Sitar Outreach back in orbit with this original and unique theme for an imaginary western in the style of Sergio Leone! Bryce Martini plays his Udu Voodu for Holy Hoodoo, Sonny Blood guitar became a jaw harp!  This is a raw file/ demo, so it sounds a bit spare but a more polished version is on the way soon.

Temple of the Cat

 Our best version of the classic Velvet Underground track. We tried about 10 times to record this song, but the results were never very tight. This version I think is strong enough to share.  Miss Mess and Sonny Blood absolutely back each other up to the very top, lots of support from the awesome Bryce Martin,  Tim Moore as well! At Patrick Jennings Underground Paradise Place, he calls it Unseasonable Sound Studio.

Venus in Furs

Just a little jam here with guitar and cello, taking themes from Rag Malkauns. (A most beautiful and ancient Raga for the mystical magical midnight hour. These are the colors of your Malkauns soul.

From our first album 'Crucible of Mutants', a happy arrangement in the old time style.. 'Moon Ribbon' was the name of the microphone we used during the recording. 

Moon Ribbon, Sail Away Ladies...

Another version of this perennially popular medieval dance featuring sitar, with superb percussive effects from Tim Moore and Bryce Martin

Saltarello, Spirits Dance

Such a great song from the 80's, actually some of the guys in my band are too young to remember this song. This is our relaxing, chilled out to the max version, I hope it is nostalgic and enjoyable for all. 

Walkin' on the Moon with Sitar Outreach Ministry

A raucous and lively Bollywood theme with a Nirvana lick thrown in to get the funky groove established. Havin' fun and Ganesh likes it!
