Ah Nee Mah is a side project of prolific producers David and Diane Arkenstone, who explore the sounds of the Native Southwest within the context of mellow ambient atmospheres. Their first few albums under the moniker proved to be pleasant, earthy affairs, conjuring up visions of canyons and dusty plateaus; ANCIENT VISIONS continues down that same road. The Arkenstones' mutual flair for semi-dramatic, colorful melodies is evident on each of the album's nine tracks, often featuring Native flute in the forefront while light rhythm, guitar, symphonic synths and natural sound effects (wind, animal sounds) dance in the backdrop. Each of the cuts meld together to form a cohesive whole, enveloping the listener in an hour's worth of ethereal, relaxed music flecked with the haunting sounds of America's indigenous peoples.
