Michel's Dalai Lama Renaissance Album

Om Cumbia Om: The Liberating Message of the Dalai Lama Finds Deep Global Resonance on the Dalai Lama Renaissance Soundtrack

Press Release by FlipSwitch, LLC

There’s a sanctuary where the pulse of cumbia moves to Tibetan notions of eternal time, where Native American and Indian sonics transform the voice of a female Sufi from Iran. A retreat where one of the planet’s most revered teachers’ words become a melody, and the message dances in the medium.

Another Wish Fulfilled

Sydney, 27 March - 4 April 2010
I'm back from Sydney and a happy week spent with my beloved Alice who took me along to all her activities and introduced me to her friends, buddies and carers.

What's that creature?

Look what the groomer left behind! Is it a DIK-DIK? A BAT?, RAT?, WHAT????
No, it's a TASHI!

Actually, we've just discovered her true identity - she's a miniature schnauzer under disguise as a Tashi buddha-dog ever since Hootoksi discovered her in 2003 at the Malaysian SPCA.

Back from Europe!

Yes it was very cold at times but being with dear friends and relatives kept us warm and safe....

Farhad launches United-One

Farhad recently launched a music group called United-One. As bassist and manager for the band he says "United-One has already staged a few successful performances here in Seattle and it's adding immeasurable value to my music promotion business." The lyrics and music - in the new age fusion genre - are original and you can listen to demo tracks at http://www.myspace.com/uniteoneproductions.

Adil appointed Art Director/Designer at Oman Aerosols

Adil is now Art Director for Oman Aerosols, a new unit of the Bhacker Suleman Jaffer group in Muscat, manufacturing aerosol products for Reckitt Benkiser. For Adil operating from Vancouver as Art and Web Designer at Dennis Banks LLC, USA, this is an interesting and challenging additional responsibility.

Michel scores his first movie music tracks

Hollywood, 28 January 2010

Michel just finished his first major music score for the upcoming feature documentary film A Good Day to Die, about Dennis Banks, a co-founder of the American Indian Movement (AIM). Rosa mixed and edited the dialog and they did the final sound mix together, while Adil in Vancouver is producing all the promotional material. The film is due to be released soon.

Michel and Adil land new contracts

Criterion Music Corp., one of the largest music publishing houses in the world, has decided to represent Michel following the release of his new album Dalai Lama Renaissance. And Adil has been contracted to develop the promotional material for a film about an historic member of the Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation of the Cappa Valley in California.

New Year Reunion in LA

Michel, Rosa, Farhad, Azura and Adil had a rollicking reunion in LA over the new year. Adil came down from Vancouver while Farhad, Azura and her doggie Augie flew in from Seattle. As a bonus they were able to get together with cousin Rahul, who lives in LA. Here are some pics....

Cousins-in-Arms

Mumbai, November 2009

Yes, catching up with my cousin Qays who has been missing in and around Bombay during the past 15 years since my last visit, WAS a wonderfully surreal experience and one I will always remember. Especially roaring around Mumbai on the back seat of his 6-cylinder Honda (my Volvo wagon is a puny 4) to take pictures. Not to mention his two dozen-plus collection of bikes, from among which I selected the 1954 Sunbeam as the one with my name on it. So I'm determined to keep him and other like-minded cousins within sight at all times!

Michel Update

Michel has composed music for the ashram scenes in Sony/Columbia Pictures' latest release Eat, Pray, Love starring Julia Roberts. August 13'th, when the film was released worldwide, was an important marker in Michel and Rosa's careers. Other film and television assignments for both Michel and Rosa keep coming in.

Michel has begun composing the music for a feature documentary about the urban farming movement in Detroit.

A Good Day to Die, the documentary on the legendary Native American leader Dennis Banks, for which Michel produced the music, had its world premier in June.

Meanwhile, to meet the industry's growing demand for outstanding music composition and production, Michel is using every spare moment to complete the construction of a new recording studio in North Hollywood.

Farhad Update

Characteristically, Farhad has been really busy this season! His recent events at Seattle's Nectar Lounge showcased US-based reggae bands Mystic Roots and Rise-n Shine, as well as his own Unite-One group in which he plays bass. He presented the legendary Third World group on the 5'th and 6th of August, showing his progression towards the musical big time. His Culture Yard Band will be performing at Seattle's humongous Hempfest 21-22 August.

The demand for Tall Grass Bakery's specialty breads is booming and Farhad has been clocking record sales in the farmers' markets around Seattle.

Adil Update
Adil is designer for the website and all publicity material for the film A Good Day to Die. Now based in Vancouver, BC, he is fully engaged in industrial CAD work as well as designing commercial websites.

Azura Update
Azura just graduated 4'th grade brilliantly! At year end, she had the lead part as King Leontes of the made up country of Sicilia in The Winters Tale by William Shakespeare. And now she's started a signature campaign against Seattle's plan to replace the rides at the Seattle Center with a glass museum... :) ;) :( :-) ;-) :-( Smiley/winking/frowning w/ noses faces by Azura HERSELF!!!! :O
