A CD that reflects the stableness of Mother Earth, and the Love she holds within her spinning Being. This is music for the Earth Hearts among us. This recording comes between Skyhearts in 1994 and High Meditations in 1996, and the relationship to the two works is clear in the empolyment of flute sounds and Native American themes. If you like either or both of the other two works, you'll like this one. Like them, Earth Ground features slow, spacious, serene, smoothly-flowing, and relatively simple sounds that evoke the earth and sky, though unlike them the first track is rhythmic.
All tracks are good.
In this work he seems to be exploring the deeper levels of nature within our being, much as Steve Roach and Robert Rich did in their album Strata. The frequent flute sounds on this recording are quite soothing, electronically processed to create smooth echo effects. This work has very healing and grounding effects for the listener. Mystic, DJ Music Programmer Robert Carty is easily among the most diverse electronica performers of the 1990's. Robert uses his synth as an ethnic instrument, evoking the appropriate imagery of the sensitivity and deep emotion of Native American spirituality.
