Discography
Tantra Lounge Vol 3 Water Music. 2005.
The most progressive volume to date from Water Music’s Tantra Lounge series, the compilation is filled with dubby jazz and prog-electro styles paired with Asian instrumentation and vocals. From the very beginning of the album, tablas and sitars rock steadily with standard jazz instrumentation, transistor turntablism, and dubbed-out-downtempo drum loops. This style is also featured later with Mizter Koffy’s So Much Class.

Bio
Atmasandhi -- A unique musical blend from cultures worldwide.
Atmasandhi is an eclectic & colorful blend of music weaving together rich tapestry of far Eastern Indian Classical Vocals by Kamini Natarajan with vibrant Spanish Guitar played by Sam Ortalano, mystical Middle Eastern Oud by Owen Green, energetic Afro Cuban Rhythms by Mario Astorga and powerful Western Classical Violin played by Shanon Garcia. Together they create music that is unique and truly a beautiful fusion - A musical journey for the senses.
Atmasandhi's was formed when Kamini - an East Indian Classical Singer wanted to create a world music band combining sounds and elements from different parts of world. It started taking shape when she met Owen Green who plays middle eastern Oud and Bass Guitar. Together they played several shows for two years in and around California before they stared looking for some more band mates to create a unique sound. Soon they found Sam Ortalano, Mario Astorga and Shanon Garcia and together they formed Atmasandhi. Atma means "Soul" in Sanskrit and "Sandhi" means bringing together or combining. This forms the essence of their band where they create music which truly blends different cultures.
Atmasandhi's songs are all original. Their lyrics are about World Peace, One-ness, love and Happiness. Some of their songs use ancient Sankrit chants, Hebrew Chants, Chants from Buddhism etc. However they sing much more than chants. They have songs with lyrics about "Rain" "Sunrise" etc.... Atmasandhi's lyrics and melody have inspiration message.
