This first Tank Tribe track is a
collaboration between myself and ex-Jamiroquai didgeridoo player,
Wallis Buchanaan. Wallis and I
always enjoyed a special relationship because the Yidaki
(didgeridoo) is to Australian Aborigines what the drum is to
Africans: there is a profound groove-based vibration underpinning
both forms of musical communication. Wallis and I loved being able
to vibe off each other on stage and we knew that one day we would
work together. Wallis is a
beautiful soul; always exploring the beauty of what other cultures
have to offer both musically and spiritually, he was dedicated to
learning Brazilian kapoiera and was the special guest of Aborginal
elders when he travelled to Arnhem Land to perfect his yidaki craft.
This track is for you Wallis and for all the aborignal peoples of
Australia.
"Your mind and body feels the need: a Yidaki Antipodean vibration."

A special plea to the fans: Tank
Tribe is a self-financing and independent project - there is no
record label involved. The money made from each track will go
towards the costs of producing the next track. If people decide to
rip the tune off without paying for it there will no more tracks. So
far I'm planning on releasing a new track every month for the next
ten months so please support this project.
Thanks,
Sola
