Release Text:

Earthday:
When Jakob finally woke up, he felt the shift in his consciousness and was so grateful for this powerful experience. He decided it would be best to go outside and hike through nature to appreciate the deep connection he was feeling. Jakob discovered a beautiful spot under a big tree beside a small creek. He laid down and felt Mother Earth under his body. After a while, the vibration of the place took over his whole being. Jakob sank into the magic of this space so far, that he touched the consciousness of Pachamama…

Frank Fable - Earth Day

Remembrance Soundscapes is the music only version of the transformational album and guide for embodiment, Remembrance. A one of a kind collaboration between five artists, including Vylana, Aubrey Marcus, Poranguí, Amani Friend (Liquid Bloom), and Eric Zang.  Remembrance Soundscapes presents these powerful offerings in their purely musical form for listeners to experience without any guidance.  With five transformational soundtracks, this album serves as a guide to support the awakening of humanity to the sacred instrument of the human body. Through the technology of ancient and modern sound design and resonant intentionality, the listener embarks on a journey through various states of consciousness to meet themselves at a deeper level. By moving energy through breath, dance, and meditation, the listener may better remember their purpose— empowering them to be of greater service, for the good of all. 

The concept of the Remembrance albums and the creation of the band, For the Good of All, is the fruition of a prayer planted as a seed over a decade past. Poranguí knew then that music would be created with Aubrey’s spoken word poetry.  Stepping into the sacred role as producer, Poranguí called in some of his favorite collaborators: Amani Friend of Liquid Bloom, whose extensive experience producing electronic music graces the album, and Eric Zang, a masterful multi-instrumentalist and mixing engineer who along with Vylana Marcus’s celestial vocals helped finish this all-star ensemble.   Special featured artists include East Forest on piano and Indrajit Roy-Chowdhury on sitar to complement this rich sonic journey. 

The Soundscapes version of the album offers a lush musical bed for listeners, inspired by many cultures, including musical influence from Vylana’s Ploynisian heritage as well as the Hindu tradition’s use of prayer, breath, dance, meditation, and service. The track titles have been named in honor of these ancient traditions. These embodiment practices are inherent to us all and by going on this journey, the listener can be in clear Remembrance, For the Good of All.

Remembrance Soundscapes

Prana - Soundscape Mix

Originally written during the Standing Rock Occupation against the DAPL pipeline, Poranguí’s lyrics speak to the mysterious healing power of love that arises even in the face of the ongoing genocide and war waged upon our indigenous relatives by the US Government and transnational corporations largely unseen to most of the world still today.  Against a backdrop of blazing Brazilian maracatu percussion and aboriginal didgeridoo, the song invokes the sacred responsibility we all carry as two-leggeds with the gift of these incredible hands capable of creating unimaginable beauty or total destruction.  Standing rooted as warriors of unflinching love, we are reminded that even in the face of impossible odds, stewarding all of life is the only way forward, for we are “mending the hoop and restoring the love.”

SavaBorsa brings a twisted hypnotic version of Camino Rojo del Corazón's @caminorojo amazing hungarian language song "Csattogó" featuring Adri. All the words in the lyrics starts with a toungbreaker "CS" letter what is very common in hungarian and east europen languages but not really in the west. The rework is a dancefloor focused track but still keeping the original's ceremonical vibe. Original will be released also on our Beauteous Beats label soon.. Enjoy!
Magyarul:
Camino Rojo Del Corazón @caminorojo projektnév mögött álló Sajti ceremonialista dalai már jóideje figyelmet kapnak soundcloud oldalukon. “Csattogó” c. daluk - amiben Adri viszi a prímet a feminin ének fronton - különlegessége a “cs” -vel kezdődő szavakból álló kedves természetközeli dalszöveg, ami minden kishazánk vad élővilágát szerető emberének szívét rabul ejti. A SavaBorsa formáció friss újraértelezése hipnotikusan csavart egyet a dalon, közelebb hozva azt a nyári mezitlábas kakaó táncokhoz tűz körül sámándobokkal erősítve a hangulatot. Az erdeti dal egy kis keverés és mastering után hamarosan napvilágot lát a SavaBorsa Beateous Beats kiadóján, addig is élvezzétek ezt az elektronikus veziót. Áldás!
Lyrics/Dalszöveg:
Csalitban csicsergő csattogás
Csörgedező csermely csobogás
Csonka cserfán csúf csóka cserreg
Cserkészfiúk csapata cseveg
Csokrot csinálunk csillagvirágból
Csípéseket csalunk csalánból
Csiga csöndben csúszik csicsóka csúcsára
Csipkés cserlevél, cserebogár csápja

If you are inspired by this story, please consider learning about what organization or individuals are protecting the ocean (and all that lives within it) in your region, and explore what ways you can express your love for this world, our ocean, and these incredible beings. 

