Recently in West Wales a small group has been exploring the relationship between shamanic songs and the role of the oracle. These sessions involves one person singing and drumming improvised 'spirit calling songs' which 'open the doors of vision' for another person who, acting as the oracle answers a hidden question asked by a third person.

Often the singer in these sessions has been Nicholas Breeze Wood, who has produced a CD for members of the group to use on their own. He is now making this available so that others can explore the technique.

The CD contains four dreaming songs followed by periods of shamanic drumming for the dreaming - each around 18 minutes in length - and full instructions in the oracle process.
