“Medicinal Value” immerses listeners in the emerging global phenomenon of medicine music — songs that harness the healing power of sound while celebrating our connection to Earth. We begin with River’s elemental invocation before exploring multilingual offerings from across continents: Italian duo Kris-Mā & Lord Caboclo singing in Portuguese to honor Earth spirit, Mexican artist Ramiro Orrantia’s Spanish ode to plant consciousness, and Australian Murray Kyle’s water protection anthem remixed by an American producer. The journey deepens with Argentine-American Caro Pampillo’s mantra-like chants, Philadelphia-based Ayahumans singing in Portuguese, and Californian Jens Jarvie’s heartfelt Pachamama devotional. The hour concludes with Sāmi Brothers’ “All Our Relations,” demonstrating a lineage rooted in indigenous wisdom yet flowering globally through cross-cultural exchange. These compositions function as sonic medicine intended to restore both personal and planetary well-being.
