Although titled GODS AND GODDESSES, the main inspiration behind this album of ethereal chant is actually just one God and Goddess - the feminine and masculine divinities of Radha and Krishna. The love between the two deities is considered to be the ultimate manifestation of divine love, and it's that sense of union that John Richardson and Pia sought to personify on this recording. Their intertwining vocals are both lilting and emotive, conveying a sweetness that fits the album's theme perfectly. Instrumentation-wise, the album skews towards light and celestial synth/keyboard backings, with shimmering effects and subtle tabla-based rhythm. It's a very upbeat, joyous album of chant that will surely lift the spirit and help you emulate the love between the divine in your own life.
