DAKSHA - ASCENDENT (NEURODISC) |
| |

The really groovy thing about DaKsha's "Ascendent" is how it gives you the classic pillow of gorgeous chillout softness but finds ways to subtley bring in new textures, creating a personality that distinguishes it and prevents it from being just some discount bin disc of cranked out chillage. DaKsha's music is warm and cool at the same time and both comforting and stimulating. It's comforting in that one could easily slip into a meditative repose while listening to this but stimulating in that it's almost impossible to leave the music in a bad mood if you started out in that way. Lush (an overused word but well-deserved here) and alive, "Ascendent" blooms into delectable melodies and enveloping ambience, wrapping the listener up in its warm arms, catching the next breeze and taking said listener on a vacation to nonexistent places. Beautiful. -- review by Kristofer Upjohn
