The English duo Anima is a band steeped in shamanic mysticism, psychedelic plants and electronic music. They have released several albums over the last 13 years, their latest is called Sacred Alliance. The band is singer Daniela Broder and multi-instrumentalist Ali Calderwood. They have made their serene, sweeping albums in the northern climes of Scotland and on a laptop in a thatched hut in the Amazon jungle. They talk about living with a South American shaman, and making music inspired by Ayahuasca as much as Atlantis.
