RTP Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 Yes Makyo is one of the best artists for chilled music I know at the moment. I love the warm sounds, it's neither too epic nor too organic nor too melodic, it's nice warm synthesizers with some natural-sounding beat and all that somewhat packed into an arabic-like theme. I LOVE THIS I love the cosy and warm and beautiful sounds, it's so wonderfully calm and relaxing and yet not too calm, it's the ideal music for painting, it puts me into a really appreciable relaxed and a little bit trancy meditative state of mind, I absolutely love it. Wonderful stuff. My favourite songs are Vismaya, Soar Angelic (), Suzhou River and Devadasi (In Dub) ... but I must say that I don't know anything bad of Makyo. And well, now I come here to ask if you know something similar to this. You know, I absolutely love this warm cosy non-disturbing sound (even my friends, who until now hated nearly everything I played to them, like it!) and the calm atmosphere ... I want something with a somewhat similar sound that can bring me in the same states of mind! I only know Padmasana that hits somehow the same spot - but that only because Makyo is in it too - their song Be Where Now could almost be from Makyo himself... So ... has anybody recommendations for me? Please! Quote
Guest The Journey Man Project Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 if you got to www.dakinirecords.com and send them an email they'll be more than happy to make suggestions... I'd say you'd enjoy Toires - "Majamar" as well... Quote
RTP Posted November 29, 2005 Author Posted November 29, 2005 well thanks ... I guess I'll take that into consideration when I get no good results here Quote
Trolsk Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 You should get the first two Sky Dancing compilations on Dakini, great stuff. Be Where Now is indeed a good track but I prefer A Distant Star, among the best stuff I've ever heard. Btw, there's a new Makyo album just released, it's called Swar Mandala. Quote

Anoebis Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 Makyo is really unique, and I love their style also... Specially the Yakshini album is fantastic... I would you suggest to check out Ambient Meditations 1 and 3 on Return To The Source records, the same style of tribal, eastern influenced soft ambient Quote
Guest The Journey Man Project Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 Makyo is really unique, and I love their style also... 391963[/snapback] Should be his style, seeing as it is one person, Gio, who also runs Dakin Records and Dakini Nights... Here is a list of artits he sent me to check out, mostly Japanese... couldn't find them anywhere but on discogs, and then Gio emailed me a shop in Japan for which I"m sure to visit when I go there next year cozhe said it has all the rare chillout... The is a bit small but: Blast Head Buddhastick Transparent Ochi bros Calm Asa-chang Jun-ray Quote
RTP Posted December 1, 2005 Author Posted December 1, 2005 oh, Japan ... that is a bit dumb because I don't plan to go there soon But still there is hope: a friend of mine eventually plans a trip there in summer, so maybe he could bring me something? Do you know where the shop is? Quote

Do you know where the shop is? 392075[/snapback] Well I"ll be living there from Febuary next year and will probably be buiying trading on here or ebay international... until then the shop is: Global Chillage @ Namikibashi, Shibuya => shopping district in Tokyo Edited December 2, 2005 by The Journey Man Quote
ProSect Posted December 2, 2005 Posted December 2, 2005 Makyo is good! Try Jairamji - Kinded Spirits, truly amazing. ND Quote

RTP Posted December 6, 2005 Author Posted December 6, 2005 Thanks for the info, Journeyman and Abasio I think it could be possible my friend could get me some stuff from there as I'm very sure he'll visit Tokyo and also that district (though he's not a friend of shopping districts ... )... and thanks, Prosect, I'll check Jaramji out Quote
