Music reviews of Sacred Journey of Ku-Kai 4
Music Review: Journey to the heart and beyond
Rating: 5 Stars
Few Kitaro albums will put you into intensive state of tranquility, and this is one of them. It only needs one listen to create an atmosphere in which you will fall into imaginary world of beauty and serenity which will accompany you 'till the very end of your listening experience.
This haunting album is by my oppinion one of the best Kitaro has created in recent years, and along with Sacred Journey of Ku-Kai Volume 1, best in the whole Ku-Kai series so far.
The highlights included in this album are the mesmerizing 1st track called 'Lotus Mountain' which will give you the instant feeling of serenity. Then continuing the balance of soothing your soul, using carefully selected sounds is presented in the following 3 tracks of the album. Afterward came 'South Wind' which will literally blow away your problems; 'Circle Pray' with the haunting voices will put you in the journey to another dimension, while 'Requiem' (one of my favorites) will remind you of your lost love, desires, creating an atmosphere of lust, compassion and will definetlly give you goosebumps and something to wonder about after the track slowly finishes. And in the end there is the upbeat 'Ritual Winds' with the amazingly displayed rhythm and beautifully played electric violin, which will let you think about the most exotic and most treasured places you have been to, or you have seen.
All in all, this is excellent Kitaro release, and highly recommended both to the old Kitaro fans, and also to the newcomers of this genre.

Description of Sacred Journey of Ku-Kai 4
"Kitaro's style is the epitome of the contemplative, highly melodic synthesizer music." -- VH1.com"Kitaro sculpts a music that balances between pastoral and deep space environments, desert flute melodies and arcing synthesizer solos. Sacred Journey of Ku-kai retains the classic Kitaro sound of the 1980s but is played now with a renewed spirit." -- John Diliberto, Billboard
* The fourth volume in a collection of albums inspired by the classic Buddhist pilgrimage to the 88 temples of the Japanese island Shikoku, ancestral home of the beloved Buddhist holy man Ku-kai.
* Each track on this album revolves around the unique bell sound from each temple, using actual sampling and Kitaro's inspired musical interpretations and distillations of their essences. Volume four breaks new ground with the addition of violinist Steve Kindler (member of The Honolulu Symphony, and former member of John McLaughlin's fusion band).
* Grammy and Golden Globe winner Kitaro has garnered global acclaim over a three-decade career as a composer and musician of sound collaborations and resonant compositions. Kitaro's atmospheric, powerfully emotive, and multi-textured music truly defies the constraints of any genre.
