Like raising children, you begin with great intentions and a pre-conceived idea as to how best support and nurture them – but, just like children, music is a living phenomenon, and it has ideas of its own, which we did our best to honour.

When Deva Premal and Miten recorded Mantras for Precarious Times in 2010, they saw it as the first in a series of albums offering thoughtfully curated selections of mantras chosen for particular applications in everyday life. Deva's contemporary interpretations of Sanskrit mantras have been forged ever since with the subtle and sensitive instrumental accompaniment of Miten and in recent years also of Nepalese bansuri flute maestro Manose. Raised in Germany to the sound of mantras, Deva Premal met UK rock musician Miten in India, at an Ashram where they both studied meditation. Based upon the tradition of Japa, a spiritual discipline centered upon the meditative repetition of mantra (in cycles of 108 recitations), Deva Premal and Miten invite the listener to join them in chant - and to utilize humanity's most powerful healing tool: the voice.įor nearly two decades, audiences around the world have flocked to concerts and collected the recordings of beloved mantra singers Deva Premal and Miten.
