In the realm of psychill, Dhamika's "Essence" (Astral Waves 2026 Remix) remains a standout yet unreleased gem. Originally featured on Altar Records releases like License to Chill (2023) and earlier versions, this downtempo masterpiece (~7–8 min, ~84 BPM) delivers gentle rolling beats, lush ethereal pads, shimmering arpeggios, and dreamy melodic lines that evoke cosmic drift.
Astral Waves (aka DJ Zen / Gabriel D.) adds polished depth: organic percussion, deep sub-bass, and subtle goa/chillgressive touches that keep it meditative yet uplifting. It's floaty, immersive, and perfect for late-night immersion or yoga — timeless psychill refinement that reveals new layers on repeat listens.
Rating: 9/10
Essential for fans classic Altar vibes. A beautiful, relaxing journey through sound. 🌌✨
