Just while I was watching a few videos on youtube, I came across this beautiful chanting of Shiva Mantra. Beautiful voice and lovely music. This song is from Weaving My Ancestors’ Voices by Sheila Chandra. This is the first album of hers that I listen to.

If you ask me to boil down my list of favorite tracks to just two, (why two? because Mike asked all of us just two!) I’d recommend these two tracks. For those who have been following the blog regularly, Karunesh needs no introduction nor does the track Bombay Pure, on whose remake by James Asher, […]

One of my favorite tracks in Siddharta I. Serene and meditative. I bought this album just after reading the novel Siddhartha by Herman Hesse and both the novel and music made me feel that I haven’t wasted my time with them.

Mantra as such is very short– just four lines:
Om Bhur Bhuvah Svah,
Tat […]

Long before I gathered a few clay stones when looking out for pebbles and I did mercilessly voice my sarcastic tone at them. That was when I found a romanceless album calling itself Music for Romance and a clear massacre of a lovely music (Bombay Pure) in the name of “remake” by James Asher.
Here is […]

In February I wrote a pre-release post on Music of Spheres with much ado from Mike about the music theory behind the music. I recently bought this album fascinated by the claims:
Music of the Spheres is my interpretation of this theory. Every planet and every star; even the whole universe has music within it that […]

Many months ago, Natasha Miren contacted me on email giving me an opportunity to listen to her music on myspace.com. I quickly listened to her music and as it happens with most other people, I listened to the track Nothern Lights (being the first track listed on myspace) fully and previewed the rest.
