Dial M for MantraiTUNES | CD ALBUM   Dial M for Mantra by Jai Uttal & Shaman's Dream

If you think you know the music of Jai Uttal, then get ready for a surprising adventure into uncharted territory. When remix artist Rara Avis of Shaman's Dream began to break down Jai's devotional classics in his Los Angeles studio, he discovered a hidden side to the kirtan that was "dripping with funk." With Dial M for Mantra, Jai's soulful chant takes a metamorphic trip through the alchemical labs of a world music innovator—and emerges as delicious, downtempo "kirtronica."

Shaman's EyeiTUNES | CD ALBUM   Shaman's Eye by Liquid Bloom

World healing music for shamanism, deep meditation and trance dance for the soul.

Throughout human history and across most native traditions, constant repetitive rhythms and the steady drone of chanting have carried shamans and other spiritual seekers into other dimensions in ecstatic trance. Even today, this music, as ancient as the rocks and wind, provides sacred transport to higher states of wellbeing and bliss. Attaining the Shante Ishta is the goal of this journey. This is the “single eye of the heart," the third eye or wisdom eye of the ancients--the shaman's eye. It is the place where the individual soul attunes to the collective, universal heartbeat that unites us all.

Jahta BeatiTUNES | CD ALBUM

  Jahta Beat by DJ Drez

Drez, aka Dr.EZ takes us deep on this one. I'm a big fan of Drez and this one is just awesome! Like the title says, it's got a Middle East vibe to it. No doubt! Drez basically played all the percussion and layed the keys down and brought some other cats in to rock stuff like the guitar and the sitar is amazing! Super solid album, good to mellow out and vibe to while it takes you to another world...

   



Jahta Beat 2iTUNES | CD ALBUM

  Jahta Beat 2 : Progression by DJ Drez

Anticipated follow-up to arguably one of DJ Drez's most popular original works! Combining organic, jazzy hip hop, with world-beat, African and Middle Eastern instruments and rhythms, Jahta Beat 2 picks up right where the original left off! Very meditative and easy to get lost in, Drez has captivated us with what I believe must be a hundred unique mixes by now. The range of his musical knowledge is manifest in his new creation, the Progression.
