FROM THE MUSICIAN “A sweet melody, a beautiful sound, is something that we’re all naturally, easily, effortlessly attracted to. Instead of being focused on one thing or another, the mind lets go and you feel an expansion, and ideally, a joy, or as Alan Watts used to say, “the Floodlight Consciousness”, instead of the focused, the spotlight. My goal with Universal Love Currents was to create music with an energy that could attune one to a higher vibration. Whether you hear it in a yoga class or during a massage or during a reiki session, I hope it makes you feel safe so you can let go. If you can be absorbing that energy and take it with you into your life, into your world, and in the course of that action give it away, give it to others. . . that would be my heart’s dream fulfilled.” – James Mikael NEWS/REVIEWS “Serene piano, the sweet sounds of nature, lush synthesizers – each can be beautiful in their own right, but mix them together and you have a recipe for peace and tranquility. UNIVERSAL LOVE CURRENTS from James Mikael is an album of sublime melodies that enriches the romantic spirit in us all. Mikael keeps the piano subtle which makes for a better interplay with the album’s other elements which include a symphony of birdsong on “Nature’s Gift” or the angelic cooing on “Love’s Ecstasy.” This is music for the mind – it will lift your spirits and fill you with joy. –Music Design In Review, November/December 2001
