Tribal Spirit: Sound Samples

Song Lyrics - CD Credits

The conceptual seeds for this project began with Carolena Nericcio of FatChanceBellyDance having the idea of bringing together Helm's expertise in acoustic, folkloric music for tribal belly dance and Phil's distinctive world fusion sound to create something really unique. This approach opened the way to explore the many facets of Tribal Spirit throughout the world. Helm traveled to Rajasthan in India and, with the contacts of Colleena Shakti, was able to record with musicians from the Sindh desert. Helm twice stopped by Phil's studio, Expandibubble, in the UK to brainstorm and record as well. Phil's personal contributions are a result of his travels to Egypt and the USA, hearing soundscapes within cacophonies.For wholesale orders, please contact us directly.
