1. Cicada-C-Chakra - is a serenely,meditative piece featuring
didge, cello and sitar
2. Taraliga Lila - means rhythmic act in sanskrit.Using the Didge
and Djembe it has a tribal/dance feel. A funky bass adds to the trancey
groove.This body moving journey takes you through some wonderful musical
passages of classical cello,sitar and drums, to finally dissapear into
the laughter of a child.
3. Santarji - is a 29 minute voyage through some very fine and
delicate guitar and sitar exchanges to a firey bolero climax of electric
guitar,sitar,cello, djembe and bass.
All composing by Sangeet, Tarshito, and Jimmy
Produced,recorded,engineered & mixed by Tarshito at Kittani
Music Solar Powered Studio, 1999.

In 1999 I travelled through Thailand,Laos,the Himalayas of North
India and Nepal,followed by a journey to Bali in 2000.
I always travel with a guitar and a mini-disc recorder.When I find
a beautiful place I stay for a few days or weeks.I play guitar endlessly.Ideas
and compositions pour out,always influenced and inspired by my environment,my
conciousness,the culture and people around me.
Here are a few of those moments manifested into music by myself
and the musicians I've been interacting with during and since returning
from those journeys.
