Vibhuti is an emotionally concentrated yet musically roving document of spiritual awakening by Sis, the recording project of Jenny Gillespie Mason. A series of healing dreams led her to want to create music that could be the expression of her own “vibhuti,” the Sanskrit term for the divine spirit in the human body. The result is an album that merges spiritual life with a constant, restless search for the new in one’s music.
During the time of making the album, Mason encountered the books of 20th century Indian mystic Sri Aurobindo and his partner, the Mother. Their words implore humanity to recognize its divine origins and future of ascension. Songs like “Mother’s Grace," “Bow to Your Wilderness,” and “Mystic Spider” sprang from Mason’s study of their luminous teachings, while “Pregnant in Bhutan,” “Center of the Heart,” and “Splendor,” draw from intimate stories of her life as a woman and mother in the light of a deepening spirituality.
Never satisfied with what came before, Mason sought to make a sparkling, joyful aural landscape just as a painter would with a newly formulated collection of hues. Each sound, from the Afghan rubab to the harmonium to a Yamaha C-3 synth, is its own particular, soulful creature inside a colorful pastoral. Vibhuti bridges all of Mason’s sonic loves: new age, instrumental, synth-pop, jazz, and world music. Mason worked with longtime collaborators Brijean and Doug Stuart on percussion, bass and production, and invited Will Miller of Resavoir to play trumpet and Devendra Banhart to play electric guitar on two instrumental tracks “Jugaspa” and “Cave of Plenty.” The result is an artist talking intimately with herself and with God, in the hopes that the listener will join the conversation and bring their own depth of inner experience.

If you own a Crosley, Victrola or any other lower end turntable that has no ability to adjust the weight of the tone arm and are experiencing skipping on a new record please try the "Penny Trick". Simply place a penny on the top of the cartidge and it should provide enough weight to resolve your issues. While a great entry to the world of vinyl we do recommend upgrading to a turntable with a tone arm that can be adjusted as this issue will randomly occur. We do not take returns in these cases.
Resellers: If you are buying from us for resale we honestly don't mind. However, please don't panic if something you bought suddenly isn't flipable for more money and then try to return stuff to us because you feel like you made a bad investment choice. Despite our outsized reputation we're a small shop, not amazon. Absorbing these costs adds up on places like ours. Plus a little patience always tends to pay off.
CANCELLATIONS:
Due to an increasing number of payment processors no longer returning transaction fees to sellers on cancelled orders and rising labor costs any orders or pre-orders that need to be cancelled before shipment will be assessed a 5% cancellation/restocking fee on the order total including shipping and any other taxes or fees associated with the order.
Thank you for your understanding.
