Publisher's Synopsis
Here is an album to stir and awaken Shakti, the Goddess that arises from the fire altar of consciousness. Until now, the only place to hear this music was in a yoga class with Shiva, where she shared the early renditions with her students. Alex and Shiva arranged Rising to follow the natural course of a one-hour yoga session, beginning with slower tempos and minimal instrumentation and boosting the intensity incrementally. Blending atmospheric drones, deep percussion, exotic world instruments, and more, these are pieces meant to uplift the heart and elevate consciousness as the energy of Shakti ascends from root to crown.
