Kunzhi by Five Gods Of The Head

Bön is a religion originally from Tibet. Nowadays, most part of its legacy is unknown, but it’s true that to a certain point, it’s impossible to distinguish between what’s Buddhist hegemony and what has been colonized, but never commanded, Bön origin.

Likewise, Kunzhi, the first work of Five Gods of the Head (both concepts relative to Bön's wisdom) are found in a vague line that matches sound and meditation experiences. Kunzhi, which in Bön's knowledge is referred to an origin where everything's sustained, being it at the same time a sort of original nothingness, leads us through a journey that moves us through the depths and gravity of its drones mixed with basic elements of the whole Bon ritual, to a listening space twinned with the originary and esoteric mantra's knowledge.

Just like this ancient wisdom is filtered by the practices of the actual Tibetan Buddhism, this sound work is kept resounding in the depths of consciousness even after having pressed ‘stop’.

SMT is a record label focused on diffusion and consciousness of the sound experience as a process of deep meditation, as well as an incitement to the dark and suppressed life of the rit. Each edition is shown as one more facet of a reality that combines the concrete and the infallible; it’s shown as an area between the archaic and it’s displayed in a listening experience great beyond sound.
