Soulsearch Travels by Dubtrak on Mixcloud

Description:

A different mix this time. Not really for yoga practice but more for a headphone meditation. A reflection on love, passage of time, personal loss and mortality. I invite you to a personal journey, as this mix takes you through some deeper mood swings, allowing an insight into human emotions.
Some of these songs are very personal to me.
I dedicate this mix to my dad. I'm releasing it on 5th anniversary of his passing away.

In the last yoga mix ("Desert Garden") I've included a track "Garden of the Gods" which is from my side project Art Sonic.

I thought I should post some links to more Art Sonic music, specifically, the last album, available as a free download.

I wrote "Roadside Sketches" during a 3-week long road trip to American Southwest, and it's the first part of the Southwestern trilogy, a project inspired by the mountain streams, rugged beauty of the desert, tales of the Old West and freedom of an open road. I've recorded a wealth of material during this trip and also did some field recordings which later, back in my studio, got incorporated into the tracks’ arrangements.

If you'd like to find out more about this trip you can visit my Travel(b)log.

Big prairie skies, Rocky Mountain panoramas, desert vistas, ghost towns and ancient Anasazi ruins, all provided inspiration to pick up the guitar and attempt to translate sights into notes. I hope you'll enjoy these little roadside sketches.

Desert Garden Yoga Mix by Dubtrak on Mixcloud

Description:

After 6 months hiatus, Mixes for Yoga returns with a new selection of music. While the last, ‘Oceanside’ mix, explored tranquility of a beach, I’m starting 2013 with a desert theme mix; a place also filled with sand but, instead of the soothing sounds of surf, we explore silence and sensation of open space one can find in a desert. While many tracks in this mix come from netlabel releases and lesser known artists, I also included some rarities by fairly recognizable names like Massive Attack’s remix of Nusrat Fateh Ali Knah “Mustt Mustt”, Liquid Stranger’s early track “Between the bubbles” and Robin Guthrie’s (of Cocteau Twins fame) collaboration with ambient pianist Harold Budd.

Tracklist:

1. Seven - In Psychedelic Shine 
2. Yantra Mantra - Raga Sundara
3. Eastern Sun - Anthropocosmic
4. Blue Bedouin – Western Transitions
5. Eastern Sun - Manifest
6. Dub Parting - Masonik Remix
7. Harem – Jhariye's Dream
8. Razoof - Inhale Shelter
9. TikkiMasala - Sitaram Jai Uttar
10. Nusrat Fateh Ali Knah - Mustt Mustt (Massive Attack remix)
11. Carl Sagans Ghost - A Place to kill some time
12. Planet Boelex - Peflet
13. Liquid Stranger - Between the bubbles
14. Art Sonic - Gardens of the Gods
15. Harold Budd & Robin Guthrie - Deva C 
16. Enhanced Healing - Relaxation Music of inner reflection for stress relief

Sitar theme yoga mix by Dubtrak on Mixcloud

Description:

In this, fourth, installment of Mixes for Yoga, sitar is in the spotlight.
Classical Indian sounds of sitar by Anoushka Shankar and George Koller start off this mix before any beats are introduced. Well known downtempo tracks by Thievery Corporation and Bombay Dub Orchestra take the mix slowly in more upbeat direction, where number of ethno-trance tracks pick up the pace and energize the flow. Among them, there is an interesting sitar cover of Rolling Stones hit "Paint it Black" by Kaleidoscope Jukebox. Another Anoushka Shankar's track brings back serenity into the mix while closing classic sitar + tanpura raga allows for relaxing Savasana. Enjoy!

Tracklist:

3. SpiritinStone - Isn t All One
4. Thievery Corporation - Satyam Shivam Sundaram (Feat Gunjan)
