Highlight
It seems like a match made in heaven, Huun-Huur-Tu (The Tuvan Throat Singers) and Angelite (formerly Mystere de Voix Bulgare). Hunn-Huur-Tu are masters of overtone or throat-singing. A vocal technique that allows the singer to sing up to three notes at a time. It's a very deep, resonant, and meditative sound. Angelite is a 24-piece women's choir from Bulgaria with an indescribable sound that is truly worthy of their name, which is Bulgarian for angel. The two singing together is an amazing experience.
Deeper
Well, when I accidentally ran across a CD down at Zia Records of the two singing together. I thought to myself, "Self, this could be good." Imagine it, throat singers, rumbling from the bowels of the earth, and angels, singing together. I was excited and made no delay in getting home to check out my new tunes. When I got home, I found that my beautiful wife and child were not home to share my new musical experience. Being alone, I allowed the volume to set itself at a level at which it could comfortably serenade the neighbors, as well as myself. I hit play. The first song made me very happy as I paced my living room in a very relaxed semi-trance. Throat singers chanting, mesmerizing, ya know, good stuff. The second song started out the same, but really crescendoed with a rhythmic chant that came straight from the innards of our planet. About a minute of this and I was really feeling the power, when in addition to this marvelous, entrancing, rumbling throat chant, rose a choir of angels.
