Ashirvad – Magic Carpet (Excerpt)

“Ashirvad” is manifest

After a six-month recording tour in India followed by a year production in London and a move to Glastonbury (Avalon), the production Duo of Mathura Das and Darren Sangita, aka Ashirvad have delivered a stunning album that exhibits an extra-ordinary sense of aesthetics both in their art and music.

Featuring a host of talented classical, devotional and folk musicians from India and around the Globe, Ashirvad is a new paradigm in the future of spiritual sounds.

Ashirvad have created an exotic fusion soundscape blending ambient Indian Ragas, subtle electronica and spiritual moods to guide you on a mystical journey to the transcendental realms. Ashirvad is a kaleidoscopic musical pilgrimage across the sacred heartlands of India.  Ashirvad give thanks to all their family, friends and fans for all their support.

Enjoy the magic of the expandable musical collection derived from the immanent harmonic soundscapes of our beloved friend and Baul Guru, Haradhan Das Baul.  Aural Bengali Bliss in resonant waves lap at the shore of the Baul tradition, mesmeric and hypnotic healing into the deeper levels of sentient being.  Ancient echoes rub against electronic, scientific dreamscapes….

Greg Hunter and Darren Sangita retrieved from the centre of the acoustomatic universe, a notion of exference of the enharmonic traditions of flux and flow. In this sonic melting pot of Anglo-Bengali ornamentation we share the nourishing heart chakra emanence.

Please enjoy these offerings and share your reflections with us.
