sat, surrounded by lights and walls and air conditioners? What if we met them halfway in our own journeys? What sound might they have created… and what sound did we create to give to them? Are sounds a bridge between us? For me, it's not just about experiencing the shamanic ancestral - it's a gift from us to the ancient ones, the gift of us being the ones they imagined...carrying forth the growth of the best in us. We're standing on their shoulders...
