On Ashek hyper-gifted multi-instrumentalist Tim Rabyorn brings to life the music of worldly and spiritual love from Greece, the Middle East, and Central Asia. The album features both vocal and instrumental music spanning several centuries and thousands of miles, but united by one common theme: the longing for true love—whether physical or spiritual. The album's title derives from the "ashiklar," a unique group of traveling Turkish bards whose name means those who are "in love" with God, and the album really reflects this longing for union with the devine, and far from being sentimental, contains some of the most mysterious and somber works in Rayborn's entire catalog. Typically gorgeous work from a world-class talent in the field of ancient music.

Solace, a.k.a. Jeremiah M. Soto, has earned renown as producer thtrough several best-selling ambient, world, and electronica album, including the Magnatune favorite Ahsas. This time Soto takes us deeper into his imagined east by fusing his dynamic Middle Eastern rhythms with exotic Far Eastern instrumentation and percussion. Few people could blend disparate cultures and eras so successfully, but Soto's impeccable studio craftsmanship and knowledge of multiple genres enable him to do just that . Taiko drums, guqin, and pan pipe meet with subtle trip hop and Middle Eastern beats to form a musical vision out of time and place—an entirely original and idyllic meeting of two worlds. Be sure to check out the stunning vocals by Kate St. Pierre on "Haiku" and "Kimono Mojo."
