andrewdenehelbig I love Grandfather's Icaro. The sound of the flute in the jungle is just so peaceful and ponderous. The flute really does sound like some wise old grandfather, too. Favorite track: Grandfather's Icaro.

AJ Thank you for the music you make✨

about

Instrumental Spirit melodies from the heart of the Amazon to inspire, immerse and celebrate nature's blessings. Most of these melodies are derived from Shipibo tradition, and altered to be played on flutes.
Traditionally, an Icaro aka sonic pattern, is a melody received by the shaman in his journey in the spirit world, and it's these icaros that hold the grid and the space for healing and vision to happen to the participants in plant medicine ceremonies. Usually they are being sung, in Shipibo culture without any instruments, in other indigenous tribes with instruments like the 'Chakapa', and instrument made of leaves from the Chakapa bush, a plant that has been around since the prehistory and is said to contain the memory of all evolution of the rainforest and with that all the spirits and teachings of all the plants and animals in the jungle.
These contemporary interpretations of Icaros are played on special flutes, made of Tobacco branch and ancient wood that had been stored in a swamp for over 40.000 years. All the tracks are driven by the trance-like groove of the Chakapa leaves and the heart beat of the shaman's drum - Percussion, jaw harps and different mallet instruments like the balafon and mini-hang are used to bring in different colors and textures - all these sonic structures are embedded with original field recordings of the Amazon jungle by night. Everything you hear is acoustic, meticulously played and recorded by myself. There are no electronic or digital devices used in this production, except for some effects in post.

I dedicate this album to the teachers of the forest, the plants and the trees, and to the Shipibo shamans, especially the Mahua family, to all my friends, brothers and sisters on the path and to everyone looking to liberate themselves through the path of plant medicine, or any shamanic/holistic practice.

This is probably my favourite ever album. I have been struggling a lot with anxiety, and this is just the purest healing music I have ever felt. Singing along with it is pure medicine. Fell so blessed to have found this beautiful magical music. <3 darkmoondreamer
