About "Charon "
Ashram’s latest single, „Charon“, blends the mysticism of Eastern and Western traditions, creating a hauntingly beautiful soundscape. Inspired by Hermann Hesse's Siddhartha and Greek mythology, the track explores the metaphor of the ferryman—both in the spiritual journey of life and death. The song’s intricate 17/8 to 9/8 time signature showcases the band’s complex musicality, with rhythmic transitions symbolizing the crossing between worlds.

The music video, filmed in the vibrant city of Trivandrum, South India, brings the song's themes to life, with stunning visuals that highlight the cultural and spiritual depth of the track. "Charon" is not just a song—it’s an immersive journey through sound, myth, and the human experience.
