Label: Deep Space Music
He is a man that has been healing from the tragedy of
losing his toddler son. He has transitioned from that pain and loss and transformed
his life with more purpose to help those that have special needs. Also created is
a foundation in honor of his son to
help those with neuroblastoma, a catastrophic pediatric cancer of the
sympathetic nervous system that took his life.
Obviously, his music holds many meanings but the primary
goal is to ascend to a higher place, heal the soul, and in essence become
reborn with new life and purpose.
Voice
of the Ancestors features the usual lineup of stars from the New
Age genre that find their way on to most of the releases I have the honor of
hearing. Grayhawk plays the synthesizers as a base instrument then there is so
much more that contributes to the overall sound and textures of this release.
To say it is World music is correct but with a New Age concept and approach.
The ancients held many traditions and ceremonies all over the world. What this
recording captures is the very spirit and color of that diversity and beauty.
There are native flutes, worldbeat percussions, viola,
ambient guitar lines, and gorgeous vocalizations, particularly on “Peace
Prayer.” The track runs over 10 minutes and takes 160 tracks of invocation of
English, Hebrew, Farsi, and Arabic. There is also the shorter version, a little
over 5 minutes for the internet streaming stations to play. Honestly, I have
heard similar tracks but nothing like this before. The blend of all the
languages balances with the English word, which is still heard so you can listen
to the translations at the same time, amazing. This is the kind of track that
deserves worldwide attention and should be heard on every inch of the globe.
Grayhawk has created a work of genius that encompasses
music, words and a powerful spiritual message. This is a brilliant example of a
man taking his personal tragedy and using it to give back to the universe his
love and healing. I can hear this playing in the background of a cinematic
tribute to the different peoples of the world and how they worship and provide
music for their people.
Voice
of the Ancestors is an incredible gift for all to enjoy. Listen
closely, you may hear the whispers of your own ancestors in this music.
