• Zacatecoluca - 2011

music-magazine: GoodTimes  » Unusual, bold, interesting and innovative «

Payuta is considered one of Germany's best Sitar players - he demonstrates on his ninth album. All tracks literally vibrate and the Sitar-melodies are homogeneously integrated into western Rock-sounds and grooves.
Harry Payuta is at least remarkable and his music grabs the listener. Unusual as bold, interesting and innovative.     more
• Departure - 2007

Global Mojo  »The sitar opens as if it was to become a song for the Beatles-Album ''Rubber Soul''

But it won’t, because Harry Payuta, in business since Amon Düül, is not only a god-gifted multi-instrumentalist but also sparkles with ideas of his own.
So he created a whole string of real catchy melodies with Matthias Monka’s somewhat soulful vocals ...     more
• Sitar Journeys - 2005

Traumzeit  »Relaxed, sensitive, exciting & surprising«

»Sitar Journeys« is a consequential trip. The cosmic shaman Payuta has produced a brillant and alluring CD.
Like a maelstrom the songs involves deeper and deeper into sense, trance, relaxation. Smooth trance-rhythms pulsates and let you flow through unknown galaxies. ...     more
• india redhot blue - 2004

Global Mojo  »The grandson of Sgt. Pepper«

10 compositions between US-Folkrock, British Psychedelia and those three years of Popmusic (1967-69), when even the ROLLING STONES used the Sitar.
There's nothing else like it in the world - this blend of Indian ragas, jazz, ambient, trance and shamanic elements, Harry Payuta's special brand of Worldbeat - Music ...     more
• Sitar Signs - 2003

Weser Kurier  »INDOGERMAN-SITAR-GROOVE«

A CD full of Sitar-Sounds far away from indian classic. The music moves between Trance-Grooves and Worldmusic and makes also trips to Latin America.
But because of the Sitar as lead-instrument all tracks are sounding very indian. ...     more
• Sitar Movements - 2003

Traumzeit  »Inner Visions & Trance´n´Dance«

The Sitar flows here refined into a general musical concept, with gentle percussion and even Trance-Grooves.
It maintains the tradition of Harry Payuta classical Indian instrument and covers the whole range of the finest Blues & Chillout Music . ...     more
• Didge News - 2001

ixthuluh  »high energy power trance rhythms & and sensitive dream trances«

PAYUTA & Friends are spectacular in realizing the historical sound-world into High-Energy-Trance-Rhythms but also to sensual moments.
In a fulminant way Payuta brings together the incomparable sound of the Didgeridoo with traditional acoustic and electrified instruments ...     more
• Stratos - 2000

Weser Kurier  »Slow Food for the mind«

The Didgeridoo brings native sounds from Australia, the Sitar the atmosphere of India.
But it´s not the real Ethno-World, what the sounds mean. The CD »Stratostrance« is more a quiet stream of sounds somewhere between Ambient, Chill-Out and Trance ...     more
• Soft Fall - 2000

Weser Kurier  »shamanic trance-rhythms - baroque & indian influences«

besides Harry Payuta are the overtone-singer Johannes Künzler and baroque-harp player Bettina Erragihi.
Thereby the 54-minute trip is very exciting: dialogs between sitar and harp are besides overtone - didgeridoo contacts ...     more
