Deborah Martin is an extremely sensitive performer.
Under the Moon is a Native American-influenced ambient CD. With assistance from the usual Spotted Peccary crew,
Martin creates a very reverent and respectful soundscape to honor the cultures of Native Americans. The subtle acoustics augment her electronics and the electronics take the ethnicity to higher planes and exotic locations.
Martin's atmospheres are dense and expansive. Deep listeners will follow her willingly and respectfully with no hesitation. This disc will appeal to fans of
Marina Raye,
R. Carlos Nakai,
Douglas Spotted Eagle, and
Perry Silverbird. [In 2015, Spotted Peccary reissued
Under the Moon in a 20th Anniversary Edition, remastered from the original master tapes and featuring a new booklet.] ~ Jim Brenholts
