A Modern Setting for Ancient Mantras

A Modern Setting for Ancient Mantras

 "I want to reach the next generation with these mantras,” says Indian Trap. "When I learned that the Shaivite Hindu tradition believes that matter is vibration and the cosmos is sound, it got me thinking! At it's best, music is a cosmic energy that removes negativity and obstacles, bringing peace, focus, and satisfaction to all who listen. That's what people want and need."


Indian Trap (aka J2) decided to create a world of new sound, supporting this new concept of combining ancient Mantras supported by modern trap beats. The latest singles released are Vishnu Mantra and Parvati Mantra.


 Collaborating with Indian Trap on these new singles, and performing all the vocals on the forthcoming "Modern Mantra" chant album is S. J. Jananiy, founder of JSJ Studio, Chennai, India.  She is a polygenre artist, producer and singer; and is also featured in the lyric music videos.


The new sound they're creating is attracting yoga, dance, and spiritual music fans across social media and streaming services. The music blends ancient Sanskrit mantras with classical Indian vocal techniques and contemporary trap music.  Each track is supported by energetic reels, videos and graphics.


Mantras are prayers that millions have used daily for over three thousand years; and there are many mantras to honor and appeal to the gods and deities. Parvati, also known as Uma, is the supreme goddess in Hinduism representing the qualities of beauty, compassion, creativity, and strength.   


Vishnu is one of the principal deities of the religion's Trimurti, which consists of Brahma the Creator, Vishnu the Preserver, and Shiva the Destroyer. Vishnu is the deity responsible for the preservation and protection of the universe. Vishnu is worshipped by millions of Hindus worldwide and is considered to be the ultimate reality by many Hindu schools of thought. His various avatars or incarnations, including Rama and Krishna, are also highly revered and celebrated in Hinduism. The Vishnu mantra is a powerful tool for connecting with the divine energy of Vishnu and experiencing inner peace, joy, and spiritual growth.

Discover Rudy Adrian’s Newest Album: Beyond the Sleepy Hills Rudy Adrian, the New Zealand-based ambient electronic maestro, is back with Beyond the Sleepy Hills, a mesmerizing collection of atmospheric soundscapes designed to soothe your senses. Whether you’re looking to drift into sleep or explore the rich details of each composition, this album delivers an immersive experience worth savoring. Now available on Spotted Peccary Music in both CD and digital formats, Beyond the Sleepy Hills is a sonic journey through gentle drones, soft piano melodies, and atonal bells that seamlessly blend into a calming whole. Rudy’s signature meticulous layering shines as the album unfolds in nine beautifully crafted movements. Here’s what Rudy had to say about his creative process: "I incorporated familiar elements from my previous albums—like subtle drones, soft bells, and piano in minor keys—but this time, I made them even more unobtrusive to create a truly restful experience. The goal was to allow listeners to fall asleep without being distracted by dissonance or overly dramatic music." As always, Rudy’s inspiration comes from the natural world, making Beyond the Sleepy Hills a masterclass in ambient storytelling. You’ll hear sun-dappled branches, distant bird calls, the soft hum of wind, and the rhythmic flow of water—all painted with sound. Tracks to note: Track 3: Delicate chimes and shimmering textures evoke a serene forest glade. Track 4: A moonlit nightscape of low drones, bright bells, and the burble of a winding stream. Track 8: Subtle symphonies of swelling strings ebb and flow like ocean tides. Rudy describes his style as creating “film soundtracks without pictures,” and his growing catalog proves his mastery. Beyond the Sleepy Hills joins an impressive lineup of Spotted Peccary releases, including Reflections On A Moonlit Lake (2024), A Walk in the Shadow Garden (2023), and As Dusk Becomes Night (2021). 💡 Fun Fact: Rudy took extra care with this album to ensure the tones were restful but not overly sweet, striking a perfect balance between engaging and ignorable—depending on your mood.  🎥 Check out the teaser video produced by Joe Abreu at Spotted Peccary Studios SW. ✨ Beyond the Sleepy Hills is also streaming all day on Spotted Peccary’s 24/7 channel, SPMLive.

Take time to unwind and let Beyond the Sleepy Hills transport you to a world of tranquil soundscapes. 🌙
