At long last it is here- Shulman's much awaited fourth album- "Endless Rhythms of the Beatless Heart"! After establishing themselves as a leading group in the downtempo electronica world and defying genre definitions, the Shulman duo take the next step and deliver an album, which we at Aleph Zero feel we can honestly say is going to revolutionize the electronic music world.

Plus, here are some quotes from the reviews on the album:

"[A] lush and beautiful soundscape that combines the rich natural sounds of traditional Semitic instruments with pure synthesis. Every second implants the listener with images of the most amazing natural wonders and emotions, enveloping them in an aural paradise. The disparate elements of the songs merge so seamlessly that you're left without question that the composers are true musical masters. ..Endless Rhythms of the Beatless Heart is what every ambient lover dreams of, with all of the emotion and intensity intact. ..It's the very soul of ambience, the musical embodiment of serenity and utter bliss." 5/5 stars - Ethnotechno.com

"The true measure of Shulman's success with Endless Rhythms of the Beatless Heart [is] in that he's synthesized the global experiences of the last thirty years into an endlessly evolving mix that ignores all borders. This is the soundtrack of the global citizen. " - Igloo Magazine (USA)

"Once again Shulman and Aleph Zero deliver more than what the expectative demanded. I have listened to this album many times, and still this attempt to review it seems quit poor compared to the complexity of the music presented here. Respect!... Definitely one of the must have releases of the year, something that I will still be listening to 10 years from now." - www.isratrance.com (Israel)

"Endless Rhythms Of The Beatless Heart" is [like a] beautiful eclectic collection of flowers picked up from the meadow called the art of the music and... proudly presented to us by Omri Harpaz and Yaniv Shulman." 5/5 stars. - psybient.net (Poland)

"..arguably [Shulman's] most accomplished album to date... New listeners & fans of Shulman alike will not be disappointed." - BPM Magazine (South Africa)

"Shulman is back with more spaced-out big beats over which sounds of fracturing crystals and mournful laser beams sum up our surreal, deep and harmonious lives. ...Give yourself a... treat and pick up this album."- Haight Ashbury Beat (USA)

“All this fusion created one of the most interesting albums made here.” - Layla Magazine (Israel)
