Does anyone of you guys can recommend me music similar to this one? I really like the instruments used and the energetic line as the track progresses.

The original mantra does not have Om in the second line. The mantra got adulterated by Rammohan Roy by adding an extra Om in the second line (source: wikipedia). You don't play with mantras like this. Our great Rishis have given this mantra as a gift from the source, it should remain in its pristine form. NOT a syllable should be added or removed from the mantra. It is extremely disappointing to see popular labels reciting the wrong mantra !!!

@shanxutube The "Om" can be placed anywhere within a mantra (the beginning and /or ending of a line is ideal) It is in itself a mantra. It's the primordial sound from which the universe was born thus placing it in the 2nd line of the Gayatri Mantra does not lessen it's power of corrupt it in anyway. It simply enhances it. Also if you did further research you would know that there are a few versions of the Gayatri Mantra and this is one of them.

@Enigma1990ad I am not competent to comment on whether it is ok to add Om (yes, I know it the primordial sound from which the universe originated). I still stick to my view (based on my knowledge) that if it is not there just don't add it. The invocation of the gayathri mantra has Om preceding every syllable of the first sentence and Japa, thapa and satyam. I am yet to come across any master to clarify this to me, why these different versions and the explanation thereof.

@shanxutube You are entitled to your views however as I stated adding Om to the beginning of the second line does not obstruct the power of this mantra thus it's not a problem that it's there. As far as I know there are 3 versions to the Gayatri Mantra.
The original version, this one and the following; Om Bhur, Om Bhuvah, Om Swaha, Om Maha, Om Janah, Om Tapah, Om Satyam, Om Tat Savitur Varenyam Bhargo Devasya Dhimahi Dhiyo Yo Nah Prachodayat which has the Om repeated several times.

@shanxutube Also I would like to state that this version is not incorrect in anyway. The addition of "Om" to a mantra simply enhances it. If we operated strictly according to the rules of the Brahmin Rishis who discovered it not many people would know about this mantra as only initiated Brahmin men were allowed to chant it in ancient times. Once you were not male and of Brahmin descent you could not listen to this mantra far less chant it.
