Rediscovering Roots Through Music: Yuhina Lachungpa’s Journey with “MNEMONIC”

In the bustling city of Bangalore, amidst the urban chaos and corporate culture, resides a musician whose heart beats to the rhythm of her hometown, Gangtok, nestled in the mountains of Sikkim. Yuhina Lachungpa’s musical journey is a testament to the profound influence of one’s roots on artistic expression, as she navigates the complexities of identity, longing, and self-discovery through her EP, “MNEMONIC”.

For Yuhina, music isn’t just a passion—it’s a lifeline that connects her to her past, present, and future. Growing up in Gangtok, where guitars and impromptu singing sessions were as common as the morning mist enveloping the mountains, Yuhina’s musical identity was forged amidst the rich cultural tapestry of her hometown. Every chord strummed and every note sung echoed with the essence of her upbringing, becoming an intrinsic part of who she was.

However, life took Yuhina on a journey far from the familiar streets of Gangtok, landing her in the vibrant metropolis of Bangalore. Amidst the fast-paced urban landscape and electronic beats, Yuhina found herself longing for the serene melodies of home, yearning for the mountains that echoed with the sound of her voice.\

It was this yearning that birthed “MNEMONIC”—an EP that serves as both a musical homage to Yuhina’s roots and a profound exploration of self. Through five tracks that traverse the landscapes of her heart and mind, Yuhina invites listeners on a journey of introspection and healing, guided by the melodies of her past and the rhythms of her present.

One of the most poignant tracks on the EP is “For Chenrezig”, inspired by a Buddhist chant that resonated deeply with Yuhina since childhood. This chant, a symbol of compassion and inner peace, became a guiding light during tumultuous times in Yuhina’s life, leading her back to the roots of her spirituality and heritage.

Yet, “MNEMONIC” isn’t just a nostalgic ode to the past—it’s a fusion of tradition and innovation, blending the familiar sounds of Yuhina’s upbringing with the electronic beats of her urban present. The choice to incorporate electronic production reflects not only Yuhina’s evolution as a musician but also her adaptation to the changing landscapes of her life

Nature, too, plays a pivotal role in Yuhina’s musical narrative. Raised amidst the verdant mountains and wilderness of Sikkim, Yuhina’s connection with nature runs deep, infusing her music with a sense of primal energy and nostalgia. In tracks like “OMW”, she bids farewell to the past while embracing the lush greenery that once surrounded her, weaving a tapestry of sound that transports listeners to the heart of the forest.

Through “MNEMONIC”, Yuhina Lachungpa invites us to embark on a journey of rediscovery—a journey that traverses the landscapes of memory, identity, and belonging. In her music, we find echoes of our own longing, our own search for meaning in a world that often feels fragmented and uncertain. And perhaps, in the melodies she creates, we find solace, inspiration, and the courage to embrace our own roots, wherever they may lead us.
