NADA TERMA (Projekt, 2008)
Nada Terma is definitely a work of kindred spirits. Metcalf, Roach and Seelig are musicians well rooted in the primordial ground of Being, exploring new ways to spread the essence of spiritual wisdom. This album succeed in transcending and integrating musical elements from ancient traditions (sufi, hindu and shamanic) while delivering a sublime aesthetic experience. The seven parts of Nada Terma are revealed as an uninterrupted waveform: from the quiet, formless space take rise a crescendo of harmonics and pulsating rhythms that ends after prolonged moments of intense trance into a point of clarity and surrender. Nada Terma is the offering of a truly inspired collaboration, and an intimate guide to the deepest terrain of our souls. As a radio host and psychotherapist, I think we are incredibly fortunate to have such a powerful experiential tool for healing and awakening.

AMBESSENCE (ad21music, 2008)
There is a clear connection between Ambessence and the previous Sanfilippo's title Piano Textures. The floating, timeless quality of the piano notes is still here, but now the effect is more intense with Grassow's textures couched in subtle drones. Moments of irresistible beauty silently vibrate and resonate inside, opening a vast inner space of clarity and spiritual emotion.
This work seems to require an intuitive mode of perception that seeks to overcome chaotic multiplicity and establish contact with a deep and authentic unifying essence. Beneath the calm waves of Ambessence lies the promise of bliss.

THIS TIME AND SPACE (Earth Mantra, 2008) - reissue
This Time and Space is memorable in its ineffable atmosphere, its capacity to cast a spell on the listener while bringing him more intensely into contact with himself. The sounds flow continuously, dissolving any contrasts and unbinding primordial emotions ... a soundworld of perennial beauty and profound tenderness that captures our yearning for deep peace and contentment. Lovely music for meditation and a landmark recording in the field of Ambient Healing.
