Originally released on tape in ultra-limited quantities (35 copies never really distributed in 2006 on a cassette called "Christmas Ragas"), the 26-minute long track "Winds & Strings From The Golden Crescent" is an audio journey lost into the sands of time and the lushous magic of the Middle-Eastern/Indian traditional music. Listening to this track is like having in your room Kadri Gopalnath's sax filtered through a boombox playing some slowed-down tapes of Ali Akbar Khan's early masterpieces, all covered into a thick fog of delays and lo-fi muddiness. Definitely recommended for fans of Canary Records, Nath Family and meditative/new age sounds with their gazes turned towards the East. Carefully remastered by Valerio Cosi himself from the original audio sources and digitally re-released on Dreamsheep.

 Winds & Strings From The Golden Crescent 

Tribute to the Doomed (2023)

Capacity was recorded in my apartment in Tempe, AZ throughout Winter 2017 during a particularly volatile time.  I would leave these loops on in my home for hours, feedback loops set up just right so the noises would modulate all by themselves.

Capacity

A mixtape compiled by Dan McMahon (Fist of Kong) featuring selections from his private collection of Sun City Girls releases, 1984-2004.

Escape From New Orleans

Exploring rhythmic ideas, accidentally created new electronic raga.  Used guitar loop from 1/9/20.  Wanted to add radio noise but didn't find a good way to mix it in.
