Veils of Light by Tim Rayborn Tim Rayborn : Veils of Light.
 Medieval and middle eastern music.

Dance and music predate civilization, and as a musician, Tim Rayborn's mission is to explore our human resonance with rhythm. Veils Of Lightcertainly accomplishes that; it seamlessly gildes in and out of a range of cultures and civilizations including Balkans, the Middle East, and Central Asia, and features the fantastically detailed drum and string work of this incredibly talented multi-instrumentalist. The acoustic aesthetic and crystal clear production values on Veils of Light bestow a beautifully subtle sultriness to it; Tim seems to understand that because his compositions are so highly patterned and vibrant, there's no need to overstate the case. And in an era of hyped-up Hollywood glamour, this distinctly authentic exoticism is a very welcome thing. Check this one out today.
