I saw this CD used at a local record store and grabbed it up on a whim. It's Australian aboriginal music. You've got flutes, percussion, didgeridoos, chants in indigenous languages, and shouts. It's a great meditation CD. Just bliss out.
Ever wonder where the "Domah" sound played on "Due South" came from? It's here on Track 9, "Trading Ground."
Probably my favorite song of the collection is "Follow the Sun." It's one of those songs you need to play on a Monday when things just aren't going right.
If you enjoy varietal world music, "Nomad" is definitely going to be worth the money. It's so well done I'm planning on taking it with me next time I audition speakers.

I used to play this while driving my Land Rover on off-road expeditions with the Southern California Land Rover crew. It took me away from your normal civilization. The chants, the didgeridoo. It was definitely a theme in my adventure travels. It defines "world music".

I have had this CD for 6 years. I don't even know how it ended up on my shelf. I have listened to it regularly for the entire time that I have had it. There is a lot of spirit and soul in this music. It will make you want to move. It is awesome. If you like "world music", drum beats, tribal styles... you will love this CD.

When I bought this CD I said cool Australian music. But When I heard it I was like WOW!! it was ten times better than I expected. Nomad combines the Australian aborigoanl sounds with our very own Native American sounds. The songs I like best are "Wildlife", "Gathering", and "Trading Ground". The first one is a didjereedo only track that is just awsome. The gathering made me feel in an collective mood like i was part of the whole world singing to this song. and the last one trading ground is the best beacuse it combines the East and the West. I loved the chants and the singing especially in "Tracking" and "Follow the Sun" :>

Addictive, powerful, smooth... FFFFFFFFFFFFFUN! The exotic sounds of the didgeridoo compel you to listen, the eruption of flutes and drums drive you into hypnotic trance with the smooth pulsation of voices waking you back up. What a plethora of sounds... It all draws you in. My curiosity turned to awe as the music invaded and stirred my soul. Load this into your MP3 player for your next walkabout.
