The Property Of Water<\/div>
A relaxing meditative tribute to photographer Jerry Derbyshire, a great nature photographer. Those wanting an artistic yet healing experience will enjoy the view from Jerry's eye. Good for Yoga, Zen Meditation and a soothing ambience<\/div><\/div>\"This<\/a>
This Christmas<\/div>
An acoustic holiday and Christmas album in a very gentle prairie setting. The mood is somewhat ethereal and the sound is acoustic.I love the whole John Fahey thing as well as the Aaron Copeland approach. American. Of coarse, keeping it from sounding like a Christmas album was important as well.<\/div><\/div>\"Meditation<\/a>
Meditation Heavens<\/div>
Meditation with music and nature with Paul Adams album Heavens. One hour long meditation for relaxation with Flute instrumentation as well as Nature and exotic instruments. Good for Yoga, stress, sleep and a need to calm the spirit.<\/div><\/div>\"Nightbird\"<\/a>

From Paul Adams album SLEEP. Winner of Native Flute album of the year. The marraige of nature and music is a natural and organic calming agent. Good for rest, meditation, Yoga, and stress reduction.<\/div><\/div>\"March<\/a>
March Of The Butterlanders<\/div>
March Of The Butterlanders is the ending song on Paul Adams album In The Land Where I Come From. It is a little fantasy with a couple of meter shifts. An existential peek into the Zen experience of inner butter. A state of mind accomplished through great battles of Butterlanders being weighed down by their pride<\/div><\/div>\"Fall<\/a>
Fall Harvest<\/div>
This song is from Paul Adams album A View From The Plain. An all acoustic "ode" to the prairie. Stylistically unique, perhaps leo Kottke, John Fahey, Chet Atkins, Aaron Copeland come to mind. Mark O'Connor is a bit of an influence<\/div><\/div>\"Carol<\/a>
Carol Of The Bells<\/div>
From Pul Adams album THIS CHRISTMAS. This is a muted down acoustic guitar version of the traditional song. A bit of slide guitar thrown in for good measure, as well as a few vocal Doo Bee Doo Bees to suport the guitar lines. The goal was to offer an even handed holiday album free from the usual entrapments.<\/div><\/div>\"Saharah<\/a>
Saharah Caravan<\/div>
Saharah Caravan is from the album Dance by THE NEURONS. It's a world fusion\/groove album by Paul Adams and David Hoffman.<\/div><\/div>\"Elephant<\/a>
Elephant Walk<\/div>
From VARIOUS WAVES. An Ode to the Wonderous Elephant that roam the world. A hint of Africa throughout the piece.<\/div><\/div>\"An<\/a>
An Opening Flow<\/div>
From Paul Adams album THE PROPERTY OF WATER. This song as well as the others on the album were composed for yoga, massage and relaxation. The unique approach is that the entire album was done using Computer and Digital music pioneer Laurie Spiegel's MUSIC MUSE for computer. This intelligent program utilizes the computer keys rather than synth or sequencer for all music commands. EX. press one key you get staccato, another Legato, yet another chooses scale etc etc. The mouse is used to create melodic sequences. When you stop creating w\/ the mouse, it improvises over what you've done. Laurie called the album a "unique blend of Silicon and Wood," as this rather clinical approach was combined with real instruments, and special stereo recordings of nature. Another unique approach is that the Nature sounds were not used just as a backdrop, but in some cases, part of the melodic structure. Example, thunder may be heard in place of crash cymbals.<\/div><\/div>\"Atmosphere\"<\/a>
Atmosphere<\/div>
Paul Adams meditative song entitled ATMOSPHERE is from my album FLUTE MEDITATIONS FOR DREAMING CLOUDS.<\/div><\/div>\"The<\/a>
The Moon And Stars<\/div>
From Paul Adams album Flute Meditations For Dreaming Clouds. THE MOON AND STARS. Aimed for relaxation, massgae, Meditation, Yoga, stress reduction, or just an inner journey.<\/div><\/div>\"Breathe\"<\/a>
Breathe<\/div>
Your love is like a breath, like natures air cleaned through\nbending branches and leaves, that filter impurities.<\/div><\/div>\"Time<\/a>
Time Passing Away<\/div>
A thoughtful vocal tune concerning the illusion of time. Some may say Enya esc, but that wasn't the intension<\/div><\/div>\"Natures<\/a>
