TRIBAL DOLPHUSION
Tribal Dolphusion is a group of musicians based
around Byron Bay, Northern NSW, Australia.
This music is unique - by fusing sounds of the ocean
(dolphins, orcas and bearded seals) with rhythms of the Earth (drums and
didgeridoos) and modern melodic instruments this band produces an alive
celebration of ancient/modern music.
Using the ancient Indian chakra system as a
foundation (ie from low C key to high B key and drum rhythms based on the number
of petals represented in each chakra symbol) this music is a remembrance
(re-member-dance) of dolphin songlines.
As the Legend of the Golden Dolphin continues to
evolve, this chakra transcendence (transcend-dance) aims to bring awareness
about the majestic creatures of our oceans - the cetaceans (whales and
dolphins).
It is hoped that in the near future a "Cetacean
Nation" will gain representation at the United Nations - giving legal and
national recognition to cetaceans.

Dolphusion - This is the melodic mix, a fusion of
guitars,flutes,bass,vocals,violin & sitar with the original Dolphins,Didge

DIDJA DREAM TOO?
The didgeridoo is an ancient Aboriginal
instrument.
By blowing into this "long wooden tube" with
continuous circular breathing one is able to contact the
spirits
or tune into the "dreamtime".
I've recorded many didge-fusion albums over the
years.
Since then I've had many requests for a didge
only album.
So finally I've mastered an entire album with only
didge.
