With this release the Gordon brothers have compiled a variety of music from an extensive list of recordings. This album features flutes, guitars and a wide range of instruments from around the world. The compositions focus on primal rhythms produced by David and his brother Steve. The alchemy of Native American flutes, Incan pan pipes, acoustic and electric guitars blend into natural soundscapes that generate positive energy and tranquility.
Unlike most percussion-driven collections, the tracks on this release are relaxing. The tribal rhythms tend to inspire movement and dance, making this album a good one for active yoga environments. The overall feel of these candid compositions would work well in a holistic environment.

Earth Drum is a rather special album from the Sequoia label - The 25th Anniversary Collection, Vol. 1. Part of Sequoia’s new "Music and Vision" series, this is a multi-media double disc release. To celebrate the occasion, the Gordon brothers have looked back over a twenty-five year career to pull together some percussive highlights showcasing their love of ethnic music and the richness of beaten skins. Eight tracks of tranquil, inviting music along with a free DVD are presented as the result. The visuals are in the form of breathtaking sceneries slowly unfolding before the eye - lush forests clothed with dense mosses, immense canyons and dramatic rock formations, heaving rivers and mist shrouded falls, panoramic plains, rolling ocean waves. Whether this package comes to you as an introduction to David and Steve Gordon's music or as a familiar highlights album, you won't disappointed, it seems that every effort has been put into making this a quality release jam packed with written, musical and visual content.
