Ennio Morricone
Ennio Morricone is by far one of the most influential modern composers...in the Universe! That is only in my most humble opinion.
One can never have enough of the soundtrack for "The Mission" .
Unfortunately, yours truly does not even come close to the ranks of such a one as Ennio, however...music really IS magic that transcends the illusion of linear time, space, language, geographic locations, cultural, ethnic, academics, socio-economical formalities...
Music is limitless freedom, sort of the "lingua franca" to the "illiterati".
Poetry and art, literature, music, dance....is life, LIFE IS ART, ART IS LIFE.
More music soon....from me, under another alias...hmmmm...anyone have any suggestions, just let me know please...otherwise it shall have to be something unoriginal like...hmmm...Obfusc8...we'll see, we'll see.
Currently listening:
The Mission: Original Soundtrack From The Motion Picture
By Ennio Morricone
Release date: By 29 June, 1992

Imam Arafi - Mariam - 26 minutes 37 seconds
This is one of the artists currently influencing my own music and compositions. The vocals for the text, are sung beautifully but not in English, there is also no accompanying music. It is very hypnotic and enchanting.
This is verbatim from artist's description.
To recite the Quran with a high degree of perfection requires training that can last more than a decade. Usually the qari(reciter)has memorized the entire quranic text, which is approximately 600 pages.
It's a well known fact among Muslims that the Archangel Gabriel taught Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, who in turn taught his companions. From them the art has been spread from generation to the next.
Today thousands of people memorize the Quran. Some of them perfected their art to an amazing level of touching the soul, and uplifting the spirit. It's what Imam Arafi calls,"Ultra Music". The prophet is reported to have said, that the one who recites the Quran in a beautiful voice is akin to the angels.
Imam Arafi has been living in the Lone Star State for the past 20 years.
The English translation of the meanings is read by Brian Pierce, a promising vocalist.
The image is designed by Feras Fanari, an accomplished artist.
The work on this CD took about a year. It's intended for the enjoyment and enlightenment of audiences around the world.

HALUSIN8
Recapitulate what has already been done.
Waiting patiently as myspace processes each file so people can listen
to the tracks.
This digital music production is my new passion.
Even if only 1 person listens to the tracks, and absorbs something positive, gets some
good vibes out of them...it is well worth the efforts to create in this medium.
Basically, this is something challenging, new for me.
There was an article in the paper one day, and a successful music producer gave great advice, which is something like this "You do what you love to do, monetary gain is only a part of it, and it shouldn't be the main priority."
All of this...sure making a sustainable living off of it would be wonderful, but...it is a goal out of many goals, a dream of many dreams, to strive for, one small step at a time.
