Artist Bio:

Shaman’s Eye is a unique collaboration between Amani Friend and Bente Friend. In the true spirit of musical alchemy, Amani blends his technical skills with his innate understanding of the power of sound and vibration to heal and transform. With deep reverence, he weaves the strands of pan-global percussive and melodic expressions, sacred chants, and the atmospheres of nature around the steady heartbeat of trance to inspire inner journeys. Bente's background in the healing arts includes the creative use of ecstatic trance to enrich one's daily life. Her inherent gift for guiding others to connect with their own deep wisdom and inner power blends the invisible worlds with the visible. Inspired by her work this sensual music was created to transport us into the mystical and magical realms residing within us all, and to attain the Shante Ishta--our own inner eye of compassionate vision

Review:

Shaman's Eye

'Ecstatic Trance'

Throughout human history and across most native traditions, constant repetitive rhythms and the steady drone of chanting have carried shamans and other spiritual seekers into other dimensions in ecstatic trance. Even today, this music, as ancient as the rocks and wind, provides sacred transport to higher states of wellbeing and bliss. Attaining the Shante Ishta is the goal of this journey. This is the “single eye of the heart," the third eye or wisdom eye of the ancients--the shaman's eye. It is the place where the individual soul attunes to the collective, universal heartbeat that unites us all.
