Press
“"The repeating mantra is devastating, especially when the song is played on repeat over an extended time and used for meditation... Together the elements form a spiral around the listener, slowly inviting a trembling movement, opening for surrender."”
“"A sonic journey into Bhairawa mysticism, built through a fascinating structure: a sacred opening in refined Balinese, hard-hitting verses in English, and a powerful finish fueled by Bhairawa chants and Sanskrit mantras."”
“"The lyrics and atmosphere presented are not intended merely as entertainment, but as a medium of contemplation—an invitation for listeners to pierce through the layers of the ego."”
“"The music is just a vehicle; the true power lies within the mantra and the intention behind the sound."”
