Zar Electrik
Zar Electrik pays homage to tribal cultures, particularly through the incorporation of the ancient Zar ritual originating from Ethiopia and Egypt. This ritual serves as a conduit for healing, achieved through trance and connection with the spirit world. Zar Electrik transports us into its unique universe, where the reigning forces are trance and dance. Its music resonates within our beings; the electronic layers resembling mantras; and the voices akin to invocations. The overall experience mirrors a tribal rite, guiding us towards an altered state of consciousness. The music of Zar Electrik is best encountered on the dance floor, facilitating a transformative and cathartic ritual trance.
