Jed Rant: Sufi Music
« on: July 03, 2019, 11:25:09 pm »
There are five CDs available on torrent, title ''Sufiaana'' (that's correct spelling). Once downloaded, something like 40 songs, I suggest you go throught them and you will love some and can delete some. A few songs are a little screechy for me. However, you will end up with your own play list of what I find to be incredibly moving songs. and, hey, I ain't moved that easily... well... maybe that's not true. Here is a few of my favs to give you a taste of whether or not you want to put some effort in to it. I will leave them on my torrent so they will be available. Might take a day or two to get them all.

BTW, most of you will be aware, but Sufism has been described as a mystical arm of Islam.







For the researchers, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sufi_poetry

I would love to hear if you are as taken with the music as I am. Maybe it's just me in my old age... IDK (anything).

Love ya, Jed

It's a kind of collective download mechanism that brings in desired files from computers all over the world.

Try Googling the term ''Torrents'' and don't be put off by  all the legal garbage on it, I have used it since a little before the birth of Christ and never had a problem. in the beginning there was... as few Sumaritans who helped me.

Good luck.

Love ya, Jed

I’m a fan of Snatam Kaur’s music; she’s a Sikh. She’s never screechy. She can be found on You Tube and elsewhere. Perhaps a bit further on the yin side of the mystical music wheel?

:D

Accessing my inner torrent.  GOD, I love this place! 

Thank you, Jed

The music is beautiful.  All those voices crying out, with all their heart, into the empty expanse of infinity.
