Swami Rama
On the banks of the holy river Ganges in northern India, is an ancient Shiva temple where Swami Rama recorded this chanting of AUM. As one listens to this simple yet profound recording, one is carried by the singular voice of Swami Rama chanting AUM with only an electronic tanpura for accompaniment. Mysteriously this sound grows and grows throughout the recording. Finally the entire temple is vibrating and reverberating with this cosmic sound spiraling throughout the shrine as it stimulates the temple bells to sympathetically resonate.

Deva Premal
Deva Premal continues to entrance listeners with her rich, velvety voice on Dakshina, another album of intensely beautiful mantras and chants from the popular songstress. The album is both ethereal and warmly serene (it's not surprising that she's been referrred to as the "Enya of Mantra"), and coupled with the repetitive and meditative nature of Premal's chants, it has an amazingly hypnotic effect. Among the mantras she tackles are the ever popular Om Namah Shivaya as well as Brhama Nandam and Om Hraum. Mantras are rapidly becoming the music of choice for people seeking solace in sound, and Deva Premal, dubbed by one reviewer as "the Enya of mantra," is the voice they're turning to. With close to 400,000 CDs sold worldwide and a buzz of interest from ardent fans ranging from yogis, therapists and alternative health practitioners to Cher and His Holiness the Dalai Lama.

Combining traditional and modern elements, their music reflects an unearthly beauty and invokes a mood of transcendent ecstasy.

Shri Anandi Ma
A spiritual tale from India tells of a doll made of salt who was in search of God. The doll fulfilled his quest by jumping into the ocean - completely dissolving himself into the love of the divine. This demonstrates the attitude of supreme surrender - where the devotee of God is immersed in an ocean of divine bliss. On ‘Divine Bliss,’ a female master of devotional chant in the Indian tradition, Shri Anandi Ma (Mother of Divine Bliss), offers up nine ecstatic songs of praise in this spirit. Considered a living saint in the land of her birth, Shri Anandi Ma sings in a voice soaked with reverence for the sacred nature of all life. With gentle accompaniment by harmonium, tamboura and traditional percussion, ‘Divine Bliss’ lifts the listener up on waves of song to taste the peace and healing that are the hallmarks of true spirituality. "Exquisitely lovely." - New Age Retailer

On her most accomplished recording so far, featuring special guest Jai Uttal, Deva Premal expresses the ancient wisdom of mantra through a contemporary musical vision. Her radiant voice floats above a sensual Eastern groove provided by some of today's finest world fusion artists. "The high chanteuse of chant, Deva Premal, is a pillar of originality in the grand garden of Indian music. You might say she's to Sanskrit Mantras what Enya is to Celtic music. Her smooth soulful voice, which resides in the lower octaves, haunts atmospheric, lightly rhythmic, etherial soundscapes skillfully crafted by her partner Miten. Together they take listeners on a journey into the depths of the soul that doesn't forget to stop at the heart. The music's easy on the ears, spiritually provocative and contains enough mass appeal to make even the yoga-phobic stir. Throw in a duet with Jai Uttal (Om Ram Ramaya) and you have an album that will get anyone's chakras in an uproar." - Music Design In Review.
