VOICE ACTIVATION workshop
Tauranga, New Zealand
March 2019
We come together in a circle.
We enter a meditative practice, "The Yoga of Sound", exploring the inner workings of the Voice.
Gradually we start to sing with grace and tune in.
Before you know it, we enter a different space inside ourselves, feeling free and open to share our voice and feel our heart.
¬¬ This is a group music game inspired by the ancient Indian alchemy of Raga, by African heritage singing, by traditional Balkan roots and Middle-eastern soul-speaking melodies, where we use the voice as our only instrument.
¬¬ Participants will work with voice experimentation and sound production, improvisation and expression through spontaneous interaction.
¬¬ Within a friendly environment we will have the opportunity to discover the full potential of our voice and reconnect with the music nature that exists within us all, right from the moment we are born.
¬¬ We use the vibrations of our voice's sounds for relaxation, release and self-improvement in our personal journey.
When using correct breathing, we achieve stability, better focus and greater awareness.
¬¬ Conscious breathing causes an emotionally calming effect. It is one of the most effective methods for reducing tension and hyperactivity of the brain.

Today's Libra full moon is helping out with the official release of my new song "Palisandros" (meaning "Rosewood", one of the main kinds of tonal wood used in traditional instrument-making), which I have been procrastinating for some time now, because of how vulnerable and exposed it makes me feel in a lot of many different ways.
First and foremost, singing in my native Cypriot dialect; this is the first song I have written in Cypriot. It brings tears to my eyes every single time. Partly I know why; partly I am waiting to explore..
Secondly, there is nothing fancy about this recording; yet the story is interesting: I conceived the melody 3 years ago while rehabilitating from a knee surgery and being hosted in Greece by my dear friend & exceptional guitarist Bill Stathopoulos, I wrote the lyrics while trying it on the piano of my brilliant songsister Arianna Tondo ヅ in Italy, I recorded it with special creature's Benjamin Hedengran Andersen classical guitar in a soundproofless hut in India, I used the chimes, rattles, cajon and djembe belonging to multi-talented musician and top-notch father David Esteban, while shooting the video in the wilderness of the Philippines with charismatic and tribal soulsister Dona Tumacder-Esteban, finally mixing and producing it in the company of my dogs in Cyprus.
Lastly, I would like to dedicate this song to mother Earth and the four elements. And I would like this song to be a reminder to all of us: That no matter how tough people wish to look on the outside, remember there is a soft, tender and sensitive part somewhere deep inside them, that got trapped there for one reason or another. By all means, it wants to come out. If only we give it a chance, it wants to come out. And each one of us can help somebody else bring their trapped part out and breathe again anew. Each one of us can help another person lift that weight off their shoulders. There is surely a way. Each one of us is a key to unlock the buried stuff lying deep in s

The idea of this cover song is to mix the traditional Bulgarian 5/8 song about Gyura who goes down to the river with the Medicine song by Rising Appalachia, which is actually a reggae-style song, "honoring the traditions of folk Medicine; plant-based Medicine as a tool for empowerMent and healing.
It is a call to action to support the voices of the herbalists, healers, and teachers… the roots, plants, trees, and stones… the arts, the spirits, and the wild ones.
It is an honoring of all the many ways that we can be well, and the radical and traditional ways in which we can steward health within ourselves.
This song is a direct tribute to the people around the world who are holding and teaching these ways of herbal plant-based Medicine, educating us all to know our gardens, our forests, our plants and our own bodies... to bring wellness back into our own hands and communities. It is not a dismissal of modern Medicine, but a gratitude and honoring of its ancestry and foundations within folkloric traditions.
As we are moving into a new season, a new tiMe, and a new chapter, we offer this song as a ritual anthem for this transition and tiMe of great change. " ~ Rising Appalachia

This track has been recorded in a single track, single recording, outdoors in the guesthouse's rooftop where I stayed in Varanasi, India last December 2018.
The handpan is a Cm SpaceDrum belonging to my dear friend Benjamin Andersen.
There are sounds & noises within the track from the buzz of Varanasi; I have not attempted to clear the track from the monkeys, the builders next door or my friend's mobile phone ringtone!
I have only added some effects, such as rotor sound and delay to the existing handpan's natural sound.
The whole 20-minute-long song is an improvisation inspired by life and music in Varanasi.

This video was shot just once with 2 simultaneous cameras and a Zoom Q2N recorder, improvising with instruments such as guitar, handpan Annaziska C#, shruti box, percussion, chimes, bells, natural sounds and the Voice.
I am also using Boss RC202 for loops and effects, Freeze by Electroharmonix, Delay by TC Electronics and Analog Tremolo & Reverb pedal by Strymon, as I wish to recreate long, sustained sounds from the guitar.
Next time you have 40 minutes, connect a good pair of speakers or headphones to your device, sit back and enjoy the journey.
Our Voice is the King Instrument, we can do anything and everything we want with it, when we learn how to use it efficiently and effortlessly.
Bending time, transcending realities, switching to higher vibrations
Breathing consciously.
