"The Certaintity of Being Found" by Ian C. Bouras (Reggae Artist from New York City, New York(NY))

The smooth sounds on Ian C. Bouras' album, "The Certaintity of Being Found," are a fantastical trip of unique musical talent. This album almost surprises the listener with the range of genres that are under the artist's label of "ambient." From Reggae to flamenco guitar to a little dub step, this album packs a punch...in the most melodious way possible. "Thoughts On Angles and Sarcasm (Interlude)" is a track that breathes. That is to say, it has a slight pause every couple of seconds after each of which a fuller tone of the song comes out. Utilizing an acoustic guitar that is confident and solid, this track really speaks to the talent of the artist. "The Bounce," as its name may suggest, is a groovy, danceable tune, and has slow moving tempo interludes; adding to the easy listening vibe that comes with each of these tracks. All around, "The Certaintity of Being Found" is great for fans that enjoy fresh and original ambient Reggae music.

"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.

"The Wind Gave Me This Story" by Miho Saigo (World Artist from Japan)

Miho Saigo's debut CD, "The Wind Gave Me This Story," is a captivating work of Eastern tones and contemporary melodies, expressed in the rich vernacular of a Mongolian 2-stringed instrument called a morin khuur. Similar in sound and size to a cello (although slightly smaller with a more box-like body), the morin khuur produces a varied sound, much dependent on the performer's unique artistry, which, in Saigo's case, is considerable. Accompanied mainly by spare and nuanced piano, the 7 instrumental pieces on "The Wind Gave Me This Story" evoke the wild plains of Mongolia with deep and inspired reverie. A plaintive melody infuses CD-opener, "A Song of Wind and Sky," a song of wonderment for nature's bounty, while Saigo effectively plays with rhythm on the visually evocative, "A White Horse in Suho." While the beautiful "The Kite" is less buoyant than one might infer, its pastoral melody is like a kite's tail gliding across an open sky with infinite grace. Equal parts Asian World music and New Age soundscapes, Miho Saigo's "The Wind Gave Me This Story" CD is an engaging and spiritual album for listeners with imagination as profound as wind.

"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.

"Patiently" by Jason Dolan (Folk Artist from San Francisco, California(CA))

The entertaining debut CD released from talented artist Jason Dolan is titled "Patiently." In it Dolan has created a collection of Folk/Rock songs that vary from mellow and reserved to excited and rock-like that all follow his vocals first, and then his guitar. The opener, "Cassie" is a spirited song in which Dolan is accompanied by drums as he, at times comically, laments over a failed relationship. "Shades of Grey" is a song in which he sings and talks quickly, yet plays his guitar slowly and soulfully, to create a juxtaposed folk song that is quite entertaining for the ears. "Isabel" is a more traditional folk song, with just Dolan and his guitar, as he shows off his deft vocal talents in a song with emotive lyrics. It is probably Dolan's background as humorous poet that is the reason why his brand of Folk/Rock orbits closely around his voice and words more-so than the average musician, yet this is what gives the album is undeniable uniqueness. If you enjoy vivaciously written folk music or would like to hear what an accomplished poet with a guitar might sound like, then listen to "Patiently" by Jason Dolan as you will find this album filled with new and refreshing compilations.

"Samurai Sax" by Bubba Ramey (R&B Artist from California(CA))

The latest album by Bubba Ramey goes by the name of "Samurai Sax." It is a collection of both soothing and exciting instrumental R&B/Soul music whose main focus is the brilliant saxophone playing of Bubba Ramey. The song, "B-hop," features Ramey demonstrating his ability to hold long notes as he calmly plays over a shuffling contemporary R&B beat. "Sarumba" is a song in which R&B is skillfully fused with a little bit of a Latin flair as Ramey plays passionately on his sax. "Don't Tarry Children" is a song in which we hear how the saxophone can best be used as an emotive instrument. In this album Ramey combines R&B subtly with a variety of genres for his background music, and then lets his saxophone become the vocalist and story teller. Whether you enjoy the smooth sounds of contemporary R&B music or are just a fan of the enchanting sound of a well played sax, you will enjoy the collection of songs on "Samurai Sax" by Bubba Ramey.
