Shamanic Ninja Music - Full Psychedelic Musical Performance

Shaman is a title given to a variety of men and women in different tribal communities around the world. They are seers, guides, intermediaries and channelers. They are the bush doctors and philosophers who have knowledge of distant lands, herbal remedies, power songs and magical words. In the contemporary world the shamanic vision has experienced a revival through psychedelic art, rave culture and rock music. In fact, this is where magic and art become interchangeable, and this is the setting where Aine can be found - in the periphery of society, grassroots level and the underground scene.

"Well, shamanism, and the modern echo of it in the artist is this awareness. It's a humbler position. Because what shamanism is saying is that ultimately art is the best you can do."

That's how Terence McKenna put it. And this is the overarching theme of Shamanic Ninja Music as well. Delivered with poetic firepower it's an ongoing process of self discovery and a celebration of uniqueness. It's a riddle, it's a spell. It's dumpster diving in the digital era, pop culture dissected and recycled... 

I've been working on this project for a couple of years now, and today is the day to forward these energies out to the digital world. I couldn't manage to embed the Vimeo video on the post, but you can find the link below. Enjoy!
