This is a very uplifting piece of music that opens the upcoming album, and represents the more energetic pieces of the release, which is balanced with slow, very calming, ambient pieces. It is based on an Indian raga (scale) called Mohana usually used in India in the morning. They say it is known to have the power to calm down anxiety, stabilize mood and blood pressure, soothe the depressed state of mind and help in terminating migraine and headaches.
