El Sultán

The Kootenay Yoga Festival was held on the unceded, traditional and ancestral territory of the Sinixt people in September, 2022. It was a beautiful gathering that brought together a diversity of local talent and skill for 2 days of learning and growing. It was an honour to be part of the festival and contribute in various ways. I played two sets over the weekend. One was an ecstatic dance and the other was an impromptu yoga class with my dear friend Shideh. This is the recording of the yoga set, which ended up being one of my favourite sets I played all summer. I rarely get to play all the slow and sultry music I love, let alone get to play it out as their makers intended. I loved playing Shideh's yoga class because of the laughter, playfulness, and non-judgment that she consistently invites into whatever space she holds. I also knew that she would be into the music I would play for her, so that made this experience that much more special. Thank you Shideh for inviting me to play for your class. <3

Xica Xica (Live Edit) [feat. Barrio Lindo & Uji]

With change in the air and much anticipated wellness on the way it seemed like the right time to create a memento of this recent chapter of life... 

The music woven together in this homebrew is quite sentimental, the exact medicine I never knew I needed until it landed in my body at the right time and interestingly the right pace with most being a similar tempo and tone. 

Each of the tracks were recognised from within as a remedy long before I came to understand their meaning or relevance let alone marinade in their melodies. 

It is only now when I listen back that I come to appreciate the inner intelligence at work here and in turn start to rebuild some trust in my body and it’s ability to heal. 

As always I give thanks to the original artists, your creations have truly meant the world to me <3

“Don’t abandon yourself, not when you’re sick, not when you’re tired. Not when you’ve lost the thread, the thought or the thing you thought defined you. 

You will die many times in one life and create yourself anew. This is natural. This is a gift. I’ve died a few times now here in this world. The person I was: gone. 

Throw that older skin into the water. Give it to the sky. Step into what wants to emerge now. Nothing can hold you back when you are willing to be yourself.” ~Jeannette Encinias

Zephrÿm - Satellite Signals Mix Series

VLBFT DBT 055

♫ Fresh release ♫
...from artist Mike Gano. This one's an organic adventure intertwining an "electrified" hang drum with haunting vocal stabs and a rolling groove.

Unsigned. Unmastered. Untapped.

A playful groove to warm up the dance floor, this is the first of many house music releases for summer 2018.

Message me for promo copies or to inquire about signing this track.

Hoop

Inspired by the #alphabetblox installation, Gano's latest groove balances a big, round bass line with more techno-style stabs, plus some 8-bit arcade sounds mixed in for fun.

Moving to this track feels like something between a swerve and a swagger to me. How 'bout you?

The idea for this track originally came from the old spaghetti western soundtracks, but at some point I veered back into my beloved land of electronic.

Chinchilla Dust

Deep, slow pulsing basslines carry the exotic cargo of sound; pretty and gritty instrumentation, the ululation and trill of womens' traditional vocal techniques, and the swoop of mens' choruses.  North African rhythms shuffle and sway beneath the cresting timbre of taught, bluesy guitars, purposeful sintirs and the cascade of Malian harps (ngonis). Hand-claps and qraqebs (double-ended metal "castanets") chatter  hypnotically around the deep, definitive low end which craft the ethos of this 60-minute journey across the desert cultures of Mali, North Western Sahara, Morocco and Algeria.

Mad respect to friends - esteemed producers - Sabo, Akis, Rafa & Jack for their relentless celebration of transglobal groove and tunes which contributed to this mix:

The Tuareg inhabit the Saharan regions of North Africa - Niger, Mali, Libya, Algeria and Burkina Faso. From Wikipedia: The origins and meanings of the name Tuareg have long been debated. It would appear that Twārəg is derived from the broken plural of Tārgi, a name whose former meaning was "inhabitant of Targa", the Tuareg name of the Libyan region commonly known as Fezzan. Targa in Berber means "(drainage) channel".[20] Another theory is that Tuareg is derived from Tuwariq, the plural of the Arabic exonym Tariqi.[10] 

And from: https://www.bradshawfoundation.com/tuareg/ Tuareg is an Arabic term meaning abandoned by God. They call themselves Imohag, translated as free men. 

No one knows the true origin of the Tuareg, where they came from or when they arrived in the Sahara. Reputedly of Berber descent, the language of the Tuareg is Tamachek, with their own script known as Tifinagh, thought to have ancient Libyan roots. Their numbers are unclear, but estimates run between 300,000 and 1 million. The Tuareg were recorded by the Greek historian Herodotus in the 5th Century BC.
 
The most striking attribute of the Tuareg is the indigo veil, worn by the men but not the women, giving rise to the popular name the Blue Men of the Sahara, or Men of the Veil. Men begin wearing a veil at the age 25.

Dance Temple - Inner Alchemy

The Colorado rave scene of 2001 was his first major influence. Gano was throwing parties and spinning acid and tribal house. Then moving to San Francisco, his sound got deeper, more organic. And he discovered the Burning Man vibe via the legendary after-hours parties, like Anon Salon.

In 2007, he met his wife on the playa and chased her to Vancouver island where he subsequently immersed himself in the B.C. house and techno scene. Playing clubs and festivals (e.g. Rifflandia 2017) across the province and performing alongside world-class artists, his loyal, discerning fan base quickly grew.

Next came the TreeHouse. He and his crew built a 30' long mobile rave unit (aka mutant vehicle) featuring a 10kw sound system, 20' tall fiberglass trees (with sound-responsive LEDs), and a roof-top dj booth + dance floor. For 2013 & 2014, the TreeHouse won hearts across Burning Man with their soul-warming blend of house music.

These days, Mike spends his time channeling the vibratory nature of the universe. Check out his mixes and production here on SoundCloud or follow his playlists on Spotify (link below).
