MYSTIC SPIRIT VOICES, from Lesiem, is a contemporary foray into new age pop that blends Gregorian chant and Baroque religious music with electronic percussion and rock influences. Take "Fundamentum" - this song uses men's choral vocals against a melancholy backdrop that pairs electric guitar chords with pipe organ solos, resulting in what sounds like a post-modern Bach cantata. From uplifting and ethnic ("Una Terra," "Ave Fortuna") to dark and bittersweet ("Open Your Eyes," "Vivere"), this little piece of heaven shows that, with the right elements, spirituality can be exciting.
