Shelter | Devotionally Sensual Music
A few days before when I first wrote about Rasa’s Shelter, a new comer in my personal collection, I did promise my Midos that I would write more about this romantic album. Here am with it:
There are many things about this album that attract me, notably the symbolic love of Radha and Krishna. I am a highly sensual person and value the sensual feelings no less than the spiritual experience, and vice versa. And for a personal like me who doesnt divide sensual and spiritual world, albums like Shelter take away the heart at first listening.
The album has 8 tracks, listed below:
1. Gauranga Karuna
2. Ar Koto Kal
3. Narada Muni
4. Jaya Radha
5. Panduranga
6. Arunodaya
7. Daniatmika
8. Vaishnava Vijnapti
As I have titled this post, this album is DEVOTIONALLY SENSUAL and if you
have any difficulty in understanding this new term, you have to listen the tracks to make sense of this phrase. I personally rate Jaya Radha higher than the other tracks and it carries to me to world where I melt in/ with love. A final word of caution about the album,maybe NOTE is a better term: the track titles make an appearance as if you are to listen to a couple of sanskrit slogas or bhagans in traditional way. But don’t expect both of these in this album. vocalization of the lyric is not sharp ending with each word rather slurring between words. I had trouble understanding the lyric of the tracks but as long as the music is soothing and enjoyable, it’s not a bid deal to me; how about you? you need to decide.
