Tribal Matrix 2

Tribal Matrix 2 further explores the mid-eastern/electronic fusion of Vol.1, the most popular Dakini release since 2000's classic Skydancing compilation. Similarly inspired by the innovative stylings of Tokyo's tribal-fusion bellydance scene, TM2 offers up a selection of fresh, focused tracks designed to appeal to djs as much as bellydancers.

If Vol. 1 was exploring the sound, Vol. 2 has definitely found it, a mesmerising mix of saz and synths, breakbeats and bukkas, daf drumming and dub mixing.

Featuring 100% all-new and exclusive tracks, Tribal Matrix 2 collects work from the pioneers of ethnodelic fusion. Dakini regular Makyo, who has been working in Indo-Arab dub since the early '90s, checks in with two new tracks: the dramatic opener, "Malfouf", fuses a classic Egyptian rhythm with soaring electric violin and vocals, and some serious sub that will destroy smaller speakers. "Parandeh" features the bendir rhythms of North Africa wed to fuzzy acid breaks and a sampledelic flight over Morocco.
