Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Top-notch sooth-ability! .......2005-03-09

Throughout this immeasurably relaxing album are the predominant natural sounds of both water and birdsong that get supported by an assortment of gentle keyboard instrumentations. From Ashron's singing bowls to Scholl's spacescape, from Shajan's pouring rain stick to the Gordon's bird and waterscapes, all lend the listener to a perfect blend of sound for bathing the mind and soothing the spirit. Sophia has the only track with vocals, but its ethereal voices are so sweet one forgives the gentle intrusion. In all, this is the Gordon's most relaxing and rewarding album for letting go. Top-notch sooth-ability!

5 out of 5 stars Incredibly Peaceful & Moving.......2005-03-01

This latest compilation of healing music from Sequoia Records is nothing less than brilliant. A follow up to their beautifully relaxing "Musical Healing" release from several years back, Perfect Balance: Musical Healing Vol. 2 surpasses the first in depth, dynamic and serenity. The majority of tracks here are mainly new releases along with a few classics from legendary healing music pioneers, David & Steve Gordon. These are balanced perfectly with some amazingly traquil tracks from such healing music luminaries as Shajan, Sophia and several new artists of note, including Bernd Scholl, whose track "Watermoon" blissfully carries the listener away on an ocean of eternal calm and Ashron, whose "Golden Light" bathes the listener in a waterfall of shimmering sound. This 69 plus minute release is superbly produed, mixed and sequenced allowing for ultimate release and relaxation and is long enough to just let it run for accompanying any healing arts session. An exceptional release.

    3 out of 5 stars Living Language: German (CD).......2000-08-12

    I purchased this CD hoping it would be something I could use in my High School German classes. Although the spoken German on the CD is lovely and articulate, I would recommend this only to people who have already had training in German and wish to brush up on pronunciation and fluency. This is a good CD, but I wouldn't use it for beginners.

    4 out of 5 stars A good start, but nothing beats a real class.......1998-05-13

    Lots of companies are putting foreign language materials on the market these days. This is not a bad product among these, either. Its focus on spoken German and everyday German, the kind you need to pick up to get around and deal with people, transportation, bureaucracies, etc., is practical and intelligent. However, don't be mislead by this CD or any other product that claims to simplify language learning: Nothing can ever beat the tried and true flash-card method, nothing can replace spending time a class once a day for a year or two. Better yet, use this CD for a couple weeks before going to LIVE in German-speaking Europe for a couple months. But don't use it to replace any of that. The CD format is a great advance, incidentally, over cassettes, in terms of repeating dialogs and sentences, custom-programming what you hear, etc.

    4 out of 5 stars Solid Annihilator Metal.......2005-12-06

    Refresh the Demon is another one of the 'Jeff Waters solo project' Annihilator albums, but still manages to kick a liberal amount of ass. Darker and faster than King of the Kill, Refresh the Demon is peppered with heavy thrash songs as well as slower metal songs. Ultraparanoia, Pastor of Disaster, and Syn. Kill 1 represent the heaviest end, while the wicked upbeat thrash of City of Ice and the addictive Hunger round out the other end. A Man Called Nothing is arguably one of the cooler songs written in this period, blending several different styles and sounding cool as hell. The weakest songs here are actually the title track, which doesn't live up to its name, and Innocent Eyes, an out of place ballad. I like most of the songs on this album, and it has a heavier feel overall than King of the Kill, but it's nowhere near the band's classic releases.

    4 out of 5 stars Back on track. This album rocks.......2004-04-10

    Oh yeah! When Refresh the Demon starts you know you made a good purcahse. One of the best Annihilator songs right of the bat, but wait, it keeps going, Pastor of Disastor has to be one of the top 5 Annihilator songs of all time and Ultraparanoia, Awaken, Syn Kill 1 and The Box are all great. A Man Called Nothing really works well and it's definately a great song. I even dig Innocent Eyes, it's a great reflection of Jeff's honesty in his music.
    The album isn't perfect, the crappy City of Ice and Anything for Money really don't fit on this rather heavy album.
    Another Jeff solo project, but a definate improvement over King of the Kill.
    Definately add this to your collection

    4 out of 5 stars Another awesome Annihilator.......2001-03-26

    This Annihilator cd is worth every cent. And if you have not heard this one . Unlike the earlier one's this one Jeff did all this by himself. He said that there were some rough times that he was going through and wanted this album done alone. But it is still the same Annihilator style as before just without a band.It has the intensity of the other's and just as good. I have to recommend it to anyone that is in the mood for some Metal thrash with a lot of melody to it. This is the one for you.

        Album Description

        Refresh your spirit on this inspiring musical voyage. The Ginkgo Tree, known as a symbol for hope and love, is the muse for the music of Ginkgo Garden, the internationally acclaimed music project of renowned film-music composer and keyboardist Eddy F. Mueller. Two years of studio crafting with some of Europe's finest musicians went into this hope-filled fifth release. By masterfully combining vintage guitar and keyboard sounds with exotic world instruments, electric guitar, piano, pulsing electronica, multi-layered vocals, Asiatic chants and deeply spiritual lyrics, the result is a uniquely uplifting modern ethno-pop groove. Great efforts were put into the fascinating vocal work on this record resulting in a gorgeous and uplifting vocal sound. One of the most popular artists on the acclaimed Buddha-Lounge series, Ginkgo Garden is now bringing their wonderfully genre-blending music to the US by popular demand.

        "One of the most requested artists from Sequoia's popular "Buddha-Lounge" series, Ginkgo Garden has already had success overseas with its uplifting grooves. This exciting world beat project, from renowned German producer Eddy F. Mueller, offers a unique blend of driving rhythms, spacious synthesizers, guitar (both acoustic and electric) and richly layered vocals. Imagine blending Asian ambiance with the ethnic sensibilities of Deep Forest. Amp up the pop/rock elements, throw in some electric guitars and you'll start to get an idea of what Ginkgo Garden's very original, genre-bending sound is like. This is definitely an album to toss in the CD player next time you're looking for something fun and funky." ~ Music Design In Review

        5 out of 5 stars An Unexpected Delight !.......2005-12-13

        I really love the Ginkgo Garden tracks that I've enjoyed so much from the Buddha Lounge and Cafe De Luna series from Sequoia Records. But when I ordered this debut solo release from GG I didn't expect it to be so far beyond my expectations. The scope and range of this music from Eddy Mueller and crew is extraordinarily varied. From downtempo-chillout tracks (A Mystic Day in Mandalay/The Seafarer) to tribal trance (Padparadscha/Drums of Faith) to the progressive rock sensibilites of (The North Wind Pt. 1 & 2) to infecuous pop grooves (There is Love). Each song builds on its predecessor beautifully leaving the listener uplifted and inspired. This is a great title for letting loose and dancing joyously around the house either by yourself or with ones you love. Beautiful!
