Prince Rama

Brooklyn-based “now age” group Prince Rama (formerly referred to as Prince Rama of Ayodhya) shaped in 2007 round the talents of Michael Collins and sisters Taraka and Nimai Larson. The trio users, who were elevated inside a Hare Krishna-centric Florida community, fulfilled in senior high school and started their musical trip like a straight-up punk-pop clothing, but a yr inside a Boston artwork school, and a stable diet plan of Amon Düül, Pet Collective, and Gang Gang Dance information, helped them make the changeover from wannabe skatepunks to cosmic purveyors of tribal, mantra-heavy, lo-fi psychedelic pop. The group’s debut collection, Threshold Dances, made an appearance in 2008 within the British-based Cosmos label. Zetland found its way to 2009, followed this year 2010 from the limited vinyl fabric EP Structures of Utopia (Pet Picture Search) and Darkness Temple, that was co-produced by Pet Collective’s Deakin and Avey Tare and released on the Paw Songs imprint. The Larson sisters, Taraka and Nimai, pared Prince Rama right down to a duo for the group’s 5th record, 2011’s Trust Today. It was documented within a cathedral with manufacturer Scott Colburn. The building supplied an ideal environment because of their new cross types of pagan and modern noises, witchy textures, and ambient areas. In Feb of 2012, Not really Not Fun released the group’s one “Utopia = NO INDIVIDUAL” b/w “Exorcise [Chopped N Skrewed R.E.M.We.X.],” followed in November with the full-length TOP Hits from the World, again in Paw Monitors. The severe sports-inspired Xtreme Today, released by Carpark, implemented in 2016.
