I'm entering a new dawn myself.
The timing of this is impeccable.

[josearenas]

Anoushka is a Goddess of Music, she took her father's legacy to another level, it is the Anoushka level... Namaskar 🙏🏼

The descending sitar at 3:01 is the hidden path, as the one Dante took to quit hell

[LEXAHOLISM]

If we were to personify the darkest hour and its transition to first light.. like waking up at an uncalled moment, an intense sense that something will change for the better, any thing at all.. that’s the miracle of hope.

Can’t wait to listen to at sunrise 💚

[tony-k]

Goosebumps. What a beautiful piece of work that touches the soul 🌄

[prharrington]

After the turmoil across the globe in the last few years there are many people poised, waiting for the new dawn. You can feel it can't you? All the hope bursting forth? It is indeed a 'new dawn'! Many thanks for orchestrating our mutual vision!!

[ANToxic]

So happy to see you revisiting the fusion of contemplative sadness!
As someone who enjoyed Boat to Nowhere and Bright eyes - this is such a great treat.

[VeganRevolution]

This made me see patterns of Jagannatha everywhere happily maintaining it all

[hydropulsar]

I entered a realm where I could understand my vision and dynamics of my thoughts around the idea of being insane and then insanely calm.
