Akasha
returns with this follow-up to their acclaimed Yoga Spirit. Their
innovative blend of traditional, contemporary and East/West styles, is
rooted in their feel for ancient Sanskrit chant and the latest in
modern grooves. Bamboo flute and violin interweave with slide guitar
and mantra singing to produce a heartful, light yet grounded sound,
perfect to support a wide range of yoga practices. A must for any lover
of Sacred Chants.
Akasha is an international musical collaboration reflecting a new era
in the way music is being created: the musicians that are part of this
group use the internet as their meeting place. Musical ideas are
exchanged back and forth in cyberspace until the desired result is
achieved. Singers from the UK (Tanmayo), Israel (Gerhard Fankhauser)
and New Zealand (Kiri Iriwata) exchange ideas online with
instrumentalists from India (Bikram Singh on flute, Avinash Jagtap on
violin) and composer/ producer Chinmaya Dunster. All share a deep
commitment to meditation and Eastern philosophy. Their love for the
ancient spiritual chants of India has lead to Yoga Spirit, a harmonic
blend of East and West, acoustic and electronic instruments, created to
support yoga practice.
