A mid-tempo downtempo groove in F minor built on a soft electronic beat and warm bass, with ney and flute lines and bell accents floating over the top and wordless female vocal samples adding a devotional colour. Gentle and unhurried rather than driving — suits spa and wellness footage, slow travel imagery of temples and markets, or a meditative voiceover segment.
The brightest cue here: C major, 120 BPM, with tabla and hand percussion locking to an electronic beat under ney, flute and plucked santur. More rhythmic momentum than the rest of the set, making it a good bed for movement — walking, cooking, crafting or market scenes — while still staying calm and non-intrusive.
At 130 BPM in G minor this is the longest cue on the album, and the most Western in palette — piano, a running synth arpeggio and violin over a steady downtempo beat, with no overt Indian instrumentation. The extra length gives room for a long reflective sequence: introspective narration, a night drive, or a slow-building documentary passage.
Sitar and tabla lead over an electronic beat with piano underneath and wordless ooh-and-ahh backing vocals, pushed along at 130 BPM in C minor. The most overtly Indian-flavoured of the faster cues — good for astrology, fortune-telling or ritual imagery, or any montage that wants an ethnic groove without losing its calm.
The slowest track at 70 BPM in B minor: broad pads and sustained bass under an almost incidental beat, with ney and flute drifting across the top. Nearly static and very spacious — a natural underscore for narration, deep-relaxation content or a lingering wide landscape shot.
The fastest and shortest cue at 140 BPM in F minor, and filed as underscore rather than full ethnic groove — synth and percussion with didgeridoo drone, veena and wordless vocal textures rather than a clear melody. Its brevity and tribal-ambient colour make it useful as a transitional bed, a title sequence, or under a tightly cut timelapse.
An 80 BPM F minor piece anchored by a sustained drone, with bells, duduk and wordless vocal samples over a light beat — the most explicitly chant-and-mantra flavoured cue on the record. Very still and inward-facing; ideal for breathwork sequences, temple interiors or a contemplative voiceover.
At 90 BPM in C minor, piano and a synth arpeggio pulse under flute and ney lines with soft wordless backing vocals, giving it a cosmic, slightly mystical lift implied by the title. Works where earthbound ritual imagery meets something wider — night skies, ancient sites, archive-driven documentary about myth and belief.
The title track: 80 BPM in A minor, with synth arpeggio and violin over percussion and a beat that includes turntable scratching — the one cue with an urban, street-level edge among all the ambient chill. Suits portraits of outsiders and subcultures, city documentary work, and footage that needs a groove with grit under the calm.
Sitar, tabla and hand percussion with piano and wordless ooh-and-ahh vocals at a comfortable 100 BPM in C minor, the longest of the ethnic-groove cues at just under four minutes. Sits neatly between the album's meditative beds and its faster grooves, so it holds up as an extended chillout bed for retail, hospitality or a long travel sequence.
