About this single: The two tracks on this release were both recorded playing the rare and ethically-sourced antique singing bowl shown in the artwork. This is a rare shamanic urna bowl which produces wild overtones when struck. This bowl would have been used in rituals and it has seen a lot of use, as evidenced by the bowl’s patina. The urna is seen in the centre of the bowl. The two tracks use using multiple bowl playing techniques, including ululation and manipulating the base of the bowl once it is struck to create a ‘jumping’ pitch bend effect.
