Merging Croatian traditional music with modern psychedelic chill/dub/glitch, "Horns of Veles" compilation guides us through different centuries and regions of Croatia via sound and ambience. For this unique occasion, local artists who have a way of building pathways throughout webs of time are carefully selected. They expressed that sweet spot of connection between traditional and modern through a visionary re-envisioning of ancient songs, sung just for this compilation.

Veles is a major Slavic god of earth, waters, livestock and the underworld. His attributes are wet, wooly, hairy (bearded), dark and with horns. He is associated with cattle, the harvest, wealth, music, magic, and trickery. He has a role in the carnival customs of Koledari shamans and as protector of travelling musicians. In some wedding ceremonies in northern Croatia, the music would not start playing unless the bridegroom, when making a toast, spilled some of the wine on the ground. The symbolism of this is clear: the musicians will not sing until a toast is made to their patron deity.

Dive into the immersive world of "Prayers To The Flame," a musical tapestry that pays tribute to the primal element of Fire. This track, deeply infused with dub-style elements, draws inspiration from the enchanting vibrations of the Middle East, while skillfully capturing the dynamic and transformative nature of Fire itself.

As you listen, the crackling of flames takes center stage, intertwining with the rhythmic mastery of "Jason O'Keefe." With the Udu and Frame drums, O'Keefe orchestrates a captivating cadence that drives the energy forward, inviting dancers to surrender to the pulse of Fire itself.

Adding an ethereal dimension, "Eric Zang" weaves the mesmerizing melodies of the Kaval Flute, evoking the timeless tunes of the Middle East. These sonic tales infuse the composition with a cultural tapestry, painting a vivid sonic landscape that resonates deep within.

"Prayers To The Flame" guides the listener through symbolic stages, from the construction of the fire to the unrestrained culmination of the blaze. Here, "Chris Berry" enters the stage with a percussive revelation – his beatboxing becomes the vocal expression of rhythm, intertwining seamlessly with the music's heartbeat.

Throughout the track, a narrative thread weaves a tapestry of storytelling that transports us to ancient gatherings around a fire, where humanity's primal connections are rekindled. The music conjures an imagery of shared stories, shared experiences, and shared roots. It's a celebration of Fire's raw power, a bridge between cultures, and an exploration of the timeless connection that humans have shared around the warmth of a flickering fire.

“Prayers to the Flame” is the 6th track from the coming album called “Home” a collaborative project between Shaman’s Dream and Geometrae, featuring multi-instrumentalists, vocalists, and cutting edge electronic production.

The story is told through the intention of each song, and woven together for the listener to observe each element through the body as a felt experience.

The album begins with the sunrise, as each day begins for us here. The seed is then planted with intentions to grow and flourish, to reach the highest potential as a blooming flower. The 5 elements are explored: Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Ether. The 5 elements are needs to transform the seed into a flower, for the fullest expression to be witnessed. Once the flower has bloomed, we welcome the moon, to tap into our psychic senses and merge into the dream world once again, to begin the cycle renewed, to return Home.

FUNK DE FREEDOM

Into The Web [ Into The Web EP-Dubmission Records]

A project unlike any other comes to Desert Trax this fall. Between 2009 and 2012, psychedelic bass producer Twin Shape created but left unfinished three songs that tied him inextricably to a certain time and place. As the years went on, these pieces remained rough and untouched, until he sought the help of three fellow producers to help him complete these songs.
The result is the 'Auxiliatus' EP. From the Latin to support, Alterra, Shwamp , and COAM stepped in to give Twin Shape distance, perspective, and help to revisit these original creations and give them a contemporary feel on Seeded, D&N and Glimpse, respectively. Three tightly wound compositions that have spanned nearly a decade since their inception now come to life with throbbing low end and alien implications. A strong recommendation for fans of Bird of Prey, Phutureprimitive, and Ott.

Standout Desert Trax contributor Key-G steps in for a remix of the Alterra collab, Seeded, to round out this 4-track set. The Auxiliatus EP is finally available September 13th.

***Mystical ancient sounds with deep bass following the heart beats***

Indra is an international DJane and Ecstatic dance Croatia founder, active in music from 2002. She plays at various events promoting alternative/psy culture as well as at the international radio stations. Today she is resident at Mo:Dem, one of the best underground psychedelic festivals in Europe and line up adviser for many festivals and events.

Indra's first serious excursion into world of music was 2002. when she edited music program and hosted the radio project "Baraka", world music show. As a part of DJ's and promoters gathered around the Baraka Collective, she organized and acted at various ethnic-world, dub, downbeat events. From 2002. she started playing psychill. She is one of the residents and organizers of Chillibar events, most popular psychill events in Croatia.

In November 2014. she compiled VA Forest Garden, including her favorite artists, most of them also involved in gardening and natural way of living. The compilation symbolizes life cycle, transformation of the mankind and the Earth. It is a call for a waking up and going back to the roots values and sustainable way of living. In 2019. her second compilation "Spiral Roots" was released, bringing us on a path of organic bridge created between the roots of the Earth and our existence. "Tribal Steps" compilations were inspired by ecstatic dance and tribes gathering with variety of sounds and tempos, inviting for more gatherings like in ancient times.  Last compilation "Horns of Veles" is a fusion of Croatian traditional music with modern psychedelic chill music.

Indra's sound is a fusion of floating mystical atmospheres and deep dub bass lines with ethnic & organic elements, including conscious bass, psydub, tribal, shamanic, global bass and other downtempo to midtempo styles.

Her music is inspired by nature, spirituality, and ancient traditions, often incorporating live instruments like trumpet, didgeridoo, and percussion to create immersive, story-driven sets. Indra’s performances radiate feminine subtlety, positive energy, and a deep connection with her audience.
