Shamanic
Journey Drumming by Michael Drake. This CD has been
digitally recorded to support the listener in making shamanic
journeys. The spirit journey is a time-honored shamanic method of
inner consultation. Step-by-step instructions for making shamanic
journeys are explained in Michael's book, The Shamanic Drum.
The harmonic overtones and undertones on this recording were
produced by a 22-inch single-headed, elk hide, cedar frame drum
pulsed at four-beats-per-second. This tempo induces a theta wave
cycle in the brain. Theta rhythms are associated with the deepest
states of shamanic consciousness. Researchers have found that if a
tempo of four-beats-per-second is sustained for at least 15
minutes, most people can journey successfully even on their first
attempt. To learn more read Shamanic Journeying. To support your journey you can
choose from three different tracks:
1. 15 minute solo drumming with
callback
2. 15 minute solo drumming with
rattle and callback
3. 30 minute solo drumming with
callback
Reviews
"This is the
perfect album for journeying. The beats are simple and deep as is
needed to successfully journey. Just as necessary are the call
backs. Thank you Michael Drake. Just what I needed."
--iTunes Reviews
"I first
heard Michael's shamanic drumming in 1993 at the Earth and Spirit
conference in Portland, Oregon. His drumming had a hypnotic,
trance-inducing effect on the audience. His CD entitled Shamanic
Journey Drumming is equally powerful and can be used for both
individual and group shamanic experiences."
--Martin Gray, anthropologist, photographer, and author
of Sacred Earth
"This is a
very well done, easy to use sound guide to a shamanic journey. It
consists of nothing but drumming or drumming with a rattle and a
call back for each session."
--M. Garrison Amazon Reviews
"Nice album.
The sound quality is deep and resonant, with a mixture of solo
drumming and solo drumming with a rattle accompanying."
--iTunes Reviews
"I highly
recommend this album to anyone interested in shamanic journeying.
The driving beat, rich acoustics and overtone harmonics readily
induce the altered states necessary for making shamanic journeys.
The companion book The Shamanic Drum is also recommended
reading." 5
Stars.

"Wow, I
purchased this album and since then I have explored journeying.
This album was great through my Qc3 headphones, but when I played
it through my JBL 6" studio monitors in my home studio, WOW!!! THE
TONE!! After 7 min I had to stop it. The fullness and vibrations
were overwhelming. Well done Michael Drake!!!" 5 Stars.
