        "description" : "Pared down and austere, popular Magnatune artist Tilopa's brand new album sounds like serenity itself. His Japanese zen flute (kyotaku) is occasionally accompanied by monastic sounding vocals, and the overall effect is very subdued, meditative. \"Red Fullmoon\" is a particular standout on this album, a track that makes evident why this type of music was once favored by sects of wandering Buddhist monks. Most of the pieces on this album have that same type of traditional, Zen sound, but there are a few more modern pieces here too, such as \"Amigos De Viaje,\" which features acoustic guitar as accompaniment to the kyotaku.",
