about

Exquisitely crafted & designed

The AyurPrana Listening Room was constructed within the walls of a former church and built to compliment and expand upon the natural acoustics of the room by way of fresh audio equipment and extraordinary sound treatment.

best sounding venue in asheville

Interplaced between acoustic panels and rustically braced arches, sliding panels adorn the windows and upstage walls allowing the ability to fine-tune the liveliness of the room.

Six Organs of admittance

Time is Glass is the 27th Six Organs of Admittance album since the project’s inception 25 years ago, and shockingly Six Organs has yet to release a bad (or more importantly, a boring) album in their vast and genre-defying canon.

Arooj Aftab - Night Reign

In the process of designing APLR’s programming relaunch, and while brainstorming on expanding the venue’s musical breadth, Night Reign was, and continues to be, a great source of inspiration. The brilliant Arooj Aftab pulls off the unthinkable and blends endless forms and styles of jazz, soul, world, experimental… the list goes on… but with a harmonious grace, you don’t often find when pulling together so many styles and cultures.

Om Mani Padme Hum: Tibetan Monk Chants and Mantras
While trying to place where I was introduced to the Om Mani Padme Hum: Tibetan Monk Chants and Mantra album, which I believe I discovered on a mix made by lauded experimenter and one-half of the iconic way-too-many-amp dronists Sunn O))), Stephen O’Malley, I realized that much of the sonic and spiritual exploration I’ve experienced had been curated by figures like O’Malley…

Zia Mohiuddin Dagar

Raga Yaman
As I mentioned in the Om Mani Padme Hum: Tibetan Monk Chants and Mantras post, Steven O’Malley of drone icons Sunn O))) introduced me to Zia Mohiuddin Dagar on a mixtape, a mix that enlightened me to many other transformative artists.

Dorothy Ashby

Afro-Harping
The groove-heavy and soulful 1968 album Afro-Harping is set to see a deluxe reissue at the end of the month, reinvigorating the career of jazz legend Dorothy Ashby, who may not be a household name but this prolific artist has become highly influential in contemporary fusion, ambient, spiritual jazz and hip hop – with this album, in particular, being sampled by Kendrick Lamar, J Dilla, and Madlib to name a few.

Six Organs of admittance

Time is Glass
Inspired by the East-meets-West solo guitar musings of John Fahey and Robbie Basho, Northern California guitarist Ben Chasny has built a prolific and diverse body of work under the name Six Organs of Admittance. An experimental amalgam of new folk, drone music, percussion, chimes, and strange textures, Chasny delivered an outpouring of eclectic releases in the early 2000s for various small labels before finding a longstanding home on Drag City, where he issued highlights like 2006’s Sun Awakens and 2012’s Ascent. He later developed a card-based creative system called a Hexadic for making music and released several related albums before resuming his primary project with new work like 2021’s The Veiled Sea.
