Shankara NZ launch their return to the Shanti Planti space station to
broadcast their new release; Transmission. Radiating other-worldly
signals from the limbo of space, Transmission assumes the state of
weightlessness in the vast vacuum between worlds—severing the tether
to terrestrial boundaries.

Coded with sub-frequency and apparitions of psychedelia, Transmission
is rooted in earthly dub cadence while it’s tendrils reach towards the
borders of territories unknown. Scattered with visions of foreign
forms and taunted by memories of sapien life; Shankara NZ serves to
intoxicate the listener with the unique phenomenon of interplanetary
drifting, all while remaining stationed within Earth’s gravitational
pull. Pack your rations wisely for this journey…

Encounter Ep - Street Ritual
http://music.streetritual.com/album/encounter

Brendan and Elijah, AKA Shankara NZ, have been making music with a passion for over a decade, experimenting with sonic creations since they first met in high school. Influenced by all things DUB, especially early dubstep, and nourished by their native environment, they produce a uniquely melodic and organic style of bass music.
Their sonic experience is constantly on the move, regularly taking in new sounds and ideas, and with releases on Shanti Planti, Dubmission, Desert Trax, Street Ritual and Adapted Records, Shankara NZ are making waves at home and abroad.
Shankara NZ's dynamic live show, either as a duo with synths, guitar and flute or just Brendan performing solo, features a sound shower of dub delay, rolling basslines, ethereal melodies and tribal energy.
