Honor. It is a word steeped in historical tradition and the warrior ethos. But what does it mean today? Who better to explore the subject than my brother from an Italian mother, Daniele Bolelli.
This frequency narrative moves strongly through Theta and Alpha ranges and acts like a scrubbing of the soul. A variety of pulsating geometric shapes of white noise and processed Tibetan singing bowl set the tone for this track whose precisely constructed frequencies call forth feelings of clarity and intelligence, as well as third eye opening, astral awareness, and serotonin release.
Full track is available at http://aubreymarcus.com/binaural-beats/
A profoundly deep meditation which starts at a pure Theta frequency and descends to pure Delta over the span of the track. This patient and delicate morphing downward of brainwaves begins with a sense of calm, opens into a meditative state of release, and finishes with a fall into a deep dreamlike ocean of no-mind consciousness.
Full track is available at http://aubreymarcus.com/binaural-beats/
This classic approach to binaural beats is super charged. It begins at a pure Beta frequency and slowly evolves to pure Gamma over the course of the track. A sense of general alertness and concentration come, then rise to a flow state of focused awareness.
Full track is available at http://aubreymarcus.com/binaural-beats/
A continuous river of flowing vocal chants, copper Indian bell, and subtly pulsing streams of white noise create the sound world in which these finely tuned frequencies move between Alpha and Theta ranges. The transforming frequencies throughout this track summon a peaceful and vital mind, release of fear, and out of body awareness.
Full track is available at http://aubreymarcus.com/binaural-beats/
This track features a collection of Tibetan singing bowls, the sound of Texas rain, and electronic frequencies. The constantly evolving and complexly layered array of frequencies morph between Theta and Schumann resonance, invoking a sense of well being,balance, awakening of the crown chakra, and liberation.
Full track is available at http://aubreymarcus.com/binaural-beats/
The narrative of complex and subtle frequencies featured here slowly move between the Theta and Delta ranges. The unique blend of harmonic frequencies induce serotonin release, sexual resonance, skin sensations, and heart opening. A steady flow of Texas rain guards against outside noises and cleans the stage for the beating frequencies.
