♫ Kundalini Rising by Annapurna Experience ♫



annapurnaexperience.multiply.com Annapurna was formed in the process of continuing a collaborative effort by two Bacolod-born musicians, Djotay Soluta and Nonoy Alcalde. In 2006, Djotay and Nonoy, together with other Dumaguete and Bacolod-based musicians, staged in Dumaguete City a No-to-Violence Concert entitled Ahimsamismo. The musicians were then collectively named Monsoon Forest. After about a year, Nonoy (who resides in Manila) expressed desire to once more come up with a Monsoon Forest concert; unfortunately, staging a concert was no longer possible for the group. Instead, Djotay decided to relocate to Manila from Dumaguete City to set up a home recording studio so the two of them could work together on other musical projects. Both excitedly interacted with each other in an initial experimental project, which they dubbed The Annapurna Experience. Annapurna is the name of the tenth highest mountain peak in the Himalayas, which is believed to be the crown chakra of the Earth. It is the name of the goddess of abundance in Hindu as well. The first conceptual album under The Annapurna Experience is entitled Kundalini Rising. Music Genres: Electronica, psybient, ambient chill, downtempo, trance, annapurnic and world beat Instruments: Electric and acoustic guitars, Southeast Asian and African percussions, drums, bamboo flutes, faglong (2 strings lute guitar), synthesizer, ableton live program and vocals.
