Bio
Basquerole is world music's answer to Kruder and Dorfmeister. Their original lush, exotic melodies and harmonies evocative of India, Afghanistan, Egypt, Turkey, India, Spain, and Morocco play off of euphoric electronic grooves and ambient textures. This is music to trance, dance, and to celebrate the universal sound of the spheres... .. ....Basquerole on iTunes:.... .. .... .. .. .... .. .. .... .. .. .... .. .. .... .. .. .... .. .. .... .. .. .... .. .. .... .. .. .... .. .. .... .. .. .... .. .. .... .. .. .... .. .. .... .. .. .... .. .. .... .. .. .... .. .. .... .. .. .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. -

10 of 32MoreDear Friends,
After years of working on the East-West thing, I am really happy to announce the release of my new CD recording project, Silk Road Blues, on a great label, Flowfish Records. This music explores the possibilities of Afghan rebab with piano and jazz. Three pieces are up on my profile right now. I'd be grateful to hear some feedback from you.
Best wishes,
Larry

I am proud to be part of the campaign to put the California Democracy Act on the ballot. This measure needs to collect thousands of signatures by April 5th, and several California musicians are helping this campaign by providing free downloads of our music from now until then signature gathering deadline. If you click on my picture on the left, then click on the image called “Tyranny of the Minority” in my top friends, you will find a link to a page that includes not only one of my songs, but lots of other very cool music in a variety of styles. The featured musicians include world fusion pioneers Ancient Future, Paraguayan Harpist Carlos Reyes and his Electric Symphony, an historic collaboration between Raga Maestro Ali Akbar Khan and Bollywood superstar Ashe Bhosle, Funky Rhythm and Blues by Rude Notes Galore, Didjeridu master Stephen Kent with his groups Baraka Moon and Australian Bebop Ragas, and many others. There’s literally something here for everybody, and you’ll never get a better chance to discover some new and exciting music.
We donated our music because we want to encourage you to go the website that explains why this is so important. This site also provides downloadable petitions that can be printed out and mailed directly to the campaign office, and forwarded as an email attachment to other California voters. We think that once you learn how the 2/3 rule has been destroying California’s Infrastructure (including the Schools, the parks, the California Arts Council, and all other state funding to the arts), you’ll want to help support this straightforward measure consisting of fourteen words “All legislative actions on revenue and budget must be determined by a majority vote.”
Inside our minds, locked in our bodies we watch what our limited eyes allow us to see. Our biology is limiting us. In time the technological will allow us to break those limits.
