New York, NY (Top40 Charts) NYC based progressive art rock group Vajra released a new experimental piece of music called "Lost and Found" on their Soundcloud page. The band describes the music as a "Dark new years interlude. Life in music 2014." Composer and vocalist, Annamaria Pinna states, "'Lost and Found" is reflective of the emotional and spiritual space I was in last year. It is the chakras, energy, distractions, time, connection and disconnection wrapped up in one experimental interlude."
Vajra's music is hauntingly dark and hypnotic weaving Eastern Indian themes with melodic, progressive rock creating foreboding and mysterious lullabies. Their single "Blind (Blood Mix)" is now in rotation at terrestrial commercial rock stations including: WOBG/Fairmont, WKKI/Celina, KZND/Anchorage, KEYJ/Abilene, WGBF/Evansville, KJML/Joplin, KGRR/Dubuque, WOBJ/Fairmont, KAZY/Cheyenne, KFML/Little Falls, KHAD/Upton, KHWL/Altus, KMZK/Grand Junction, KOZE/Lewiston, KQDI/Great Falls, KROW/Cody, KRWN/Farmington, KTED/Casper, KTRX/Ardamore, KXPZ/Las Cruces, WECL/Eau Claire, and WPNT/Villa Rica and it was added to SiriusXM's hard rock Octane Channel over the Summer.
"Blind (Blood Mix)" is #37 on the Under the Radar
Music Chart and was #1 for two consecutive weeks (10/6/14 &10/13/14) at Rockfile
Radio Ice, and the #30 Most Requested Song of 2014 on Ice. "
Blind" is also being played at a host of other internet radio stations including
Radio 106, WPNY, Rock 939 and Hard N'
Heavy Radio.
Creem Magazine states, "Vajra marries the sound of eastern
India with the abrasive, melodic infrastructure of progressive rock. Since playing their first show in 2011, Vajra has been captivating the NYC music scene with their eyebrow raising theatrical antics and uncanny sound. [Their] live show is like a cathartic punch in the face…"
The Big Takeover Magazine describes Vajra's music as, "sinister, sprawling, and stately featuring booming, tribal drums, ominous synths and lucent, spiraling guitars...[w]hat further sets them apart is the East Indian mysticism that pervades thanks to Pinna's hypnotic, Classical Hindustani-tinged singing."
According to Progression Magazine, Vajra's music is, "an innovative nexus of melodic prog, world beat and hypnotic eastern vibes, delivered with dramatic panache."
