Influences
As summer draws to an end and the days get shorter, Paths of Prakriti's début album is a great way of clinging to those memories of warm summer days. The album amalgamate's the 60s San Francisco sound but filtered through contemporary influences, while front man Jon Reier Stylte's vocals sooth the listener into a dreamlike state, the addition of flutes and organs help infuse the 60s influences that are present throughout the album. From the opening track 'Running Dry' there is a clear influence of Velvet Underground and Bob Dylan that is a definitive factor which runs through the album. 'Axis Mundi' spans many genres from Folk, to Psychedelic via Blues it is a record which is bewitching and incredibly immersive, from the opening dreamlike note the bands sound envelopes the listener and allows them to float away on a blissful cloud. Their laid back vibes are positively uplifting. The album has a relaxed, hazy pace to it and the band is in no hurry to speed up the proceedings. One thing that makes this album refreshing is the emphasis on acoustic sounds; instead of blazing electric guitars and pummeling drums, we are offered a mix of calm acoustic strumming and escapist Sitar notes, with the latter occurring prominently throughout the album along with the theme of Meditation. There is something hypnotic about the Sitar, that the band wish to share with us. From Sienna Root to Bong and Colour Haze, more and more bands seem to be using this instrument to expand upon themes of meditation and reaching a higher level of consciousness. ~Reviewed by Saul Crowley for Doommantia (Sept 2011)

Bio:

" Paths of Prakriti was formed in the beginning of summer 2006 after recording a set of demos at a local artschool. The songs and words is basicly the brainchild of Jon Reier Sylte and a collective of assisting friends and musician. The music needs no further description... Tune in, drop out " ..
