Sinchi Collective member Hary Shanthi serves up his second release on the not for profit Sinchi label with remixes from MR TC and Tushen Raï.
Indian artist, DJ and deep-thinker Shanthi is a lifelong student who experiments with technology and believes in the "Management of Varied Frequencies." With this new release, he serves up an ode to his Indian culture that provides a glimpse into "the non-dualistic nature" of Kashmir Shaivism, a philosophical system that emerged in
India around the 12th Century.
The fantastic 'Urumi' is his reconstruction of his first encounter with a monistic Shaiva saint and the transcendental percussive journey that followed. It is a truly magical nine-minute trip that layers up broken beats and drawn-out synth leads into a hypnotic electronic landscape. Breakdowns come alive with exotic percussion and subtle acid sounds while the bold bass never lets up to make for what will be an indelible dance floor impact.
First to remix is Glasgow's MR TC, who heads up Phase Group Records and has released on Optimo Music, while playing cult favourites like Panorama Bar and Dekmantel Selectors. His melon-twisting version is loose and freaky with scattered hand drums and eerily atmospheric grooves designed to keep dancers in a state of trance.
Hard Fist co-founder Tushen Raï is a notorious collector who plays everything from Turkish psychedelics to Romanian cold wave and tribal techno. His cross-cultural sounds come to the fore on his Anti War Mix, which is chugging, psyched-out tribal disco for smoky backrooms that like to get weird. The Dub he offers up is a cavernous one with plenty of cosmic FX, twisted leads and crisp drum patterns.
This is a cultured package of deeply moving sounds from Sinchi, with all sales donated to the Sinchi Foundation that supports Indigenous peoples worldwide.
