OW9 GUI & Adhi - Katha Manjari

On their inaugural EP for Omen Wapta, GUI and Adhi take on a monastic task. Over the course of five accelerating tracks, they pull ritual practices out of the communal environment and into a solitary headspace.

‘Katha Manjari’ embodies a voyage that connects the mere twenty centimeter diameter of the human head and its contents to metaphysical realms of extradimensional proportions. Throughout the EP’s runtime, you’re met with various non-ordinary modes of reality and lucidity. From the dreamstate of ‘Turiya’ all the way through to the heavy flow of subconsciousness that is ‘Deras’.

These cathartic states of mind contain nods to many different traditions, for you to unpack. Heritage percussive instruments are met with resituated samples, decontextualized field recordings and the sonic properties of different fundamental states of matter–solid, liquid, gas, plasma. Drip sounds become rhythm, sonic smoke particles become resonant ambience, electrically charged glitches become the energy transistor of a track.

The project’s rhythms and timbres hint at ancient group ceremonies, with canonized chants sweeping around the sonic spectrum and different drum sequences syncopating, drifting apart and realigning. The overwhelming feeling that lingers, however, is that this experience is one powered by your own cognition, whether that’s horizontally on your couch or bathed in fog on a dance floor with fellow dwellers. ‘Katha Manjari’ is your guide for pure reality testing. For constructing a bridge through the mist between group ritual and solitary meditation.
