As a species and for the diverse species and survival of planet Earth, we must turn our attention to the plight of the Amazon rainforest which is on fire. The Amazon gives Earth 20% of the oxygen that is required for us to live. Greed and indifference from corporations and political leaders exploit and destroy such an area of biodiversity. Let us celebrate the beauty and hopefully realize what could be lost if those responsible for such an atrocity are never brought to justice.

Yes, indeed--horrific. Why are so many of the wrong people in power these days? What a tragedy. I've loved the Amazon rainforest since I was a little kid and often wished I could lose myself in its vastness and luxuriance.

This is a little out of left field but mesmerizing all the same. To quote the uploader, "Found this amazing little [Ayahuasca shaman] whistling video on a Joe Rogan podcast, fell in love with it, and made it into a 1hr loop."

I always found the music of the Aborigines of Australia very mesmerizing to listen to. The most common instrument that is associated with the native peoples of Down Under is called a Didgeridoo. It is a wind instrument shaped like a long pipe that can measure from 3 to 10 feet in length. The word itself is a corruption of Irish Gaelic for "trumpet". It is often accompanied by other rhythm instruments and singing and chanting.

When I went to Glastonbury 2009 we all purchased dideridoos there---they are great fun!

World Music also embraced the subcategory of World Music Ambient, which is ambient music based on indigenous rhythms and styles except used with modern instrumentation and synthesizers. Be careful when playing this. It works. (I tried it. Rained all day the next day.) Unless, of course, you want it to rain.

Ah. I was wondering whether non-traditional arrangements were allowed here. Wink  I love that brief footage at 2:10! The world has lost a lot, to be sure.

One of the comments from two years ago rings rather true today: "Please I pray...bring the rain to the wildfire".

This is arguably my favourite rendition by the Bulgarian State Television Female Vocal Choir. The soloist on the utterly heartbreaking "Kalimankou Denkou" (The Evening Gathering) is Yanka Rupkina. You need look no further than Volume One of Le Mystère des Voix Bulgares, an extraordinary album from start to finish.

I enjoyed that. It was very peaceful. The original footage was an eye opener, too!
