By 2007, I’d been living in Seoul for three years and had already spent a decade playing aggressive, bass-heavy music in dark clubs. Maybe it was time to chill out.

Years earlier, when I was looking to travel, I’d gone searching for danger — which is how I ended up on an adventure in Bangkok. But in 2007, I wanted something different. Somewhere calm. Somewhere still. Two places kept coming up: India and Tibet.

You may remember from Lost Dubs 008 that Maybe India was my imagined sound of a place I’d never been. Maybe Tibet comes from that same spirit — but this one ended up becoming part of something bigger. It was featured in We Love Dubstepno, the mix I recorded for We Love Techno at Joker Red in Seoul. A mix that, to this day, is one of my most played and favourited sets. Just last month someone discovered it, heard Maybe Tibet blended with Pinch’s Qawwali, and asked if it was an edit. It wasn’t — I was simply mixing them together.

What I’m trying to say is: I was clearly ahead of my time.
I called this “dubstep” because it lives at 140 (or 70) bpm — but it doesn’t have the aggression the genre became known for. Like the last few entries in this series, Maybe Tibet is chill, meditative, spacious.

And here’s the part that feels strangely poetic: I’ve never been to Tibet.
But Becky — born in Canada, raised partly in Niagara Falls — spent a significant part of her adolescence living in Nepal.

Maybe it’s because I once read The Celestine Prophecy, or maybe it’s because I truly believe there are certain people who show up in your life to help you become more yourself — but Becky is one of those people for me.

When I listen to Maybe Tibet now, I hear things I didn’t realize were there in 2007: depth, texture, and a sense of place I couldn’t have understood yet. Threads of musical fabric woven from experiences I hadn’t lived, but somehow were waiting for me years down the road.

This is what happens when music becomes a map before you’ve even seen the terrain.

TRANSMISSIONS FROM THE ROOFTOP OF THE WORLD

scariest thing i’ve ever made

when i was in Nepal, my friends said: “you should go to Pashupatinath — a Hindu temple, and also a place where bodies are burned by the river.”

okay if i should

when we came, we saw a sheep tied to a post.

i was recording the sound of water when a little girl passed by and said, “hello, how are you?” — that voice stayed on tape.

and then, a funeral fire — a woman crying, completely shattered, a scream of despair cutting through the bones.

when we were leaving, the sheep was already dead, and everything around was covered in blood.

i used all those sounds in this track.

it’s about the horror of death, the weight of loss, and the question itself — what is this “you” being asked about? who is burning, and who is being mourned? who is crying? who is asking? how are you? 

hello?

hello, how are you?

🎶 Gandharba Music of Nepal | The Voice of the Mountains

The Gandharba (or Gaine) people of Nepal are the traditional wandering musicians and storytellers of the Himalayas. Their songs carry centuries of oral history, prayer, and protest — blending haunting vocals with the raw, human voice of the sarangi, a hand-carved four-string fiddle that sings like the soul itself.

Rooted in Indigenous Himalayan rhythms, Gandharba music weaves the heartbeat of the madal drum, the shimmer of jhyamta cymbals, and the breath of the bansuri flute into stories of love, loss, and liberation. Once known as Nepal’s “singing news,” these melodies were how truth traveled from village to village — a soundtrack of resilience, unity, and revolution.

🎧 Recorded in collaboration with the Gandharba community as part of the Home for Humanity – One Home Journey series, amplifying Indigenous voices for planetary peace and justice.

The Gandharba Music

A meditative ascent through air and light — Close to Heaven by Dr. Elliot Lach blends ambient electronica, soft world percussion, and mountain-wind harmonics to evoke the quiet majesty of the high Himalayas in Nepal.
Prayer flags ripple in the breeze, each note a whispered offering. The rhythm is slow, the air is pure, and the sound rises — closer and closer to the sky.

So Close To Heaven

The first track off of Stoppage Time- A tape from J-Halliday & Sakhil Nepal! This track had some copyright issues but we wanted the world to hear it! Will try and get everything sorted to release this one day.

The western NGO complex appears to have played a central role in coordinating protests that have been presented as ‘organic’.
Deeper engagement with China offers Nepal a viable path to economic development whilst preserving its sovereignty. However, the tilt toward China provoked unease in both Washington and New Delhi.
