All Genres > Electronic > Soundscapes > UNA VOCE/CHANDRA JADE SHANKAR: Hearts of Darkness

Chandra Jade Shankar - a Hindu chanting expert currently residing in Arizona, innocently unaware of the power of his voice. Having travelled to India 33 times, the depth of his familiarity with the Vedic dialect is impressive, and has earned him a strong reputation. He has been roundly hailed for providing the 'best interpretation of Eastern Hindu chant by a Westerner'.

Una Voce - a masterful arranger of mood, imagination and altered states...also residing in the Arid Zone. Certain single-word descriptions come to mind: primordial. timeless. suspenseful. At times dreamy and genuinely cosmic, and at other times filled with hyper-organic rhythms and tribal percussion, he deftly blends contrasting sonic elements in a truly compelling manner. A confident creator of alternate universes in which listeners can dare to drift.


Together, they join forces to produce a dark subterranean journey into Hindu Kali goddess worship without being overtly sinister or intimidating. Depite the subject matter, the release is a satisfying mixture of delicate textures and densely ordered atmospheres, with judicious servings of haunting chants peppered throughout. A true classic in the making.
