Chandra Shekar (Vinzoo Remix Feat. Zahira)

Bringing the rhythms of the natural world to the modern dance floor, Liquid Bloom and PERE unite their distinct musical backgrounds into the immersive story called ‘Afar.’ Presented in eight vivid tracks that infuse organic instruments and ancient songs with the trance-inducing energy of progressive electronica, the collection highlights each artist’s deep passion for the sounds of the world as well as their iconic approaches to musical storytelling in the digital age.

Opening the album, the journey of “Nubra” takes us through deep ambient spaces, percussive grooves, and the elegant and haunting tones of the sarangi and dotar, establishing a balance of organic and digital elements that pervades the collection. Stepping further into this hypnotic space, tracks like “Overgrown” and “Riding Through” showcase the fiery side of the album, merging acoustic instrumentation with heavier electronic themes that are primed for peak moments on the dance floor.

“Kingfisher” featuring Australian multi-instrumentalist Si Mullumby demonstrates the duo’s creative mixing of natural sounds and instruments for a walkabout into the wilderness, while “Pájaro Azul’s” uplifting balance of charango, flute, and tranquil vocals courtesy of Isla Espiral spotlights the Latin American musical influences at play in the collection. “Ufawatu” featuring African music master Chris Berry is a playful song that translates as ‘the dream of life in the sacred waters.’ Japanese vocalist Madi Sato guides the album out of the wildness with the emotional and cinematic ‘Lion Dance’ anthem that is “Azuma Jishi.”

If ‘Afar’ opens slowly, the final track, “Refuge,” ends like glowing embers of Samadhi, echoing and honoring the immense passage of emotion that has transpired through PERE and Liquid Bloom's offerings. The full effect of the duo’s musical fusion is best felt here, where the recognizable coalesces with the imaginary in a cinematic coda that displays each producer’s alchemical approach to psychedelic sound design and guides the album back into the silence from which it all emerged.

Using original recordings from the mountains of Nepal, the deserts of India and the jungles of Australia and Central America, Nango Manchay has learned and incorporated instruments from all corners of the earth to create an album the spans borders and traditional genres.

The result is the expansive album Under Our Sun which comes to Desert Trax on April 5th. From the opening hit of Varanasi Flame to the closing notes of Diambura, the Nango Manchay sound envelops and hypnotizes. The guitarist and sitar player also features on the seminal album Grouch in Dub and his lush string sound finds a home on Desert Dwellers label. The entire album is filled with gorgeous melody at each stop along the cosmic journey. Rich, pulsing midtempo breaks and more intricate downtempo and bass-centric musings are held together by the connective thread of real bowed, plucked and strummed strings.

“Under Our Sun is a tribute to the unification of humanity and the common goals of peace and understanding that is an underlying part of what makes us all human,” he notes “We are all under the same sun, we share this planet together and this album represents many cultures uniting to create music of beauty that reflects the awe and grandeur of nature, our shared home and the depths of our own consciousness.”

Mother Rose Ancient Rose, emanating from the depth of the ages... 
she's asking to be listened and felt again.
Opening up the portals of healing, through re-membering our ancestral lines. 
And the depth of our Roots, to find ourselves being placed and grounded again in our center.
The center of the center of the center, our heart, the light beyond our physical heart.

This is a present for our bodies <3 may they be loved, cared, healed& healthy, well danced and moved, shaked through, celebrated, nourished, honoured, enjoyed and may we experience the vastness of feeling inside and beyond our bodies. 
Thank you for this Beautiful gift: music - thank you for the music in my life and all around - Thank you all amazing music alchemists that created this amazing tunes!

This journey is dedicated to move and celebrate, from the depth and authentic profoundness of our beings beyond pretentions- knowing we all are light, and we all are love, and we all have some aspects of darkness to ourselves we can move& dance through, to integrate - and to be able to love even more *and more, and more...

And for the beauty of supporting one another - activism through music ! 
THIS IS SUPPORTING OUR HEART FAMILY, WISDOM KEEPERS & ELDERS - THANK YOU- in which ever way you can support:
every fund can help the Ayllu Tiqsi Muyu Community in Colombia to buy a property next to their Home- that would be used for pig farming, which would make their home uninhabitable and would contaminate the spring water and bring disease to the mountain- if they don't buy the land. Plus it will help them to generate the stability of basic living supplies in these times. Thankyou for every support <3

Support the Tubu Nation in the time of COVID-19...
...they have been expelled form their native lands some months ago, one of many times. Now living in Bogota, it is hard for the 25 Families being separated and living in a City, not knowing how and when they can be fully living together again. Their income is their Artesania and healing service, which they can't sell at the moment to secure their basic needs..
