Totem 3
This is the final offering before entering the new wave of the failed future from MMOB. Totem 3 journeys from quiet Bardo womb choosing meditations and instrumental mantras to the delusional glee of Kali Yugafied Indian rock. Totem 3 is the most diverse and heartfelt of the Totem trilogy. A steady pulsating musical mirror prison expressing the atrophy of our "Modern World" through no-age hallucinations of passionate and unfolding melodies. A blissfull mirage filled caravan with no destination pushing onward through a mercurial blue sanded desert between what is and what was. A place where disembodied nomadic djinn join in lament attempting to push through the cell phone interference with a message of no return. Features seven new pieces influenced by the music of Satyajit Ray, Tuareg music of the Sahara, Early Music, John Carpenter, and the writings of french philosopher René Guénon. Totem 3 features guests from SECRET CHIEFS 3 and ALAN BISHOP from the SUN CITY GILRS, as well as many more luminaries from the Seattle music scene. Packaged with artwork by SELDON HUNT completing the connecting art of all three of the Totem records. Produced By RANDALL DUNN.
