The most common instrument on the cd I think is the voice -- Tibetan overtone chanting, vocal harmonies, & choruses. Goldman also uses singing bowls & other Tibetan bells & instruments -- even Pythagoran tuning forks -- to create music of true

Synthesist Jonn Serrie has always traversed a spectrum between deep space excursions and sentimental pop melodies. He charts a similar course on Lumia Nights, creating ambient lounge music full of breathy synthesizer pads and cocktail-bar-at-midnight moods.
