Album Notes

"Lo" by The Smiling Buddhas is an aural travelogue through the "hidden" kingdom of Mustang (Lo) in Nepal.

A driving, hypnotic and vibrant trip of sheer beauty!
Sometimes The Smiling Buddhas add powerful, heavy distorted or elegant beats to express the bodies reaction in thin air ("Dizzy In High Altitude"), step climbs up to high passes ("Up, Up, Slowly,Slowly") and open hearted dance parties ("Friendly Dhee").
The piece starts with a flight through the deepest gorge in the world ("Into The Gorge") and ends with the chime of holy bells from Muktinath ("Muktinath") & ("End Of The Kora").
