Karma (Delerium album)

1

Karma is the ninth studio album by Canadian industrial/electronic music group Delerium. Guest musicians on the album include Sarah McLachlan ("Silence"), Lisa Gerrard ("Forgotten Worlds"), Kristy Thirsk ("Enchanted", "Lamentation", "Wisdom", "'Til The End Of Time"), Jacqui Hunt ("Euphoria (Firefly)"), Greg Reely, and Camille Henderson ("Duende"). The album took around a year to record and assemble. Gregorian chants were recorded especially for the project; according to Bill Leeb, it was less expensive to hire a 30-piece choir, rent a West-Vancouver church, move the equipment and record the chants live than to pay for the rights to sample existing recordings. The duo's collaboration with McLachlan, "Silence", became the band's biggest hit single. The song "Window to Your Soul" is featured in season four of Buffy the Vampire Slayer in episode 13 "The I in Team". The song "Remembrance" is featured in the beginning of the episode "Love Kills". In season 3 of the show "The sentinel".

Critical reception

According to John Chedsey of Satan Stole My Teddybear, the electronic sounds on Karma are "airy, slightly cosmic and soothing", the vocals are light and soaring, and the album is "a very pleasant, unobtrusive listen". Octavia of magazine Outburn called the album "an impressive combination of technological manipulation and human touch that will bring you a moody and complex energy".
