Ašmorani is a voice alchemist and multi-instrumentalist, whose work focus on the connection between sound and the transcendental states achieved through ritual. Her body of work aims to integrate the power of the sacred feminine and its shadow aspects through sensorial journeys who invite her audience to hold her hand and turn inwards for a deep discovery of the self and others.

Gathering an education in classical singing and a lifetime journey through different traditions in occultism, she has spent the last decade collecting knowledge on the use of sound and dance in ecstatic rituals, especially in the Mediterranean region, Middle East, Central Asia, and some African regions, from ancient civilizations until today.

Currently based in Leipzig (Germany)

Kabukimono is a one-woman ritualistic music project, formed in 2016.

What first started in the dark folk path, soon found its own truth and purpose by assuming its core ritualistic nature: vocal mantras and spells, folk instruments, guitar drones, and shamanic drums, invite the audience to not only travel inwards, but to take part of the ritual emotionally, mentally, and physically.

Her last self-released album “The Return OF The Fallen”, marks the consecration of this new chapter: embracing the Minoan water rituals, the Thesmophoria celebrations, African and Siberian shamanism – time and space connected as a whole.

Kabukimono’s soundscapes evoke the ancient primal energy we all carry, constantly asking to be released: the energy of creation.

Throughout her performances, the audience is guided to access their own subconscious knowledge, their desires, their fears, their shadow, and invited to make its integration in the self.

“Her music comes from a similar place as Diamanda Galas,
Chelsea Wolfe, Cocteau Twins, PJ Harvey and Dead Can Dance and taking a direct nod to classical themes and also traditional and middle eastern music.”

“It is, hands down, one of the best things I have EVER heard, especially the track Walpurgisnacht which even has some Silencer-esque moments. Listen and let me know what you think. I think, ladies and gentleman, we have found who will take the throne from Chelsea Wolfe, albeit in a non-threatening way.“

“A stirring slab of spell craft whose aural alchemy comes curdled in a shadowy chamber toning that weaves and wavers between the eerie and the enchanted, hauntingly beautiful and bewitched in a flawed and faded sepia gouged glamour. “
