Shushupe presents field recordings by Ralph Koper primarily pertaining to an ayahuasca ceremony which took place on February 8th, 2006 in Iquitos, Peru conducted by Norma Aguila Panduro Navarro (1944 - 2007) who was one of the very few female ayahuasca shamans in the world. This release mostly focuses on Norma Panduro's ceremonial music and the sounds of the surrounding jungle. Norma's apprentice at the time, Paula Liebe joined with the singing of one or two ceremonial icaros.
