"Mantra" by Margot Reisinger with Existence (Spiritual Artist from Portugal)

The beautiful spiritual album, "Mantra" by Margot Reisinger with Existence, is a compilation of multi-religious prayers or mantras put into musical form. The detail that is put into the articulation of the Hebrew, Arabic, Latin, and Sanskrit words makes the listener feel as though they are with the native speaker. The music is ambient and reflects the cultural melodies from which each of the prayers are drawn which keeps the listener on a calming and relaxed level while still varying in tone due to the use of different instruments on each track. "Shiva Shankara" is a wide, echoing track that praises the Hindu God Shiva who dwells high in the peaks of the Himalayas. As the track progresses and the vocal range expands, it's as if the listener is being carried up to meet the divine Shiva himself. "Jesu Domine" is from a Latin hymn dedicated to Christianity and offers sweet and delicate choir like voices complemented by soft and gentle percussion. The spiritual world music of "Mantra" will uplift your body and soul and is an album well worth listening to.

"Facets" by Todd Beaney and John M. Dolan (Spiritual Artist from New York(NY))

"Facets" is the latest release from the talented duo Todd Beaney and John M. Dolan. It is a wonderful contemporary Christian album recorded mostly with the piano and the trumpet, and is filled with these instruments playing beautiful hymns in a variety of fashions. "Jesus Loves Me" is a toe-tapping number, with a solid jazz backbone and crisp trumpet playing that is amiable and upbeat. "When Morning Gilds the Skies" is a dulcet number in which we hear the piano reflectively talk and the trumpet alluringly croons. "Down at the Cross" is a song that has a little bit of Dixie-jazz feel to it and is infectiously upbeat. "Facets" is an album that is perfect for those who enjoy Christian hymns, but would like to hear a novel and creative approach to this. It also, on its own, is a great collection of jazzy, funky, and introspective examples of the combination of skillful trumpet and piano playing.

"Alone But Not Alone" by Doug Munro (Spiritual Artist from New York(NY))

Doug Munro's debut solo album "Alone But Not Alone" is a wonderful collection of live instrumental studio recordings in which each song is inspired by spiritual passages from the Bible and other sources. In "Worship" we hear Munro's skills upon the acoustic guitar in a down tempo song that is calming and introspective. "The Journey" is a song in which a cool and interesting percussive lead is followed by both bluesy and funky guitar playing, in a fun-loving and celebratory musical number. The spiritual classic, "Amazing Grace," Munro incorporates some cool subtle psychedelic sounds in the background as he plays an emotive version of the song on his guitar. This is an album that might best be described as contemporary instrumental/inspirational music. It's heartfelt and you can hear how much the musician values his spirituality. If you enjoy calm and uplifting tunes or music that is intended with thoughtful reflective insight, then Doug Munro's "Alone But Not Alone" is well worth listening to.
