After 20 years of ‘Pop Rock and Roll’ music, Jeffree ventured inward and began a meditative journey of discovery; the audible result was Butterfly. Jeffree’s first instrumental music written specifically for meditation, released in 1986.
Butterfly is a very soft and gentle composition, it is meant to relax and heal. The tempo is extremely slow and at times the structure gives way to a no tempo, “free form” motion. The primary theme is embryonic and is performed with the very delicate and fragile sound of a glass piano. The effect is very “lullabyish” and is complemented by the sound of a soft electric piano which forms the framework of the composition. As the melodies fade away the music takes on an ambient mode where restful chord washes rise and fall as they pass across the stereo spectrum. The exchange between structure and non structure comes and goes throughout the composition with the natural sounds of birds and waterfalls further enhancing an overall effect which is quite illusionary, virtually slowing down time and promoting a very deep relaxation within the listener.
Your music, particularly Butterfly helped me through a difficult and stressful time in my life. I used to listen to Butterfly to get myself to sleep.
I have lived with your music for the past five years and recently underwent fairly major surgery. I would like to thank you again from my heart for your gift of music. Both Butterfly and Songbird have been played constantly during my recovery. I am sure that their calmness has contributed to my recovery. They have kept me company – especially around the times when I have not felt very good.
So relaxing. Truly beautiful music. I have ordered it again for a friend.
Best relaxing healing CD ever! I knew about this cd before...I had it on tape and for years it has been one of my favorites when I feel off and need some TLC and healing it is the absolute best. I highly recommend this album.
Beautiful, peaceful, soothing. I used to have this piece on tape many years ago, which I meditated to, but unfortunately lost it, am so pleased to have it again. Thank you, would highly recommend it.
Beautiful and relaxing. Great for meditating! My favorite of all time. I lost my original - glad I was able to find it again!!
I am living overseas for a while. Before I left New Zealand I bought 3 of your New Age tapes, and I just had to write to you and thank you for bringing this very beautiful and special music to our planet – it feels New Zealand, home to me. Butterfly in particular touches me so deeply I’ve cried each time I’ve heard it. Thank you.
Keep on with whatever you feel in this work, it is special.
A beautiful gift from our Creator.
Love & light to you
