Comments:
This is without a doubt the most ambitious album project of my life. It includes 18 individual performers and 2 bands, for a total of 26 musicians. There are many didgeridoo solos, duets, and ensemble pieces by America's best known didgeridoo players as well as by many outstandingly talented lesser known players. There are also quite a few compositions that include a variety of other instruments. In some cases the didgeridoo is accompanied by very simple percussion, perhaps only clapsticks, and in other cases there are more complex assortments of instruments, including guitar, drums and percussion from all over the world, jaw harp, shenai, vocals, synthesizer, and more. The overall variety in didge playing styles and music production is simply astounding. Much of the material was recorded in my studio, but quite a bit was recorded by the various artists in other studios. The common thread that ties it all together is inspired didgeridoo playing and a commitment to feature the didge as a vital component of every composition. Most of the didge tracks were done with traditional Australian eucalyptus didges, but many were also done with agave (an American Southwest desert plant) didges and with didges made out of a great variety of other materials.
