Genre: Electroacoustic
Catalogue Number: LMSCD 001

Celestial Nile ventures into the past exploring the earliest sounds of drums in different cultures around the world. A wide variety of percussion is used including, African drums and mbira; Indonesian gongs, drums and gamelan instruments; Latin American hand drums; Indian drums; Tibetan bowls; and Middle Eastarn darbuka. "The music is alternately moody, strong, emotional, and full of spatial surprise. It is an elctro-acoustic music that slings bridges between past and present, performer, listener and the unknown...My music doesn't attempt to represent any culture other than my own, and in this respect I have tried to remain true to my own musical vision" Jon Keliohor, 1998. Well worth hearing!
