Nadayana – “ONE” – The New DOUBLE CD Album & Official videos

Dear friends, this crowdfunding campaign is over. Those who wish to support this album release with donations can do it through paypal.me/nadayana . Thank you!

***

There is a bird ...

Whose beauty lies not in its individuality…

Not in its song ...

Nor in its beautiful colours ...

But in its ability to unite together and dance

as ONE!

The STORY

My journey started in 2010 when I got my first Hang. Since then I spent many days and nights immersed in its sound. “Nadayana” came from the sanskrit word “nadam”, which is the inner sound found in meditation (A manifestation of Om , Aum, Amen) and “yana” is the path or way towards that state of contemplation. This is how Nadayana was born. Nadayana is an invitation to rediscover the inner music beyond what we hear with our physical ears, a mirror to see a more authentic version of our self.

The blend of Thai Gongs and Handpan (Pantam), which was used since 2014, came as a world premiere. The etheric and angelic sounds of Handpan combined with the organic bass of the Gong brings a unique acoustic cocktail. Its depth and harmony combined is like joining the heaven and the earth, the ancient and the contemporary, the obvious and the subtle into a wider palette of healing soundscapes.

Nikola Tesla was saying “If you only knew the magnificence of the 3, 6 and 9, then you would have a key to the universe.” In 2016 I released my first studio album "Nine" as a humble tribute to the complexity of this Universe. This album featured nine-tracks, nine offerings to the Infinite.

After 4 years, the new album is coming with a message that cannot be kept silent, especially during these hard times we are facing globally. "ONE" is a tribute to unite in the Spirit. "Nine" was a story of the big tree that we are all part of, "One" is a story of the seed itself from where the tree came out, and where we all meet, in the light of the heart.

The CALL

With this crowdfunding campaign I am calling those who resonate with this sound and message to join forces. Let’s work TOGETHER in order to release this album. There’s an invincible force at work in this Universe that can make any dream possible. This album was created with this force at the base of its intention.

The production of a quality record usually comes at a price and by pre-ordering this album you will HELP to cover the costs for studio rent, sound and tech engineers, mixing, mastering, artwork, cd manufacture, online distribution and publishing, advertising, video production and other miscellaneous cost that can occur.
As an act of gratitude to your part in this mission, I will feature the name of all those who financially support this album campaign inside the cover of the double CD pack.

Plus … you will have the chance to win ONE of my personal instruments. An amazing OMANA in the scale of C# Pygmy. Omana gained the reputation for high-end quality handpans and its one of the best instruments you can get this days. The organic sound is simply out of this world ... something that you can only dream about.

The INSTRUMENTS
The instruments I’m using to record this album are a very fine selection from the best makers:
SPB pantam, OMANA pantam, LEAF, JANPAN, NOVAPANS, THAI GONG
