Mantra Hop is an initiative focused on positive mantra singing mixed with movement and dance from electronic low-fi beats, sub bass and live instrumentation such as Shivam’s signature 22 string Crystal Slide Guitar, tabla, Shakuhachi flute and more.

After three years of full time study under a scholarship at SAE media institute during Covid lockdowns world wide, Shivam Rath has reinvented a new style of sacred mantra music blending his Indian Classical training and signature Crystal Slide with electronic music production. Hence the birthing of the new album Mantra Hop.
This is an initiative focused on group mantra singing mixed with movement and dance from electronic low-fi beats, sub bass and live instrumental looping based on Indian Classical Music, creating a dynamic journey from subtle ceremonial silence, lush atmospheric sound scapes to upbeat dance music, mantra singing, live instrumentation and then returning back to the meditational space.

Chowa Wa Heiwa ~ ShivamRath

A Masterful Trio featuring Grand Master Riley Lee on the Shakuhachi, Shivam Rath on the Indian Slide Guitar and Maharshi Raval's Tabla leading the percussion. While based on an Indian Classical formula a slow carefully structured arrangement of phrasing within the  chosen Raga/ scale balances the melodic component with constant improvisation.

Shaku Shakti

This final track of the Shaku Shakti Trio was created with a little more “structure” following a melodic hook like base line with the slide guitar throughout various sections of the composition creating an instrumental verse so to speak with a chorus like section and spaces for particular solo emphasis. 
The Rhythm is set in a slow 3/4 time signature however speeds up towards the last section of the song and shifts briefly back to a 4/4 before returning to the 3/4 conclusion.

The funny Indian Classical Music Joke is ~ Bupali Raga has neither Ma ~ or Ni (the Swara or major notes of the scale) Purely because of this comical irony many indian classical musicians say that during non - paid gigs its a good time to play Bhupali or Bupali because there is no "Ma - Ni ~ Mo-ney " in which to get paid. Hence Down the Track ~ Shivam Rath during the 2018 Navaratri Sadhana was choosing specific Ragas in relation to the Devi - Goddess invoked during those 9 days of different goddess worship. Simply because of the irony and there not being any specific Raga indicated to Laxmi Shivam decided to play with that joke in praise Laxmi in relation to abundance of a non-material nature ;) For what is true abundance ?
