Based on her own spiritual experiences, "Songs of Love, Death, and Transcendence Vol. 1" encompasses themes based on deep inner realms, love, and soul connections. The album is Ananda's self-produced work in which she composed the music, wrote the lyrics, and assembled the tracks for all songs. Deep electronica, synth pop, industrial and dream pop-infused rhythm tracks resonate with pastoral soundscapes of strings and theremin, all embraced by a downpour of sublime vocals reminiscent of Enya and Sarah Brightman. The lyrics, interspersed with metaphors on eternal love and one's inner self, point to the soul in a state of revelation, gently enveloping and inviting listeners on a meditative spiritual journey. Feeling deep love, feeling the light within, feeling the connection of souls, feeling the Earth as if gazing down from the universe, all boundaries disappear and one is released. Comfortable waves carry the listener throughout the entirety of the album.

Artist Profile

  • Ananda Jacobs

    Music producer, composer, artist. In 2006 Ananda came to Japan as a model, and soon thereafter felt compelled to relocate to Tokyo from Los Angeles.  While working as a narrator and actor in commercials, television, and radio programs, she continues her activities as a multi-faceted artist, composing music and lyrics as well as trackmaking and mixing.  Her signature sound fuses new age, pop, industrial electronic, and classical arrangements in a cross-over blend, as her distinctive worldview is expressed through penetratingly clear vocals and lyrical themes reflecting a deeper knowledge of the self, dream worlds, and the human experience. In 2014 she released the 3-song mini-album "WAY" under the name Jacobs, and in 2019 released her 3-song mini-album "Fire of the Sun." In 2020 she released the 5-song mini-album "PALOR." Additionally she has released the singles "Massacre" (2010), "Mirror" (2020), and "Hikari" (English ver.)/(Japanese ver.) (2021). As an actress she has appeared in the NHK television series "Yae no Sakura" and "Massan," the Otona Keikaku stage production "Welcome Nippon," and the movie "Akai Kutsu no Onnanoko" ("The Girl with the Red Shoes"), and as a narrator has voiced commercials for Sony, Shiseido, and Uniqlo.
