This ludicrous luau is in response to an URGENT need for "Hawaiian music" on a site that I follow. Hopefully this will take them from the danger zone to paradise in no time.

With Dysnomia, the Brooklyn-based group Dawn of Midi made up of double bass player Aakaash Israni, pianist Amino Belyamani and drummer Qasim Naqvi abandon improvisation in favour of composition, utilising sophisticated rhythmic structures from North and West African folk traditions to weave a sonic tapestry of trance-inducing grooves. From close up one may see only dots, but when stepping back an undulating image reveals itself. “We didn’t want to create anything cerebral,” says Belyamani, “we wanted something visceral, something that would awaken our instinctive dance impulses.”

“We wanted to make a record that sounded both musically futuristic and sonically vintage,” explains Israni, “and since the album never saw a proper international release, it is very exciting to see what might happen when more people are exposed to it. And to be aligned with Erased Tapes, whose enthusiasm for the music they release has done a lot for exposing unique instrumental and electronic music, makes it that much more interesting.”

Dawn of Midi - Nix (Dysnomia)

Next-level foreground production music from Lithium Audio Works. 

Are you sick of every YouTube channel's music sounding the same? Is every individual creator really best defined by nondescript EDM remixes? Lithium Audio Works doesn't think so. 

And when did we all decide that production music should be background music? After all, who thinks that a creamy slo-mo B-roll montage demands the same musical sensibility as a musical bed underneath a vlog?

Elevate is for creators who want to use "actual music" in their videos but can't get copyright strikes.
