Intriguing rhythmic/percussive elements. Futuristic radio wave feedback sort of thing. :)

You have a wonderful (and very unique) singing voice, Viola. Something very soothing and hypnotic about your vocals. :)

Always love stumbling across your stuff as it is always so different.  Added to Apr 21 Freak Radio playlist

Secret Garden 2

Ambient sitar & tabla music, loosely inspired by the classic Dixieland standard, 'Tiger Rag' (well, only the name really).

It's another older track, maybe from late 1999 or so. The sound quality of the tape recording is not that great, but I more recently (in 2022) added a bit of reverb effects in a few parts to punch it up a bit.

I remember when I was first working on this, I started with the tabla drum pattern and tampura drone, which I liked so much, I left it playing all night and woke up to it the next morning and pretty easily came up with the main sitar theme. Maybe the drums inspired something in a dream, who knows...
