about

Tropical avant-garde instrumentals for keyboards, ukulele, dholak, duduk, harmonicas, DIY kitchen gamelan, and video.

Recorded in Suva, Fiji, 2-4 November 2019.

Mixed in Featherston, New Zealand, during Covid lockdown 2020.

This was one of the last in-person international collaborations, from before the world ended, and had been hoped to mark an optimistic start to the new decade.

A followup to Dave and Snakes' first duo album, fiffdimension.bandcamp.com/album/ngumbang-2015
