‘Andas’ is the Swedish word for “breathe” and “spirit”, as well as the title of Aasma’s calming musical study of the element of air. A celebration of the connector that brings humanity together and grounds us: “How we breathe is everything. Whenever you’re scattered, you can gather yourself by coming back to your breath and body.”

Bringing this idea to life, ‘Andas’ is a beautiful, ambitious record that blends field recordings of wind, gongs, chimes, breath samples and layered vocals to evoke “a space for presence, meditation and reflection.”

Taking inspiration from breathwork rituals, the songs can be enjoyed as music or used for specific practices, wherever you are in the world.

Mira Aasma writes, produces and performs experimental music inspired by the elements under the artist name Aasma.

Gothenburg, Sweden

Residing in deep forests, misty mountains, flowing rivers and the vast ocean, Aasma presents odes to nature while creating spaces for clear mind and presence.

Totemically transforming waves, wind, rocks and root systems into narrative stories and characters, their work shimmers between the textural lines of dream-pop, ambient and experimental.

Based between Bohusländ and Berlin with Swedish/Estonian heritage and a childhood shaped by choir-singing and drums, Aasma’s multi-instrumental approach weaves voice, gongs, bowls, field recordings and flute into deeply meditative sound healing sessions.
