2012: Year of the Dragon
Happy Chinese new year! In the Chinese Zodiac, the dragon is the most powerful of the 12 signs. Dragons represent change, high energy, prosperity, and mobility. This year, the elemental energy of Water will temper some of the more intense qualities of the Dragon. For 2012 the Water Dragon will bring innovation, the ability to flow smoothly around obstacles, and successful expansion and growth. The peaceful, clear-thinking energy of the Water Dragon can help us see the needs of others, and work for the benefit of the people and wider world around us. The Water Dragon is a wise and powerful leader, and we can look to this powerful figure from the Asian Zodiac to inspire us this year. For this week only, here is a free download of the new remix for Sea Dragon. With the help of Govinda and Yuan Miao, this cut is on my upcoming release Moving Mountains (releasing very soon), but there is a version on West Wind, available here.
过年好 (guò nián hǎo) Happy New Year!
Sea Dragon (2012 Remix)
Moving Mountains
The 2011 project “Moving Mountains” with producer and friend Shane O’Madden (Govinda), has turned out to be better than I could have imagined. I’m looking forward to sharing. This release is different than any other thing I’ve been involved with. Electronic, cinematic and high energy didgeridoo world music. It’s in the mastering phase so I will be able to offer a free song very soon. I will include the link in an email to the group once it’s uploaded.
My other CD, “West Wind”, has more meditative didge solos, and is available here.. I was fortunate to have Yuan Miao and Lama Norbu from China appearing on it as well. Two of these songs will be on Miao’s new CD to be released with her book this fall. We plan on supporting this book and music with a tour to China next Summer where we will be playing at one of the oldest centers of Chinese Buddhism, Mt. Wutaishan, which lies in Wutai County in Xinzhou Region in Shanxi Province. They say there will be upwards of 10,000 people for this event at the temple for Manjushri, Buddha of Wisdom. All proceeds will benefit the temple there.

11-11-11 Arkansas Earth-Keeper
What a great show of love and intention at this years Earth-Keeper event in Little Rock. Fred Mitchim and I had a great time performing throughout weekend. I even had the privilege of playing didge for Max, the ancient Mayan Skull. James Tyberonn puts on a great conference, always with a convergence of good energy and amazing people, but I think it’s official, the ‘keepers’ want a dance party next year. Sometimes in our efforts to be a “better” or more “enlightened” person, we have to take time to celebrate our heres and nows. Shake our bones! You’ve come a long way, no matter where you are.
Austin Yoga Week
The One Ohm this week was as magical as always. Big thanks to Gioconda and Sarah Luna, and the other instructors. This year, “Changing the World, One Om at a Time” chose to sponsor the Bumi Sehat Foundation International. Playing in the Kirtan afterwords was inspirational. Thanks Sumukhi.
A warm “hug-asana” to the peeps at Austin Yoga festival. Adverse weather made it a challenge but was a wonderful time. Huge smiles on all who attended! Fred and I had a great time playing and hope to be part of it again next year. Sat Nam!
