   About Omkar

I`m a disciple of Osho

He initiated me into Sannays (= accepted me as a disciple) and gave me a new name: Swami Anand Omkar.

The structure of the name is not as we know in the western world, like forename and name. So the name is simply Omkar.

My current lifestyle I should call an M&M package. That is the candy mix of music and meditation.

I have chosen vipassana meditation as the everyday entry into the oasis of distance to personality.

The meditation was practiced and initiated by Buddha and I found my way to it with Osho.

Vipassana is all about watching the breath, bringing awareness to the breath going in and out.





First of all to this music site:
Some music is free because I like the spirit
of sharing something over the internet.
And some music needs to be purchased
just for the butter on the bread ...
Please refer to the link section on homepage
which is linked on the left of this site `Band Website`
and choose which kind of music you like to download.


Secondly: When you do a music search at myspace,
it is saying "the artist or band has ...xy... fans".
This is not true to me.
To reflect the appropriate situation,
I have friends not fans.



There is also a personal site at myspace
where I have more personal friendships and contacts



A little bit about the work:

I`m composing and performing multi-instrumental.

Over the time I accomplished equipment for a small studio in Hamburg, Germany.

I used to play in live bands on different instruments, basically drums, percussion, guitar and flute and I wrote the songs.

Today I prefer to work on solo projects and the digital age enables me to apply instruments from computer.

The challenge producing digital to me is to find the expressions of the instruments as I would play them live. To produce without having the instruments starched and inflexible. I`m trying to create the instruments in a vital way although assisted with computer and sequencer.

All publications are produced independent so far and the free material is licensed under the terms of creative commons.

Bio:

I was born in Mannheim, Germany and I became fascinated by sounds and instruments very early.

The first instruments I came in touch with was flute, percussion and guitar. On a highscool for children I became educated in music theorie and learned notes and harmonies. It was hard to follow without holding an instrument in hands and except some basics all and everything is wiped out of my mind.

Later I learned some basics on piano,guitar and drums and from then on I was learning by doing and became an autodidact on playing and recording.

With composing I started at the age of fourteen. and guitar was the adequate instrument.

Joining live bands became my passion two years later. I jammed and toured with local bands and wrote the songs.

Until it became crystalized which music direction will be my favorite I was getting familiar with rock,jazz,funk,blues,soul and instrumental music. By the time and moreover with solo projects the fundament became world music,athmo,chillout with influences I used to play live before.

One day I was finished with jamming and live bands and decided to realize solo projects. Luckily with the invention of personal computers I was supported from the very beginning.

For solo projects I currently use a pc, sequencer, virtual instruments and record some instruments live.

Disco:

The outcome of the digital work so far is a free downloadable album named `Petite d`Afrique` available on different MP3 portals, a retail CD named `Shaku`, available on various shops worldwide and releases of single tracks on the internet. Thus to be updated with new releases..
Because of private circumstances and illnes like Tinnitus there also have been longer periods of inactivity.

Finally...

...I`d like to say, very simply: I invite you to listen. I do not write music for mere relaxation or for mere dancing, but for the very pleasure of listening.

I have the feeling we have unlearned this...this simple and pure listening. Just as you listen to a bird in the morning...for a moment... you may want to sit down, close the eyes, and just listen. In the same way, I may have something to give to you.

Beloved Omkar,

I uploaded a new song: "Just Peace".

The words are:
Night has fallen and the sun has gone to sleep
Angels are calling from a silence so deep
Sun is rising and the angels are still there
We're all angels, that's how we know

No more words, just love
Just peace

Hope you like it
Love
Divakar

Omkar,
I hope you have a great 2008, too.

If you know anyone who needs basic computer help, I teach computer basics in plain simple English.

I've got computer basics tutorials for both Mac and Windows computers. They come on CDs where you can see each step and click of the mouse while hearing my plain English explanations over your computer speakers (and yes, I ship overseas).

I've also got a free computer tips newsletter that's worth checking out.

Take care, and thanks for the add.
