The crispy, warm and organic infused ambient with occasional parts of guitar and bass creates a lovely, timeless sound with psychedelic flavours and presented in a clear, transparent sound spectrum.\n\nOver the years and different albums the band have taken several musical influences and channeled them into something that is truly their own. But if comparisons must be made it could be with The Orb or Future Sound Of London. Expect a masterful blend of analog and digital sounds, which will carry you away on a psychedelic journey through the gardens of dubby, hypnotic ambient with a sense of hope and being.\n\nAs the Band says:\n\n\"With our Music we would like to encourage self and cosmic consciousness, respect for Nature and sacred plants, and development of the human being through exploration of the self, arts and meditation. To explore the dimensions of the magic garden, whether it be vegetable, animal or more spiritual and cosmic, is to undertake a trip toward our deeper perception, which recalls the multiple faces of our vital cradle, Mother Earth, Gaia. What we want to represent is a range of vibrations that can only be discovered through careful listening. By using certain sounds that are close to our emotional and spiritual sphere, we want to represent our origins, our roots, which in everyday life aren't always represented at their best, but which can certainly help in taking a better approach toward our existence.\"\n\nFor the full discography check: esesound.bandcamp.com", "photo" : "https://magnatune.com/artists/img/entheogenic_sound_explorers.jpg", "web_url" : "https://magnatune.com/artists/entheogenic_sound_explorers/", "albums" : [{ "sku" : "soundexplorers-magicgarden", "name" : "Magic Garden", "artist" : { "name" : "Entheogenic Sound Explorers", "page" : "entheogenic_sound_explorers" }, "release_date" : "2024-08-05", "genres" : ["Ambient","Experimental"], "vocals" : "vocals", "moods" : ["hypnotic","meditative","spiritual","hopeful","ethereal","peaceful"], "uses" : ["meditation or yoga","spa or massage","study or focus","podcast background","nature documentary","emotional storytelling"], "energy" : 2, "instrumentation" : ["dub-influenced bass","ambient synths","textural soundscapes","subtle vocal layers"], "sounds_like" : [], "summary" : "Dubby, hypnotic ambient with hopeful, spiritual vibes; ideal for meditation, nature docs, and calm background listening.", "cover" : "https://magnatune.com/music/Entheogenic%20Sound%20Explorers/Magic%20Garden/cover_400.jpg", "web_url" : "https://magnatune.com/artists/albums/soundexplorers-magicgarden/", "api_url" : "https://magnatune.com/api/albums/soundexplorers-magicgarden", "buy_url" : "https://magnatune.com/buy/album?sku=soundexplorers-magicgarden" },{ "sku" : "soundexplorers-fifthdimension", "name" : "The Fifth Dimension", "artist" : { "name" : "Entheogenic Sound Explorers", "page" : "entheogenic_sound_explorers" }, "release_date" : "2022-01-21", "genres" : ["Ambient","Experimental"], "vocals" : "vocals", "moods" : ["hypnotic","meditative","hopeful","dreamy","spiritual","calm"], "uses" : ["meditation or yoga","spa or massage","study or focus","podcast background","nature documentary","emotional storytelling"], "energy" : 2, "instrumentation" : ["dubby ambient textures","layered vocals","synths","atmospheric pads"], "sounds_like" : [], "summary" : "Dubby, hypnotic ambient with hopeful, spiritual vocals and a sense of being; ideal for meditation, yoga, spa, study, or nature documentaries.", "cover" : "https://magnatune.com/music/Entheogenic%20Sound%20Explorers/The%20Fifth%20Dimension/cover_400.jpg", "web_url" : "https://magnatune.com/artists/albums/soundexplorers-fifthdimension/", "api_url" : "https://magnatune.com/api/albums/soundexplorers-fifthdimension", "buy_url" : "https://magnatune.com/buy/album?sku=soundexplorers-fifthdimension" },{ "sku" : "soundexplorers-pathtomyth", "name" : "Path to Myth", "artist" : { "name" : "Entheogenic Sound Explorers", "page" : "entheogenic_sound_explorers" }, "release_date" : "2021-03-19", "genres" : ["Ambient","Experimental"], "vocals" : "instrumental", "moods" : ["hypnotic","meditative","hopeful","mysterious","spiritual","dreamy"], "uses" : ["meditation or yoga","spa or massage","study or focus","podcast background","nature documentary","emotional storytelling"], "energy" : 2, "instrumentation" : ["ambient synths","nature sounds","dub-influenced basslines","ethereal vocals","textural electronics"], "sounds_like" : [], "summary" : "Dubby, hypnotic ambient with hopeful, spiritual depth and nature-infused textures; ideal for meditation, focus, or atmospheric storytelling.", "cover" : "https://magnatune.com/music/Entheogenic%20Sound%20Explorers/Path%20to%20Myth/cover_400.jpg", "web_url" : "https://magnatune.com/artists/albums/soundexplorers-pathtomyth/", "api_url" : "https://magnatune.com/api/albums/soundexplorers-pathtomyth", "buy_url" : "https://magnatune.com/buy/album?sku=soundexplorers-pathtomyth" }] }, "license" : { "music_license" : "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 1.0 (CC BY-NC-SA 1.0)", "music_license_url" : "https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/1.0/", "listening" : "Stream the free previews, or buy an album for $8 to download it in MP3, AAC, ALAC, FLAC, OGG or WAV. 100% of the price goes to the musician.", "non_commercial" : "Non-commercial projects may use the music under CC BY-NC-SA 1.0: credit the artist and Magnatune, and share alike.", "projects" : "Magnatune members may use any Magnatune music in their projects, commercial or not (videos, films, podcasts, games, apps, websites, adverts), including work for clients, under the Magnatune Project Licence.
