Don't

​

 

 

“Aum” is quite simply "sound medicine". The self-produced debut from Ch'Lu is an immersive, expansive & uplifting soundscape fusing hypnotic Sanskrit vocals, classical guitar arpeggiation and an electronic underscore. Click here for EPK

​

As part one of a series using the ancient Sanskrit texts of the Mandukya Upanishads, this opening verse is dedicated to the sound of creation, the vibration of 'Aum' (commonly known as ‘Om’). Listening to ‘Aum” will align every cell of your body with that of the universe, simultaneously healing, grounding and invigorating you. This is a track to relax and wind-down to which will also leave you feeling more inspired and consciously aware.

 

Ch'Lu's vision is to transmit the healing and calming vibrations of Sanskrit and other beautiful languages to a wider and contemporary audience in a unique and engaging way.

Time That is Mine - Officical Music Video drops

​

“This is a song that flowed out of me as fast as the flow of Zurich’s Limmat river below me. "

​

Time That is Mine, Ch'Lu's most downloaded track, has just won the Grand Jury Award for Best Song at the New York International Film Festival. The song has recently been chosen as the soundtrack to the film The Litter Mermaid (A comedy about humans, a tragedy about plastic), selected as Artistic Echoes track of the month, for the Lift-Off Film Festival in Hollywood and Pinewood and a feature of the 2020 Lechdale Virtual Music Festival.

 

Described by producer Pete Brazier at Vertical Rooms as "a psychedelic selfish flamenco ballad" it was re-released to celebrate the launch of the music video directed by Vee Vimolmal. Ch'Lu’s ethereal harmonies, conscious lyrics and classical guitar arpeggiation are the foundation to her signature sound which she co-produced in Switzerland with electronic sound designer Rupert Lally. The video, shot in beautiful locations between Hampstead Heath and Mayfield Lavender Farm on simply an iPhone XR and DJI Osmo Gimbal, takes you on an inward nostalgic journey.

​

Cake : TV Comedy-Drama

A period drama about when we used to work in offices.

​

Zwei Kartoffeln
Tanja's%20Book%20Cover%20-%20Zwei%20Kart

Ch'Lu features in new German book...

Ch'Lu shot her first unofficial music video rather spontaneously in Laos whilst improving her rock-climbing skills back in 2012. German climber and author Tanja Weidner has now published her latest non-fiction book Zwei Kartoffeln in Laos, in which she talks about her time in Laos and meeting Ch'Lu, discovering her music, hosting her concerts, and how it then led to the penning of the confessional and hilarious song Learning To Rock-climb, which Ch'Lu then shot using the local climbing and Laos community. Many happy memories are shared in this moving and astounding book, ( I am under the name Camilla Mathias) which you can buy here on Amazon 

 Ch'Lu's"Gayatri Mantra"

NASA have been using the power of Sanskrit to communicate with new forms of life for decades.

​

As ninja warrior and artist, Ch’Lu wants to entertain you into feeling less alone, anxious or stressed and more like the best version of yourself: connected, fulfilled and eager to get out of bed each day.

 

Ch'Lu fuses the ancient with the contemporary in this next sanskrit composition to lift your spirits, connect, heal and raise your conscious awareness. Composed, performed, recorded, mixed and produced by Ch'Lu, using her traditional layers of ethereal vocals and classical guitar, and an array of "intruments" including a two-string violin, a spoon and cup, pieces of paper, breathing and whistling.

The mantra is repeated 108 times and with a running time of over 35 minutes, the track can be used for anything from chanting and singing to yoga, meditation and dance.
