SAPNU #004
Sapnu Ambient & Experimental Music Mix Series
Bright flashing lights and me floating in the air. Feeling grateful for the pleasant warmth that the sun’s rays give me. What I receive, I give to others. The gift of sharing. The quiet whisper of the wind in my ears, birds chirping, river flowing, trees reaching up towards the clouds. Is this eternal? My faith grows, through fears, through calm cosmic vibrations crashing into me. Dreaming about distant galaxies. Noticing small details that soften the emptiness of my heart while trying to fill it with deep breaths. Cool moonlight awakening consciousness at night. Learning to fall and rise again. Expanding the field of vision. Lonely souls will meet again on the journey and give each other intimate closeness. I’m floating on my way to you. We will meet and stay in eternal silence.

Sapnu Ambient & Experimental Music Mix Series
It is a warm summer night, and we are participating in the wild ritual. Massive bonfire flames are coming up to the sky, and scores of people dressed like animals dancing around. Others are sitting and playing the drums, and I am sitting all naked next to this folk. Drums start to play louder and louder, and it is getting unbearably hot. Flames are soothing and burning my body at the same time. Sweat runs like rivers, and I close my eyes and start feeling how my soul is parting the body.
I'm leaving this world by ascending high. Surrounded by soft and cool clouds, I am running through treetops and jumping on the highest mountains. My inner voice tells me to keep running forward on these long bridges to reach that magical passage to happiness and bliss.
I start wondering what I will have to say or how to greet the happiness? Would I be able to touch it or smell it? Not feeling the ground underneath, I'm just ascending higher and higher into the infinite skies. Suddenly I see an image and start going forward with my last bits of energy. And finally hit a mirror in which I witness myself.
All confused, start thinking whether this is how happiness and bliss looks. Did I have to go all the way and spend all the energy to find myself at the other end? Do I have enough willpower to find a different type of bliss, joy or happiness because the current one is not enough? Should I stay or ascend further?

Sapnu Ambient & Experimental Music Mix Series
I walk on soft moss through a foggy and magical forest with my bare feet softly floating by fernery path. The feeling of fern leaves whispering after sensing the bodily warmth arouses me. They sense me returning.
The wind diving within the tree branches and cumin remind me of the breath of life. It is the smell of my tree, and I am close. Have to go to my tree to stay and listen to its stillness.
Looking at it from its trunk to the very top, which is forever green, and then reflecting and contemplating. I hug the tree with my eyes closed and wish to become it just for a moment. Want to stand firmly and calmy on the ground, want to relax and live the moment.
I lay down next to it, and feel how the roots are embracing me. It is so lovely to stop for a moment and enjoy this feeling. Will stay here for some time. Join us for a moment and lay down next to me. Close your eyes, relax, and listen to what the forest has to say to you.
SAPNU #001
Sapnu Ambient & Experimental Music Mix Series
There are dreams out there which we remember vividly. Time and again, we have the same dream multiple times which makes us question ourselves - is our mind or psyche tries to tell us something with it? If we think a lot about something during our day/nightlife, would it materialize into a related dream? Are our dreams visionary?
With this in mind, Ramu Records begins mix series called Sapnu, which is an experimental and ambient music bridge connecting the real with the dreamlike.
For the first mix, we thank Ramu Record crew members - VytisVA & La'Shaor.
