The album is the fruit of their 6 month recording tour and a years production work back in Sangita Studio HQ in London. With pre-release copies having been tested by Yogis, Masseurs, Psychedelic Dreamers, Wizards, World Class Audiophiles and Cosmic Dudes across the globe. we can say with certainty that this has well and truly passed the Acid Test.
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.

We are pleased and delighted to share news of this recording with you from the Sangita Sounds Arkives. Sukhdev Mishra, eminent classical musician from the holy city of Varanasi, features here on this Indian Classical Music sampler. During his UK tour Sukhdev made time to share a selection of short, Raga influenced pieces with us at Sangita Studio. On this recording, small excerpts from different Ragas were played in order to give a taste of the variety of moods available from different Ragas.
Listen to the complete album here in our player or download and enjoy.
Enjoy a new track from Noodreem – “Can I See?”. Open the mystic musicbox and let the waves of Peace lapping at the Shores of the Isle of Avalon bathe you in dream time consciousness and envelope you in gossamer spectral hues. “Can I See?” is a metamorphological enquiry into Sonic Ontology following the quest for self realisation. In deepest meditation and with the gentle sway of an Elephant strolling in the evening Sun, we’ll journey on through the night, to the Stars.
