love the female vocals,takes me somewhere else. :))

Last Train To Lhasa is a veritable masterpiece. Still sounds great today. It was because of this album that I learned about the plight of The Tibetan peoples and what the Chinese have been doing to them. I've been active regarding The Tibetan cause since then. Thank you Toby!

To celebratre the release of the 20th anniversary edition of Maya on Friday 28th February 2014, I am very happy to present this excellent remix by soundcloud.com/silinder

I came across his remix by accident, and liked it so much that we contacted him about releasing it via here. Thankfully he was more than happy to help, so please download this and share far and wide.

The anniversary  edition is a limited edition, CD only, 3 disc set featuring the original album plus a CD of alternate versions and a CD of remixes. We have only pressed 1455 copies, each one numbered, and once they are gone we will not repress any more.

Realise info:

The release of the single “Kupalinka” produced by the resident of Mudra Music - Vitali Brik and his new project “Groovital”.

Sound experiment comprising classic folklore updated with the contemporary sound of drum`n`bass, breakbeat, halftime. The music composition is based on a sample of the traditional East Slavic stringed instrument "Beep" and a folk verse about Kupalinka sung by Sonya.

Immersive mystical ambience of the underwater world set to groovy bass line and digital drums. The dialogue between the past and the future. Dramatic atmosphere is born and arises to embody the surreal formations of ancient legends. 

The release contains two versions of the track: the original mix in the genre of halftime & dnb and the roller mix with a straight rhythm part adapted for dance floors and more convenient for mixing.
________________________________________________________________________

KUPALINKA вдохновлена идеей донести до современного слушателя классический народный фольклор, актуализированный привычным, понятным нам всем звучанием dnb, breakbeat, halftime.
Трек отличается глубоким басом, густым, погружающим, триповым и в то же время добрым грувом.

В подводном мире, в диалоге между прошлым и настоящим, рождается завораживающая мистическая атмосфера и формируется среда для воплощения сюрреалистических образов древних преданий. 

Такая музыка передаётся из рук в руки.

SON KITE. Focus (Shiloh remix)

Banco De Gaia has been performing and releasing for over 25 years now, along the way becoming one of the music industry’s most maverick innovators. His legacy is as glittering as it is diverse, ranging from Hollywood film sound credits to the critically acclaimed ‘Last Train to Lhasa’, first released in 1995 to a rapturous reception. His live act still packs out venues and festivals all over the world, with audio-visual performances renowned for their explosive, cutting edge quality: from sampling wizardry fused with haunting vocals and poignant acoustics to genre-hopping musical instrumentals, all accompanied by socially engaged visuals.

Behind Banco de Gaia is artist Toby Marks. Starting out as a drummer in a metal band, he began using sampling kit to cut his own tunes after falling in love with electronica during the 1980s acid house era. By the early 90s, after winning respect for a clutch of credits on the Ambient Dub compilations, he was signed to Planet Dog Records and released ‘Maya’, in 1994, and then ‘Last Train to Lhasa’, in 1995.

Both albums featured an artfully arranged cocktail of textured samples and live instrumentals lifted from across the world. Both went straight to No. 1 in the UK Independent Charts as well as sweeping through the international electronica scene, making him, along with the likes of The Orb, one of the early pioneers of ‘chill out’. Both ‘Last Train to Lhasa’ and ‘Heliopolis (Eudopolis Dog Mix)’ notably featured on Sasha & Digweed's classic ‘Northern Exposure’ mix CD among myriad other compilations. 

Since then, he's released a further 6 studio albums, 1 live album, 1 live DVD and 15 EP’s and also runs his own label, Disco Gecko Recordings. He went back to basics in 2014 with a sold-out 20th Anniversary CD-only (no streams or downloads available) release of ‘Maya’, followed by similar 20th Anniversary editions of ‘Last Train to Lhasa’ in 2015 and ‘Live at Glastonbury’ in 2016.

Pink Floyd and psychedelia remain a constant influence: Banco’s cover of Echoes in 2007 helped shape the ‘Memories, Dreams, Reflections’ collection in 2009 and Floyd’s legendary saxophonist Dick Parry was one of Marks’ special guest collaborators (alongside no-man’s Tim Bowness and Zero 7’s Sophie Barker) on his ‘The 9th of Nine Hearts’ album, which came out in October 2016.

“A continuation of the consistently high form Toby Marks has shown throughout a long and illustrious career” (Total Music Magazine), The Crack described ‘The 9th of Nine Hearts’ as full of “dubby loveliness that fuses psych, spiky rock, acid and ambient” while the Ambient Music Guide hailed it as “Banco's strongest album of new material in 15 years”.
