Release Notes:
--------------
An album that combines Eastern rhythms with the technology
(synthesizer) of the West. It features authentic Sufi-rhythms with
contemporary influences. Music that carries you away to otherwise
unreachable spheres.
Al Gromer Khan is a prolific ambient sound designer who has released
about one and a quarter CDs per year since 1990. Some of them are among
the best electro-tribal discs of all time. While Konya does not reach
quite that level, it is still very good. Khan mixes his virtuoso sitar
with electronic atmospheres and large doses of positive energy to
create a new meditative classical style. This is Khan's "paisley music"
-- it is a creation rather than a definition. His style is unique and
smooth. This CD will appeal to fans of Robert Rich, Klaus Wiese, David
Parsons, and Deborah Van Dyke. ~ Jim Brenholts, All Music Guide
