Jaya Shiva

Throughout human history and across most native traditions, constant repetitive rhythms and the steady drone of chanting have carried shamans and other spiritual seekers into other dimensions in ecstatic trance. Even today, this music, as ancient as the rocks and wind, provides sacred transport to higher states of well being and bliss. Attaining the Shante Ishta is the goal of this journey. This is the “single eye of the heart," the third eye or wisdom eye of the ancients--the shaman's eye. It is the place where the individual soul attunes to the collective, universal heartbeat that unites us all.

Shaman's Eye brims with multi-layered currents of sound and chanting woven around a steady stream of theta rhythms. These provocative rhythms are designed to tap into our own ancestral depths and call us into the secret worlds of trance. Each of these musical landscapes is alive with its own distinctive spirit energy. As they carry us forward they become the vehicle for our journeys.

In the true spirit of musical alchemy, Amani Friend blends his technical skills with his innate understanding of the power of sound and vibration to heal and transform. With deep reverence, he weaves the strands of pan-global percussive and melodic expressions, sacred chants, and the atmospheres of nature around the steady heartbeat of trance to inspire inner journeys.

Dharum & Helder Pizzicato - In Heart is Gold

alquimia

Dedicated to the One Heart of all Creation, an invocation of remembrance, I created this song in deep communion with the Divine Feminine, a very loving and strong Mother Goddess energy, that came through me, and left me forever changed.  This had been the first time in 5 years I had even used my voice, and I wasn't even planning on recording vocals when I went into the session, it just came through me all in one night, and launched the Cosmic Sutras...

Vocals & Production by Imagika Om in collaboration with the Universal Divine Feminine.

Now on "Cosmic Sutras" on Merkaba Music!

  Imagika has loved music & dance since she can remember, beginning her relationship with music as a dance performer & performance ritual producer in 1999.  Prompted by the desire to create a new way to dance & relate to music that was different than what was being played at the time, she created something that didn’t exist - remixing & producing music for her performances to further customize the experience.  Her reality expanded to producing & performing with groups such as Lucent Dossier, Dream Circus, Ayaserpent, Auracle, & Urban Gypsy.   She co-produced the score for "Isis Vision" with the Human Experience for a half hour multi-media performance at Burning Man at the Temple.  She also co-produced "Maat Magic" for Lucent Dossier Experience's performance at Coachella's main stage, & produced "Breathe your Dreams to Life" which was performed by Lucent Dossier for the Dali Lama's 80th birthday celebration with an audience of 10,000 people. 



She delighted downtown LA as resident DJ at the famed Edison for the Lucent Dossier's nights, that drew celebrities like Johnny Depp, & Scarlett Johansson & attracted underground artists alike, creating & curating exotic & surreal musical soundtracks for 2 years every week.  With Lucent Dossier, she also brought her passion to venues ranging from the Liberty Theatre in NYC's Times Square, to a Venetian Palace on the Grand Canal in Italy for Elon Musk for his 40th birthday, & tech luminaries like Sundar Pichai.  



Her performance background is reflected in her musical style, & is heard in her ability to create compelling, unique, atmospheric soundscapes for performances, environments,  & special events.  



She released her classic "Cosmic Sutras" album through Merkaba Music, bringing forth tracks that are both earthy & ethereal, filled with primal beats & bass, mystical mantras, & atmospheric layers sparking cosmic remembrance. 



Over the years, she has also explored other genres with her own unique style, such as bellydance beats, latin grooves, & Goddess pop in her singles. She continues to dive deep, exploring new sounds in her current works in progress & live improvisations.
