Mejdaji recordings are of unique hand drumming styles, ensembles, and tribal trance dance rhythms, electro-acoustic rhythms, vocal toning and chanting composition, fusion / world music compositions, experimental sounds and approaches, healing composition and sound, insightful and self exploratory lyrics.
None of these CD’s are like the safely sugar coated over produced music you find dominating the new age music market, which can come across as superficial. It is unique, more raw and pure in essence and execution.
New CD release completed beginning of February 2008 incorporating sound/singing bowls, some vocal toning, and other instruments. It is healing/cleansing audio meditations through sound art experimentations. It is a very relaxing yet powerful listening/healing experience. This CD is volume 1 in a series.

Musical History:
Mejdaji aka James Edward Garcia has performed and recorded many solo albums originally under the name Dimthings .. & later the name developed into Dimthingshine ..during the 1980's - early 1990's. The music was in the vein of prog rock / art rock mixed with jazz, funk, electronics, avant-garde, experimental, new music. As a multi-instrumentalist, many of these recordings were performed all by Dimthingshine. Some of these recordings have been re-mastered and re-issued on CD on the Thingsflux Music label. James has recently started recording once again as Dimthingshine and completed a CD project in January 2008.
He had played drums / percussion in many bands in every type style imaginable.. most notibly prog avant-jazz band "Ulterior Lux" & art alt noise band "Scraping Teeth". Had performed mostly in South Florida, but also in Europe, Connecticut, & New York. Had done several projects with bassist Jean Chaine. Did the soundtrack to a low budget movie.
Mejdaji aka James Edward Garcia has also started to record his own rock and roll music. He released a Full length CD and EP on the Thingsflux Music label in 2007 singing and playing everything himself. For this musical project he goes by the artist name: Dimthingshineon.
Had spent several years delving into Metaphysical - Occult - Spiritual - Religious studies. This lead to his interest in creative music again.. but from an esoteric, mystical, healing arts approach.

.... Come join the celebration over the release of our new CD – Boteco!! ‘Boteco’ is an artful mixture of neo-futuristic traditional Brazilian rhythms with the right quantity of the best North American/World spices. It is funk and rock boiling and baking with samba, maracatu, frevo and baiao. Put Pele and Mohammed Ali in a fictional mix machine. Now add Frank Zappa, Sergio Mendes, Tom Jobim and Roger Waters and fused in to one. What a mix eh? Bat Makumba is this fusion, multiplied by 2.

I just wanted to stop by and share this opportunity with you!! Feel free to drop me a line anytime, I'd love to hear from you!
Hey Mejdaji, Thanks for the friendship! How are things in New York? It's finally Summer here in Milwaukee as the earth has completed its seasonal shift on its axis. I saw you were a friend of Deepak Chopra's, so I thought you might be interested in a new healthy Ayurvedic beverage and ground floor home-based business he's endorsing called Zrii, which features the healing Amalaki fruit from the Himalayas. I hope this finds you well. Have a great week! Wishing you peace, love, and prosperity, Paul Kuhn Cellocaster, Violin, Vocals, Zrii Milwaukee via Aspen via D.C.