[excerpt of story]
They say there are people
walking among us
who once lived in an ocean of water
and swam through an ocean of consciousness
as if ocean, and body, and universe, were all the same thing.

These oceanic beings-- let us call them whale, were connected 
To the cloud beings whose tears watered Earth
To the rooted ones, whose hearts healed Earth
And to the land walkers, who sang, chanted, and spoke Earth into being. 

And once upon a time
those ocean beings
and land walkers
were kindreds. 

as the most ancient story of the universe lived through them
It is that story that brings us together tonight 
a story about 
giving
and receiving. 

In this ancient story …
When the land walkers asked for a life
The whale beings gave a life

A when gratitude was offered…
A pathway between body and spirit was forged 
An exchange was made

As The spirit of the whale 
was invited to live through the body of the land walkers, 

in this way
Even death 
led to more life 

This was not written down. 
There was no signing of a contract. 
It was just known. 
Until one day… it wasn’t


The agreement was broken.  


And 
When this ancient law of the universe 
Of asking, giving, receiving, gratitude 
-- was broken

A curse was cast on the land walkers:

The more they took, 
the hungrier they get. 

They say that is when Greed was born. 
But that is another story. 

In this story—
Some of those whale beings, 
Decided they weren’t going to join the death march led by Killing and Greed that was slaughtering their aunts and uncles, murdering their mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers. 

They were going to make good on the ancient agreement between their ancestors 
So they decided to leave their oceanic world 
So they could walk again on earth through the bodies of the descendants of those ancestors. 

Because they would need to walk among the two leggeds
to put an end to those who were interrupting the flow of life.


But the old ones warned them: 
you can’t kill the being that is killing 
and get to the source 
of what is living through them.  

When you Get to the source of their anguish
you will get to the source of what is causing the disruption of life –
THAT is what you must hunt down

And the elders warned them
It is dangerous going from one world to another: 
There is the risk of forgetting who and what you are in the process

And then they warned them: 
You can’t rush to show the truth of who and what you really are
you must be patient and wait

Because the disruption you will face has become very powerful
And there is strength in numbers and you will need others to protect you. 
They youngers whales thanked the elders for their warnings

Because you see, (the elders explained) 

you are not alone on this mission
There will be others 
The fairy folk will join you: they have a bone or two to pick with those takers
And the elphan will be there, cleverly disguised, no longer willing to be stepped on or over. 
The plant deities will start speaking through the voices of humans
The mer people will rise and walk among you
And the dragons will fly again

Look for the signs 
for when Earth recognizes that enough of you have made it through, 
She will shake awake all who are still forgetting

Now of course there is no guarantee 
how long it will take
or that everyone will arrive
or .. that you will make it out alive.


........
And you look into the eyes of elders
And you listen 
before you speak
you are loved
You have always been loved
And you will always be love.

When We Were Whales

Berlin-based Soneiro Collective and Temple Haze reconnects you to a sense of coherence to the medicines that surround us and grow in attunement to the pulse of the earth. It creates a safe space to tap into this field of merging with whatever is the medicine of your choice. Maybe it is the song itself? The two versions of "Me Entrego" are the first part of the EP and were just released on Pura Danza.

“Fluye” carries you into a space of embodied connectedness. It’s about moving with the elements and being moved by them. To remember. To reconnect.  And to reconcile. It’s an invitation to hand yourself over to the elements and let them carry your dreams as you are carried by them.  

Binder's remix beautifully translates this song into a downbeat version that wants to make you wanna move your body gently to this high-vibrational piece of music. 

@alisa_reimer and @templehaze from Soneiro Collective are the creators behind these two songs. They have found Soneiro Collective to grow into an evolving project with a vision of personal growth, collective awareness and the drive to create sustainable experiences through combining elements of sound, music, meditation and yoga.

Soneiro - Fluye (Binder Remix)

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.

These 11 tracks were born from a prayer to bridge worlds from the consciousness of the master plant medicine onto the dance floor.

Each song weaves the medicine of the original, while beckoning listeners to explore and express their prayers or meditations through embodied movement. Allow yourself to be moved -para el bien de todos.
