about

"Labyrinth" and "Trance" are albums of original music commissioned by a holistic training and health institute as ambient new age music for healing sessions, educational classrooms, massage, Reiki, acupuncture, etc.

I am posting the albums exactly as they were intended to be experienced. Tracks with the same name are in fact the same music. This was done intentionally, as repetition is conducive to meditation, contemplation, and trance work.

If you download the entire album, you will get the music complete, as it was intended. However, feel free to download just the tracks you want, and create your own playlist.

Each album needed to be a particular length, but they needed to stay within the same style and scope. They were intended to serve as background ambience, in addition to being listened as music.

Play at moderate volume.

As you can see from the track names, "Trance" is basically three tracks, set up as a palindromic sequence. This was intentional, as the album was intended for use as background music for healing sessions, including massage, process therapy, Reiki, and so on The album is intended to be played as background music, at low or moderate volume.

I have set the album pricing so that if you buy the album as a whole the cost is the same as if you just buy the three tracks and re-create the album by making your own playlist. The main difference is that with the album version you also get the CD booklet PDF, and all the tracks already in order. (Recommended.)
