Increasing numbers of people are finding themselves drawn to the ethereal and intriguing sounds that have travelled into Europe and America, primarily from Mongolia and Tuva in the former Soviet Union. Most recently popularised in the West by the touring musicians Huun Huur Tu, Yat Kha, and Sainkho Namatchlyak this fascinating style* of singing allows the simultaneous production of two or more notes by the same singer. This astounding feat is accomplished by deliberate enhancement of the natural harmonics found in our voices. The voice, mouth, lips, teeth, jaw, throat, tongue, lungs and diaphragm can all be used in a subtle and complex concert that will allow you to produce these wonderful sounds. This book will lead you through the whole process in easy-to-follow sections with plenty of illustrations, whilst the enclosed CD will allow you to hear the sounds you should be making at each stage. *Actually many styles, as we will see.
Author Jonathan Cope has studied overtone singing for the last fifteen years and has trained with many of the leaders in this field.

Regular price
£19.99
Sale price
£15.99
Experience the majesty and mystery of the Northern Lights, Aurora Borealis, in your own home with this stunning DVD.
Elusive, mystical and magical, the Northern Lights, or Aurora Borealis, have filled people with awe and wonder since ancient times and, in the quests for explanations of this phenomenon, many myths have emerged. Even though we now know much of the "truth" about the Northern Lights, we can still be awestruck by the beauty of these natural fireworks.
Produced by professional artic photographer Bjørn Jørgensen this DVD contains hundreds of beautiful photos of the Northern Lights, and also several time-lapse sequences so you can actually see the auroras move on the night sky. The photos are accompanied by music specially written for this DVD, composed by the acclaimed film music composers Geir Bøhren and Bent Åserud. The music can be described as "arctic sound", and it complements the photos and films brilliantly.
This DVD is guaranteed to give you a unique and breathtaking experience.

Paradolia - A visual meditation DVD. Wonderful images
Regular price
£9.99
Sale price
£4.50
Paradolia
Mandalas and kaleidoscopic images of symmetry in nature that reveal flower and tree spirits, nature guardians and angelic beings.
Over 400 stunning full-colour images and a beautifully meditative sound-track of harmonic overtone singing for a truly immersive and mesmerising audio-visual experience.
Over four years in the making, the images inspire a journey to the centre - to the within and the without, to connect ourselves to the beauty that surrounds us once we truly open our eyes to look.
All images were created by digitally layering photographs of natural forms: plants, trees, rocks, water, sky, animals, etc. This complex process brings forth divine symmetry born of sacred geometry and allows us to glimpse the living energy inherent in all creation.
DVD contains no spoken language - just pure harmonic overtones sung by Jonathan Cope.

Sale price
£14.99
Flint Knapping book - a practical guide to creating your own stone tools.
23 x 16cm. 65 pages and over 100 illustrations in colour.
A practical guide to the ancient skill of flint knapping – the shaping of tools and weapons using naturally occurring stone. Used by our earliest ancestors, this craft was one of the more important survival skills for hundreds of thousands of years.
This guide assumes no previous knowledge and leads the reader through all the various stages involved in shaping flint (and other materials) into usable tools. It should also be useful for those that have already tried knapping and wish to further their skills. Whether your interest lies in recreating ancient artefacts, learning a new skill, keeping an ancient craft alive, making tools for Bushcraft or ‘survival’ skills or just trying something different I hope that this guide will help you appreciate the skills and intelligence needed by our ancestors.
