Trance states or altered states of consciousness have had many and various definitions over time ranging from catalepsy, comas, sleep, somnambulism, mystical ecstasies, hallucinations, hypnosis, or mediumship. And yet today more than at any other time in human history we are all susceptible to these profound states, either through electronic immersion, meditation or listening to music. This album of five pieces of soundscaping humbly attempts to conjure up the endless cosmic aether (the material that fills the universe beyond the terrestrial sphere), so that in some small and hopeful way it can help to facilitate the messages from our subliminal selves to transpire into our fully ripened consciousness. May we all hear the guiding the wisdom from within.
