Farewell, Ray Manzarek 1939-2013. 

Arguably the driving force behind one of the greatest bands to emerge from the 1960s, The Doors, Ray Manzarek will be be sorely missed.

Say hi to Jim for us.

This synth composition is inspired by Lord Vishnu’s Sudarshana Chakra, a spinning disk like weapon crafted by a piece of The Sun (Surya). This divine weapon is used for the ultimate destruction of an enemy. The word Sudarshana is derived from two Sanskrit words - Su meaning “divine” and Darshana meaning “vision”. Hence, the word Sudarshana collectively means “vision of which is auspicious”.
