Gino Foti talks about the music on Bhavachakra, "Realized from Buddha's visions, the esoteric and contrasting imagery of The Wheel of Life, with each aspect of its four concentric circles packed with rich symbolism and direct, hard-hitting metaphors, became the inspiration for my next project. I decided to concentrate on ambient, atmospheric, cinematic, and/or textural types of arrangements by adding modern instrumentation to loops and samples with traditional Asian and/or Indian influences. Given the number of compositions needed for conceptual purposes, I also decided to restrict myself to one compact disc by including some miniatures. Although most of the arrangements are sedate when compared to my other projects, the music is not meant to be listened to as "background noise" or act as a meditative device by masking or cleansing all thoughts and feelings, but to immerse the listener in a collection of exotic soundscapes and evoke as many emotions and memories as possible." Instrumental Guitar (Electric/World/Fusion), total running time, 68:45 - Gino Foti @ iTunes!
