		The concept is to present a variety of music from Asian lands and cultures, and it's not a bad one.
		The cover promises that this is "a soothing, inspirational brew of exotic music steeped in the traditions of Asia's tea lands." Soothing it is. Perhaps I'm confused about what they call "tea lands," but I wasn't expecting music from Tatarstan in central Asia, or Persia, Pakistan and Turkey, for that matter.
		And while Indonesian gamelan music is fascinating to watch in performance, on recording it can sound like garden-variety electronica -- Ujang Suryana's beautiful flute playing doesn't save "Kang Mandor" from sounding like synthesized clockwork.
