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 tribal 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.


We've roamed the wild country
My beautiful yellow eyes
Side by side we've hunted
Shadows dancing on northern skies

There have been times of plenty
We were content and serene
Peacefully sleeping
Dangers few and far between

We've also known much hunger
Ribs protruding from each side
Mournfully we howled
When our starving cubs had died

And then there was our first winter
Romping through the glistening snow
Tasting each crystal snowflake
Falling gently to and fro

Ah my dear, sweet yellow eyes
I've known no greater love
Without you I am nothing
Our wild souls are one

And now you lay there dying
Steel jaws upon your frame
Life's blood slowly seeping
I whisper your sweet name

Helpless, I watch you struggle
Chest heaving with labored breath
Steel jaws clenching tighter
Winds whisper the song death

The blood has now stopped flowing
I know the time is near
And you will forever leave me
My love, my life, my dear

And now my world is silent
Your struggles now have ceased
I lay my head upon you
And now you are at peace

Perhaps your soul has lifted
To skies where eagles soar,
And there you'll greet your brothers
To run with them forever more

And someday I shall find you
In the heaven's so far above
And when our wild soul's unite
They'll be no greater love
