The gigs in 16tonns, Moscow and Tancy, St Petersburg were great. We hope you enjoyed them too. Thanks for coming anyway. The next two shows will be somewhat special. We'll be performing along with Duende (www.duende.ru), a congenial band. A mystical and enigmatic atmosphere is guaranteed.
Here's when&where:
May 27 - B2 (Moscow), 9PM
June 3 - Tancy (St Petersburg), 8PM
It's inevitable! April 15, St Petersburg. Live performance and album presentation in the club Tancy. Similar gig in Moscow soon after.
During the 1st week of the album net release the number of downloads has exceeded 1000. The next steps are CD release (see "Hang it on the wall!") in late February - early March and gigs in St Petersburg and Moscow in April and May.
Good news! For the first 2 days of Ongkara's website the album has been downloaded more than 500 times!
We gladly appreciate your interest in our music. Special thanks for the donations we've received. It is due to your support that Ongkara has chances to claim its existence and become an independent artist to bring you more good music.
Check our orbital player. There is another song from the album in it - Lullaby. Passionate and a little wild. And don't forget to download the full album in MP3!

For its native land, Bali, Ongkara is a sacred word combining as it does birth and death, the Universe and life itself. Just as the very word is multifaceted, so much multidimensional and eclectic is our music that derives from the insights that we experience while observing the edges of life in their connection with cosmos and the Universe. Back on Earth we are a band located in Russia and Canada sharing these ideas to bring you through some magnificent kaleidoscopic music images.

Yes. Your eyes are not lying to you. What you see is an album hanging on the wall. How is that possible? Why we did this?

In this imaginary sketch it features an eye-pleasing 3D picture with an amazing viewing angle. We just couldn't stand the idea that such a nice piece of art might get cramped between other albums in your CD holder. So we equipped it with an unfolding hanger. The CD with 10 Ongkara tracks in hight quality format goes in a paper envelope inside the box. You may take it out and slide it back anytime through the side opening in the box, or keep it loose.

Hang it on the wall, enjoy the amazing multidimensional picture and fine quality sound!

Note: Ongkara album will be available since late February for $10 per disc. Please leave your email here and we will notify you how and when you can purchase it:
