I find it very inspiring that so many musicians have discovered the New Age genre as a medium to express their musical diversity.  New Age music is fast becoming ever more popular every day, compelling by offering musicians a unique category to display their music wares in a sub genre format.

Paul Jensen is one artist who divulges into the Contemporary Folk category style of Easy Listening.  His thoughtful lyric verses are pleasing to the ear and are perfect for times of contemplation, placing oneself in a relaxing carefree mood, or for pure enjoyment.

The Other Side album from 2008 on the Juan Carlos Production label that debuted at #4 on NAR’s music charts is a great choice indeed.  It is just right for those times set aside to self indulge in relaxing time spent alone, with a loved one, or with close friends and family who also appreciate the lighter side of Easy Listening pleasures.

Paul discovered an inspiration from the natural wonders of the earth and is apparent that it greatly influences his personal style of singing and songwriting.  Much of the creativity behind his work is drawn from adventurous time spent in the Colorado National Monument in the U.S.  This scenic National Park has land set aside for everyone to discover the natural wonders through hiking, horseback, and by adventure filled wilderness trails.  This opportunity gives people like Paul a chance to explore and grasp the sought after inspiration required for delivering his compelling Contemporary Instrumental Folk music.

Contributing artists furnish their own professional skills, including Grammy Award winning Will Ackerman, who lends a hand playing guitar, and his accomplished touch in producing this back to nature inspired album.

The 12 songs do emphasize much of what there is to explore in the vast wilderness full of wildlife and natural beauty, validating a more contemplative approach to music that I found apparent in his pioneer style.  Besides the beautiful vocals, guitars provide much of the richness, plus additional distinction is added by the warm characteristics of orchestra instruments.  The cultured sounds of horn, cello, violin, piano and mandolin, diversity into a classic touch that strengthens the harmonious beauty of music in relation to our earth’s natural wonders, both of which are waiting for you to discover.
