Description

Al Gromer Khan - Tantra Drums [APE][World, Meditative, New Age]



Included here....



Almond Blossom Day (2000)

Chai & Roses (1987)

Divan I Khas (1984)

Konya (1997)

Tabris (1991)

Tantra Drums (1998)



Al Gromer Khan (aka Aloysius Gromer) earned the right to use the name "Khan" by demonstrating master proficiency on the sitar. Tantra Drums is a set of ethnic electro-tribal ambience based on the ritualism of an ancient Shakti cult. Tantra contains dark and exotic rituals and deep spirituality. Modern culture has bastardized the term, so Khan has composed, arranged, and performed these soundscapes in modern poetic parlance in order to preserve both the erotic and spiritual meanings. The music is deep and hot. Khan's atmospheres surround the rhythms; his sitar compliments the atmospheres. The ethnic overtones complete his soundworld. Deep listening is a must for this lush and full soundscape. The CD will appeal to fans of Mo Boma, David Parsons, and Omar Faruk Tekbilek. Fans of Middle Eastern and Far Eastern ambient fusion will find this important. Casual fans will find it interesting.



Outstanding for tantra or meditation, July 8, 2005 By Dr. Bill "Professor, spiritualist, mammal" (Charlottesville, VA USA)



The unique aspect of this album is the underlying steady beat... a single rhythm extending from beginning to end, and at a perfect pace for breathing meditation or tantric lovemaking. In fact, this album is so well crafted for those purposes that it's hard to imagine using anything else. I've not found its equal (though Al Gromer Khan's "Tantra Drums" is in the right ballpark). If anyone can recommend a CD with a similar, slow, steady, visceral beat and well suited to meditative or tantric practice I would love to hear it. Until then, BUY THIS CD!

Al Gromer Khan & Amelia Cuni - Monsoon Point



Born in Bavaria in 1946, Alois Gromer has lived in England, India, and Morocco, which broadened his musical tastes and performing style. He attended a recital by sitarist Vilayat Khan and was so moved that he dedicated his life and art to the study of the sitar. After studying with master sitarist Imrat Khan, Gromer became a member of the Khan-i-Gharana dynasty in 1975 and added the Khan name to his own. His contemplative, contemporary approach to music made him popular in the arenas of radio and television scoring, as well as with progressively minded artists like Deuter, Amon Dⁿⁿl, and Florian Fricke of Popul Vuh, with whom Khan collaborated. Solo outings like Mahogany Nights, Space Hotel, and Kamasutra drew critical acclaim for their supple blend of technique, tradition, and technology. 1999 saw the release of Music From an Eastern Rosegarden;

Almond Blossom Day followed a year later and mid-2000 saw the release of God Perfume II. Sufi was issued a year later.



Though his sitar talents take a back seat on this album, Al Gromer Khan creates the appropriate nocturnal ambience on Mahogany Nights with synthesizers, vibes, marimbas, bells, and unique percussion touches like African logs. Khan's sitar accents rather than dominates pieces like "Taj" and "Night of the Scorpion," and the overall effect is spacious and exotically melodic. Mahogany Nights is a good, gradual introduction to Khan's talents as a composer and sitarist.

Al Gromer Khan - Mahogany Nights.

Though his sitar talents take a back seat on this album, Al Gromer Khan creates the appropriate nocturnal ambience on Mahogany Nights with synthesizers, vibes, marimbas, bells and unique percussion touches like African logs. Khan's sitar accents rather than dominates pieces like 'Taj' and 'Night of the Scorpion', and the overall effect is spacious and exotically melodic. Mahogany Nights is a good, gradual introduction to Khan's talents as a composer and sitarist.



Al Gromer Khan ~ Sufi



Al Gromer Khan (aka Aloysius Gromer) has built many soundscapes from his cross-cultural virtuosity. For Sufi, he relies heavily on Indian acoustic instruments and contemporary electronics. The CD is based on the intense poetry of the Sufi and the purity of their spirituality. Khan was deeply influenced by the teachings of Ustad Vilayat Khan and his demonstration of how a small fragment of music begets new realities. He embraces Sufism that works from direct experiences and allows it to affect his music -- deeply. This gentle soundscape is very subtle. The atmospheres are vacuous and large; Al Gromer Khan's sound design is flawless. The music builds and collapses upon itself continuously. Deep listeners will be fascinated by the depth of the journey. The unique soundscape will appeal to fans of David Parsons, Jalan Jalan, and Angelo Riccardi. It was a finalist in the New Age

Al Gromer Khan - Lexus



Al Gromer Khan (born Aloysius Gromer) has become quite prolific in the new millennium. Lexus: Future Miniatures is one of his discs and it is, perhaps, the most traditional or accessible of the lot. Slow raga rhythms carry deep atmospheres along a fine line that borders on electro-tribal ambience. Gromer has long been recognized as one of the premiere practitioners of that style. This is certainly among his best efforts in that vein. It is very reminiscent of some of the classic desert ambient CDs of the masters, and Gromer?s subtle sitar adds a real sense of depth. This CD will appeal to fans of Steve Roach, Biff Johnson, Ma Ja Le, TUU, and V

Al Gromer Khan: Tantra Drum



It blends the Indian cadences of raja with a little Giorgio Moroder thrown in for good measure. Some of the cuts are transcendental ... very evocative of dreamy harems ... quiet temples at sultry dusk ... the tiniest soupcon of African rhythms. Mystical, flowing, sensual, erotic, engaging... lovely musical support for slow, ecstatic lovemaking. Transports the listener to another level of consciousness....



Fantastic.... beautiful, visceral rhythms. Great for meditation, and PERFECT for those intimate times!

Al Gromer Khan - Space Hotel



From the perplexing poem in the liner notes by the ?unknown dervish? to the intoxicating circular pulsating rhythms, Al Gromer Khan?s Space Hotel, with its paisley of Indian instruments and keyboards, offers a hypnotic, metaphysical experience. These seven Dervish dances, plus one, are based on the graceful twirling rituals of the Sufis. The first track, as thick as perfumed incense, almost slurs the mind. The thirteen-minute ?Dance the Hadra? offers a circular dance beat ? stately, sensuous, and uplifting ? against throaty-horn drones, vocal ?aums,? and accents of sitar strings. ?The Wayfarer? dance languidly embraces the cosmic ?gong? while clapping seems to demand an alert mind. ?Vilayat?s Song? features the worldly voice of Vilayat Hussain amid crystalline drones and sparkling bells. Our Unknown Dervish is ?honored? with an unsettling yet redemptive anthem; angelic voices echo, then a throaty drone adds ominous undercurrents to sensuous drumbeats. The multi-talented spacemusic composer plays keyboards, sitar, and surbahar; Saam Schlamminger plays percussion; and Gilles Zimmerman plays viola da gamba.
