Shamanic music is ritualistic music used in religious and spiritual ceremonies associated with shamanism. It places a strong emphasis on voice and rhythm, often featuring repetitive drumming, chanting, vocables, and trance-inducing textures. Because shamanism is a global complex of practices, the sound varies widely by culture and region—from Siberian frame-drum chants and Tuvan overtone singing to Amazonian icaros and Arctic throat-singing. Despite this diversity, common traits include cyclical rhythmic patterns, drones, timbral focus (rattles, jaw harps, overtone techniques), and performance aimed at healing, divination, journeying, or community cohesion.
