"Live at Dakini Nights" (DAK2113) is s compilation documenting the artists who've played at Dakini Nights over the past 5 years. The tracks aren't live recordings -- most of the stuff we recorded off the P.A. was too hot -- but rather studio recordings representative of what the artists do live. Nine all new and exclusive mixes featuring:
еее MAKYO, with a remix of a track off his forth coming album on Dakini...
еее GREG HUNTER of Subsurfing / Dub Trees / The Orb / Juno Reactor fame, with his first released tracks in quite some time...
еее KARSH KALE, a "lost" track from the archives featuring sarangi by Ustad Sultan Khan...
еее PUFF DRAGON, aka Double Dragon, the freshest talent on Tokyo's ambient / downtempo scene, following up his tracks on Ultimae and Iboga...
еее OCHI BROTHERS, a stripped-down, heavily percussive track reminiscent of their ive sets, with GoRo on zen flute...
еее SEVDA, featuring Goro and Madoka, putting the dub into some nice middle-eastern solos on saz and ney...
еее ISHQ, his first new material since the much-loved "Orchid". This track has a heavily psychedelic vibe, and Dakini Nights regulars will remember it as the one he opened his live set with last September, with Tara-Mika doing her aura-dance thing...
еее RASIYA, new Indian-ambient-jam band, who've played at Dakini the past two summers. Their first released track.
The album also features stunning artwork, and a 12-page booklet featuring photos from the events, vol.1-11.
