RadioIndy is pleased to present Audio Buddha with a GrIndie Award for the CD "Alchemystical"

Audio Buddha’s “Alchemystical” is an ambient electronica album from a trio of classically trained musicians. This New Mexico outfit is comprised of vocalist Ishtar, keyboardist Steve Brisk and violinist Nathaniel Mahlberg. Each member is classically trained at their respective instruments and all of them show their immense talents on this collaborative effort. All of the ambient and electronic sounds are created by Brisk’s keyboard, often coupled by the strong, classically influenced performances on violin and vocal to create a unique sound. Audio Buddha’s songs are intelligent, eclectic and spiritual, aimed at getting themselves and the listener in touch with the divine. The production quality of “Alchemystical” is great, so the album sounds polished, professional and ready to bounce off the walls. “Birth of Dance” opens up the album nicely with waves of ambience, a sudden burst of violin and a beautiful vocal performance that collectively tell you what Audio Buddha is all about. “Mother Goddess” has whispering, summoning vocals and an incredible backing arrangement. With “Alchemystical,” Audio Buddha has created a fascinating and unique genre of music you’ve likely never heard, but certainly should hear. Fans of spiritual, classically trained electronic music should take the time to see what Audio Buddha is all about.-Chris & the RadioIndy.com Review Team
