Zaireeka Reflection

Zaireeka, a music of vivid conjuration that causes active participation, is like no music ever heard in today's world. The combination of sound in surround had such dramatic effects on me as a listener. I constantly found myself searching for the sounds; they were not exactly put together in a fluid way like music today. One had to actively combine sounds and at the same separate them from each other. At times I found the sounds waves overpowering my senses. One particular spot in track one set my mind spinning! It reminded me of a video game where the character becomes overwhelmed by everything happening so quickly causing his vision to blur and mix all the events together as one. Amazingly, the sound shifts from this into something simple right back into something very complex. This can be compared to pointillism like in painting. When you step back, everything works together as one image, but up close one see thousands of dots that seem to have no correlation to one another. In order for the image to work, the viewer's eyes have to merge the dots instead of viewing them individually. This is the exact same concept used when listening to these four Cd's. The listener is not given the overall picture/sound but has to discern it from all the information flooding into our eyes and ears. Just how does one go about comprehending all of these sound waves? Each person seems to show a different reaction to this music. Some are enthralled by it, others become curious, and yet others seem too overwhelmed to want to discern the music. It makes me question just who the target audience is. What is the goal and purpose of the music. Entertainment . . .that really doesn't seem to fit. I guess one can only elaborate an answer after listing to the music known as-Zaireeka.
