With his ''One-Man-Jam'', Mr. Shirazy blends his original tracks made of electronic beats with live instruments like Guembry and Trumpet, his vocals and countless samples. 

He creates a whole universe of loops and global sounds -from the heart of the desert over to the soothing drones of Jupiter and Venus- and takes his audience into an unforgettable trip to outta space!

„Duality“ is the first single from a series of songs i wrote during the lockdown at the heart of the desert.
It is about the dichtonoms of life and death, love and hate, proximity and distance. Brought to you by Om Shira from the heart of the desert and with deep message of connection and healing.

Om Shira - Duality (Desert´s Silence Version)

If you feel overwhelmed by recent events these days, our new song „The Inner Child“ is written for you!

We all go in life through challenging times now and then and sometimes we forget about this soft voice inside, which needs love and compassion. Forgetting about that the inner child is the only one listening to you, when you are at your most lonely moments as well flying with you, when you are connected to your powercore! 

May it let your inner child shine and fly!

Om Shira - The Inner Child

We are delighted to share with you our 2nd track from the heart of the desert.

This story is based on true events. Created & recorded during a night session in the depth of the Mesr Desert with my fellow artist friend Mohammad Azari, we went back to the origin of SPACE CARAVAN a few weeks later to make the video.
Meanwhile it was getting really hot already early in the morning and we to work in two shifts to spare the hottest hours of the day.

Space Caravan

Sitting for 3 months in the absolute silence of the desert, the "whispers of the soul" have been audible to me like never before. Back in Germany i called our fellow member of The Exile Orchestra, Jazz Prof. Ryan Carniaux and told him how his sound has been on my mind there! 
We arranged spontaniously a recording session for the next day. I created this track in just 5 hours over night. He came, listened just once and eventually just played one take. This is it!

Om Shira - Whispers Of The Soul

HEAL is a multidimensional hologram, revealing different facets of ourselves with each ray of light. 
It's medicine for your inner voice for healing in an increasingly complex world. A song as universal as the need for true love, reflecting not necessarily what one desires, but what one truly needs. 

A breathtaking video is once again part of this artwork, taking you on a trip into the deepest valleys in your heart. Check out our Youtube channel for more.
