Typically,
the music I hear for review is piano based instrumental, which is wonderful
however it can begin to sound the same after a while. Any genre can. What Elise
gave me was breath of fresh air, a recording so different and unique that I
felt engaged and energized after listening. The difficulty in arranging and
producing a project like this on a scale from 1-10 is without question a 10.
Her
goal was to merge the male and female energies together with synergistic music
that combines an Egyptian Middle Eastern base with a new age conceptual vision.
And there a few songs that have a rap tempo, which is very interesting and
something I have never heard before. This is in all a different language which
makes it more thought provoking and provocative if you only know English.
Much of the music I enjoy has a cinematic quality and Origin – One World Turning has that value
and substance. This is music that has nothing but potential, potential for a
multitude of uses in the world of media and technology used for films and art
presentations.
Elise Lebec combines the timeless traditions of an ancient
civilization with her beautiful voice, which serves as the main instrument in
channeling the Gods and Goddesses of a time long past. She brings them back to
life however who is to say they ever left?
Origin – One World Turning epitomizes the spirit
of indie music and the heart and soul of creative expressions. An excellent
example of that thought is “Sekhmet: The Goddess Awakens.” It is very ear
catching and it has the power of transporting you like any good track should.
The exception this time is that it is a literal time machine that gives rise of
a Goddess. Like a phoenix she rises from the ashes in a blaze of light. The
music brings about these visions, which was surely the intent.
Elise Lebec has accomplished a great many things with Origin – One World Turning and mainly
getting my undivided attention and interest from start to finish. Anyone with
an open heart and mind will embrace this music as a new journey that just may
provide a different outlook on a new day.
