Nikki Borodi’s 2008 release of “Chakra Rock” weaves a fully realized journey through the Eastern Chakra system into a colorful, energetic rock-electronica album which gives the word “New Age” music an entirely different face. The 7 tracks illustrate both the deeper
symbolism of the Chakras through the lense of Nikki’s Borodi’s corporeal experience and personal stories. A spiritual cheerleader, she calls on listeners to fully realize themselves through the chakra system encouraging an exploration of their roots, sexuality, power,
heart, personal voice, and intuition.

The album vibrates with Nikki’s clear, soulful soprano voice cascading around 7 different musical landscapes where the instrumentation, arrangements and rhythms directly correspond to the qualities of each Chakra. The 1st track, “root” relies heavily on a strong, steady percussion section and driving electric guitars distinctively setting the ground for each
successive track. “Crown” ends the album with etheral vocals and euphonic violin lines, melodically illustrative the ascent to the top of the Chakra system. Weaving influences of funk, trip-hop, electronica, and classic rock, Chakra Rock takes you on an uplifting,
fully saturated musical journey into the mystical world of the Chakras. Weather you’re driving in the car, doing yoga, or just want to dance this record is a beautiful addition to your musical collection. Not to mention the packaging is made with 100% certified green components and printed with vegetable inks!

“Nikki totally rocks the shakti in your chakras with a dynamic vibration of spirit and soul.”
~Anodea Judith author of Eastern Body Western Mind.
