'Master drummer Asher takes an interesting side trip into finding percussion in multi string instruments and finding a way to bring it together for trance/meditation music in a new way. A delightfully contemplative set that brings a lot of depth into the mix and creates a sonic safe place for those that need to slip on the head phones and get away from it all.' - Chris Spector, Midwest Record Recap 'Lotus Path features nearly an hour of mystical mood music comprised of chant, flowing synthesizers and string instruments. The album was designed to enhance inner journeys, which it does beautifully thanks to Ashers skill with long form ambient compositions. The music is powerfully soothing, which makes it a fantastic aid for relaxation and healing arts practices.' - Music Design, May/June 2004
