“Goddess Asherah Project – “The land of Joy”
By Adele Sinnamon
Hisham Zreiq is a Palestinian visual artist and film maker living in Germany. He is also an electronic musician and the Goddess Asherah Project is his outlet of experimenting with ambient soundscapes which in essence could be a soundtrack for one of his movies. August has seen the release of the album The land of Joy, which contains thirteen instrumental tracks.
The album is full of light with its chimes, oriental styled sounds and rhythms. It flows with the titles fitting so well and the feel of each track is conveyed through the music. “Delight” invokes a taste of India and it truly is a delight to listen to, while “Frisky” has playful bleeps that run at a whirlwind pace.
The land of Joy should be listened to when you want to unwind or need to be taken away to a place where you can be free to dream.
The Canaanite Goddess Asherah has the power to grant you joy in the electronic world.
