Sanathana is a boundary-defying, avant-garde, and immersive music project that blends diverse sonic textures with rich, experimental electronic landscapes. Often dance-friendly, the music is also innovative and complex, featuring unusual time signatures and evolving, generative sound palettes.
For more downtempo or chillout variations, yet with the same artistic philosophy, he has a side project called Sanhata. Based in Goa, India, Sanathana brings together a diverse palette of sonic textures and intricate rhythms that transcend conventional genres.
The project was conceived by an artist whose journey began in Muscat (Sultanate of Oman) and later in Scotland (UK) around 1997–1998, where he first explored music production. Around 2006–2007, he fully committed to the craft, releasing music globally both online and on CD. Since then, Sanathana has remained a consistent endeavor, marked by a continuous evolution of sound and style.
At its core, Sanathana is committed to creating forward-thinking, genre-defying music that fuses dance-friendly beats with sophisticated rhythmic structures. The project uses a wide Eurorack modular system, semi-modular gear, virtual analog synths, analog and hybrid synths, groove boxes, and rhythm and percussion synths—blending analog warmth with digital precision to sculpt immersive soundscapes.
Each composition is a carefully crafted auditory journey, incorporating complex generative rhythms with diverse time signatures and unique scale combinations, achieving a sound that is unmistakably original.
Sanathana’s music defies simple categorization, merging multiple genres and influences to create something uniquely his own. The sound is infused with a futuristic aesthetic, drawing listeners into a realm where powerful, pulsating rhythms coexist with intricate sound design.
The project’s dedication to innovation is evident not only in recordings but also in live performances, where modular improvisation merges with structured beats to create transformative experiences that captivate audiences and push creative boundaries.
