Great Music, rare artistry!.......2007-02-06

This CD is awesome! The techno Middle Eastern woven in with Chazzanut and Arabic singing gives this album flavor and sustance, I wish they had another album!

OK w/ a Bullet.......2005-08-25

It's growing on me.

At first, I was pretty skeptical. I usually don't care too much for dance/techno-trip/ambient club groove, and less for electronic fusions with Jewish music. But to be honest, this makes good background music, for hanging out, for cooking, for trips, even for meditation. I don't think the music itself is spiritual or meditative or in any way the usual brand of 'authentic' Jewish/Israeli music. But it's kind of nice, it's chill, you can move to it or stay still to it, it just seems to work.

If you're looking for the cream of Israeli music, this is not it. That would be a band called Bustan Abraham. But on the other hand, compared to most of the abysmal pop music that floods the Israeli market, this is quality stuff.

And the more I listen, the more it seems to grow on me. I don't know that I'll ever be crazy to run out and get the next Zohar CD, but at least I feel pretty justified in buying this one. And if nothing else, at least it's not Ehud Banai....

A wonderful, almost spiritual experience.......2004-12-26

I bought this cd on a whim after briefly listening to it at Borders and I was not disappointed. The music is not only beautiful but also has an almost spiritual quality to it. My favorite tracks are #5 and #7, although they are all good. Each song has intricate layers to it which makes the whole cd an amazing experience. I listened to the cd non-stop while I was on a trip in Africa and it seemed to fit the scenery and mood wonderfully. Each time I listen to the cd I feel as if I'm back there. Play this cd with candles lit or a time when you can really listen to it. I've played this cd for friends and they also agree that its wonderful. I hope there is more to come!

Bless one.......2004-07-06

I consider myself a world music efficianado, ZOHAR is a unique cd. The cd has a contrasting blend, of Jewish prayer (like in Ehad & Elokainu) to Arab cantoring. but it has a buetiful jazz blend mixed in with raw sounds. It's a good chillout cd.

Wow.......2002-12-15

I bought this album on a lark, just because it looked interesting, and I was NOT disappointed. The opening track, "ehad" is one of the most incredible songs I've ever heard. "midnight at the bazaar" is a great chill song. "elokainu" is one of those beautiful, haunting songs that gives you goosebumps. I love the whole album...it's simply intoxicating.

The music on this album isn't supposed to be middle eastern...it's dance/ambient/drum and bass with middle eastern influences. It's one of a kind. One of my best purchases ever.
