Mondo Rama is not what it first appears to be. It’s actually an ascension - using instruments like the harmonium, sarod, and berimbau while adopting a contemporary vibe. Music that compels one to think of religions, past and present, human conditions, idealism, and absoluteness itself. It’s dark and ambient in someplaces, then light and intensified in other spots leaving you wondering about things you never thought twice about before. Even their cover of the Beatles “Tomorrow Never Knows/Shivaya” is something transcendent.
Searching for the right genre to put this in, we realize there is no category. Then we think, why bother? Music is not something to be classified nor stereotyped. It’s something to be enjoyed and passed on.
