I discovered Klaus Wiese in 1998 and asked the obstetrician to play this music during my 24- hour labor. The doctor decided to play this album through the loudspeakers of the whole hospital. Many patients said they wished they would always play this. It helped me breathe and flow with the rhythm of the Universe. Klaus Wiese made a very substantial contribution to the world of ambiant, meditative music.
not gonna say anything new age or fancy like everyone else has in this thread of comments... Heres the brutal honesty of this album. It’s seriously dope... And I’m gonna keep listening to it every time I sleep and while I workout. Thank you for being so fucking talented 😊👍.
Everyone else in this thread of comments??? There's 6 comments, 2 of which use fancy words XD. "Hmmm.....I wonder who he is talking about?" Just poking fun, I admire your spirit. (When I say spirit, I just mean the conventional meaning, which is general attitude/enthusiasm for something, not referring to anything new age or fancy ;).
Leo James hahaha I know it sounds crazy.. The truth is, I think there’s a misconception about the things a person needs to do to get themselves pumped up before or while working out. Personally, I want to be in a calm and relaxed state of mind in order to get optimal results for working out, studying or sleeping.. Whereas most people think they need get amped up, as if they’re tapping into some sort of extra level of energy to attack their work out session or maybe drink coffee while studying... I’ve tried it before and nothing works better than putting yourself in a meditative state to relax and focus. Eventually you will build incredible habits as a by product from staying disciplined and the this type of music really helps hit those abnormal peeks and mental states that are challenging for most people because their minds are cluttered with distractions throughout every single day.. Anyways, to answer your question -that’s why I listen to this music lol 😆👍.
@@kyzersoze.musicology I completely agree with studying, but I'm unsure about working out and lifting weights, pretty sure techno does a better job at exalting passions that fuel the energy
Not even close. These singing bowl recordings are definitely his worst. They're just too monochrome and unchanging compared with his incredibly diverse and mystical early material.
I hear you. But it depends on what your aim is. I’ve listened to everything by Klaus I can find, but for certain moments like bathing, sleeping, or meditating, the singing bowl recordings are for me unparalleled. I drive 40 minutes to a tai chi class weekly, and played “A Touch of Silence” regularly to induce a tranquil, focused mindset. I certainly understand the criticism of “monochrome.” It’s basically the same tone over and over. But during stressful times that can be so helpful. I live in a noisy apartment, and since the pandemic started, I often will let “A Touch of Silence” play in the background throughout the day. If you focus on it intensely at high volume, it ceases to be boring. It also makes fine “background” music. I even turned my 70 year old father who listens to nothing but Bach onto it. I love everything Klaus has done, but just wanted to throw in this defense of his so-called monochrome work. Particularly for those with anxiety, the repetitive, soft, soothing nature of it can be a lifesaver.

Thats amazing

Absolutely blissful! One of the smoothest, sweetest, softest, most soulful sessions and recording of singing bowls I've ever heard. Give thanks!
Very healing. Total brain massage,. What a master.
Klaus for life. I love burning incense and painting to his sound legacy.
JUST -wow!
Heaven
I've been listining to this for about 10 years. It's one of the most restful of sounds.
depth of mystical intensity
a true gem besides Deuters "Nada Himalaya"

@@pape37 I totally agree with you. The monochrome work of Klaus Wiese is the most anxiety-fighting soundscape I have found so far.
Shangri-La
