Music as medicine: Ancestral Visions brings a mix of pop culture and spirituality to the music scene.

Poised for his upcoming releases of remixes from house legend Steve Lawler, Davi (Crosstown Rebels), and Zoo Brazil, SANJAY is ready with his one-man live show and DJ sets. The stage is set for SANJAY to share his message, “Music is Medicine.” Fresh off the heels of his 2021 EP Initiation, SANJAY has crafted an album that bridges spiritual culture with pop culture.

With the idea of having his art serve a purpose, SANJAY has utilized transcendent musical and lyrical elements and backed them with influences such as Nine Inch Nails, Prince, Tame Impala, Neil Young, and Kanye West. The Inspiration for “Ancestral Visions” came during a trip deep into the Peruvian Amazon. Upon his return, SANJAY realized that the path to writing the album would have to delve into his inner transformation.

“Music can be immensely healing and help us go deeper than We normally would. I see Ancestral Visions as the soundtrack to the turning point in the journey we all have to take.” If artist SANJAY’s new album “Ancestral Visions” tells us anything, it’s that the most potent force in the universe is the one found within us.

SANJAY is a multi-instrumentalist, singer songwriter, and producer.

SANJAY’s musical journey began as a quest for freedom, and his vision is to propel people into discovering their own sense of liberation. He enters the music scene with his debut EP, Initiation, an album blending tribal rhythms, transcendent vocals, electronic production, and soul, influenced by hip hop’s golden era.

Born to Indian migrants, SANJAY’s dedication to music was nourished through producing, engineering, and playing in bands, while also taking spiritual detours. Learning from different indigenous cultures, Sanjay began to notice the common thread of joy and celebration between them ~ understanding that his purpose is to bring this into his music.

Initiation is SANJAY’s first solo work, guiding others through their own personal explorations, fears, and resurrection. Having refined his “live electronic” sound, it is SANJAY’s privilege to present a debut that is true to his core ethos: Music is Medicine.
