Indira Paganotto releases fresh EP

‘Himalaya’ is available via KNTXT.

Spanish techno artist Indira Paganotto has released her new EP, ‘Himalaya’, on Charlotte de Witte’s KNTXT imprint.

On the release, Indira Paganotto says: "I understand music as a state of trance where each track develops a journey and a story.”

“Himalaya EP is the reflection of everything I learned since my childhood until today, the heritage and passion for Psytrance, the experiences in India, the connection with nature - as well as the feeling of freedom and strength like the gallop of a horse, the synths of Goa music, the love and the truth, which is what fills my life.”

Opening tracks ‘Takeshi’ and ‘Sultans Of Mountains’ provide psychedelic-infused melodies and heavy techno beats, whilst title track ‘Himalaya’ provides a cinematic element to the EP.

Final track ‘Cobra’ incorporates further relentless drums, and psytrance-tinged melodies.

You can access the EP now, or pre order it on vinyl.
