Nanda

Nanda Biography

There are at least two different artists called Nanda. 1. Mr. Nicholas Grabenstein, better known as Nanda to his closest peers of family members, artists, musicians, peace promoters, transcendentalists, devotees, yogis, rastas, hippies, dancers, lovers, non-haters and mischief makers, has been musically influenced from a very young age. Cutting edge sounds of early Moog and Roland synthesizers, as well as an innate understanding of percussion, made the love of computer based music making come naturally. His inspiration continues to be fueled with the complete sentiment of how music touches so many people and is motivated to spread this positive vibe through his music making. Currently residing in Santa Cruz Ca., he is busy working on future developments to dose the world with abstract tones of audio psychedelia. Vast musical influences range from IDM and Breakbeat, to Dub and World Fusion. In today’s fight against the dark forces, and using music as the weapon, there is no plan on slowing this ship down. 2. Nanda Zervaas was a ballet dancer and 'beat girl' from The Hague, The Netherlands, who released just one single as a singer under the moniker Nanda: 'Everything Is Allright' b/w 'Spring' (Polydor, 1970), the A-side a cover version of the 'Jesus Christ Superstar' song, the B-side an original penned by Hans and Jan Vermeulen of established Dutch beat/pop group, Sandy Coast.
