Breathe

A fusion of world music and spiritual ideas, taking the listener on a rhythmic journey through the chakras by way of samples from a number of indigenous cultures. Musically and structurally inventive, Soulfood have crafted an album that works for a variety of states — meditation, exercise, spiritual attunement, background, creative visualization... A second disc of remixes, entitled Deeper, is included in the package, and this, too, is worth hearing, thanks to some fascinating sonic tricks and a comforting ambient production that results in a relaxing listening experience — parts of Deeper will induce an enhanced alpha state. An excellent release.
