Alain Eskinasi has a long discography of intriguing, unique music across trance, ambient and techno. His music has undergone constant evolution and currently he is more involved in dance music, as you can perceive at his myspace page:

His 1997 release, "Chakradancer" under the name BRAINSCAPES, remains a stunning work of spiritual resonance that has few if any peers. The compositions are arranged according to the seven chakras [bioenergy centers] of the human spiritual system, in ascending order. This 7th track resonates the cranium, particularly the soft spot at the top.

All the Brainscapes albums are fine works of Visionary Art. The self-titled 1996 debut album accentuates the use of didgeridoo to attune shamanic states of consciousness. Of all my didgeridoo albums, this is the one i would choose to introduce it to a westerner who had never heard it before. "Brainscapes 2001" (released 2000) is an experiment in various styles of techno. While quite good, it does rather need the listener to be able to enjoy techno in order to settle in. I found myself liking it increasingly on repeated listen. The recent 2009 "Sacred Spaces - Music For Reiki" is an imminently listenable sonic journey using Native American & Tibetan style flute, chimes & bells plus brainwave hemisync frequencies. It is intended as a therapeutic sound tool, but is well suited to any imaginal explorations one might want to conduct in a super dreamy environment. It is closest to Chakradancer in its cosmic nature.
The BRAINSCAPES albums by Alain Eskinasi are a fine series of Visionary Sound Art well worth studying. He truly has an impressive, intuitive way of using sound to guide the listener into higher awareness and health.
This video is presented as an educational service to the viewer, so that you may know that healing sounds like these are being processed and are available for furthering wellness, personal development and insight into one's vibratory condition.
Thank you for the beautiful visualizations! I totally agree with your assessment of Chakradancer as being one of the seminal aural creations of human spirituality. Transcendent stuff!
