Scour the Internet, and you'll discover that "zen" is described as a direct, experiential realization of enlightenment through meditation. With this canny definition in mind, hats off to superlative Sydney-based label, Hypnotic Room, for achieving this state in just over an hour's listening bliss. The wonderful music on this album brushes across a state of the ethereal, vaguely aquatic, with a touch of gentle breaks and chilled out soundscapes. Some artists go for an ingenious dub/downtempo/modern jazz angle, replete with dreamy, bouncy acid tones, underlying vocals, and beats that build moment by moment, belying the rush of contemporary life.
