Lost Canyons by Scott August is an exceptional album that takes the listener on a captivating journey through the canyons of the American Southwest. The album features a blend of Native American flute, percussion, and ambient soundscapes that transport the listener to a place of serenity and tranquility.
The opening track, "Canyon Ritual," sets the tone for the album with its haunting flute melody and sparse percussion. The listener can almost feel the cool breeze blowing through the canyon as they listen to this track. "Echoes in the Canyon" is another standout track, featuring a beautiful flute melody that echoes off the canyon walls.
Scott August's talent as a musician and composer is evident throughout Lost Canyons. His use of ambient sounds, such as the sound of water flowing through a creek, adds to the overall atmosphere of the album. The percussion on tracks like "Canyon Shadows" and "Canyon Spirits" is subtle but effective, adding depth and texture to the music.
