Summary: A really, really nice mix of ethnic and electronic elements. My favorite track is the second one, "Temple of the Rising Dawn." I actually got this album a couple of years ago, when we were in... Hawai'i, I think? Anyway, I'm pretty sure that it was on Mau'i; we had been puttering around various stores and I zeroed in on the music in one of those stores and... voila~ Found this album and have loved it ever since. Such a gorgeous album. ♥

Summary: ... quite literally, I stumbled upon Annbjørg Lien by accident today. XD; Was just browsing Emusic.com, was checking out the International section, and clicked on 'Nordic' by accident. :D;; Was going to click back--until I saw the title track on this album. Loki's one of my favorite gods to read about, and when I listened to the snippet of the song... I fell in love. XD It's so interestingly composed, and I love how everything comes together to just fit. The album overall has more of a general Celtic feel to it rather than a Nordic one (but I could be wrong...), and it's definitely worth a download for something new to try. ^^

Summary: My Otouto gave me BT's Emotional Technology a while ago and... I've fallen in love with BT's music ever since. It's very... calming, very soothing. It's definitely my default music that I listen to when I'm Roleplaying or when I'm writing. Everything meshes so well--the singing, the theme of the song, the music itself. BT's an incredible artist, and I hope that more and more people are able to realize this from these two albums. He's been nicknamed the Father of Techno and it really does show. He's good at what he does, and he's passionate about it, too. It's reflected in the music.
