d2b bhakta productions

 
d2b bhakta productions d2b means 'Directions to Bliss' and is the project name for the CDs that Bhakta produces with a number of musicians from all over the world.

These CDs are produced for the My Master Music label.  The idea of d2b was born while Bhakta was recording in the late hours at the music studio at Osho's Ashram in Poona India.  Many great singers and musicians come to visit the ashram and play together.  The aim is to bring the best moments to you, the moments when the artist has disappeared into silence, when a fragrance of the unknowable becomes audible.

Some of the artists that d2b has woked with include: Maneesh ( Indian Slide Guita)r, Bharam (Santur / Nay/ Voice), Avinash (Indian Violin Tamasan / Voice), Millind (Bamboo flute), Rashmi (Voice), Agar (Shakuhachi), Nadama (Piano), Antar (Sitar), Chirag (Veena).

bhakta (ARCHIVE)

 
bhakta (ARCHIVE) Bhakta was born in Holland in 1960 and raised in his grandparents' home as a member of a tumultuous extended family.  His childhood resembled more of a gypsy circus than a proper Dutch upbringing, and was an ideal setting for music, painting, experimentation and communication.

At age 15, Bhakta left home for India to explore meditation, and subsequently lived for 10 years in India and three in Japan. Those years of meditation became the backbone of his music. The influences of Eastern cultures and his own path in life wind into the world of sound through his unique style of classical-chill, experimental-ambient, and electronic-dance music.

Following a successful career in the 90s as a producer and mixing engineer in Europe, Bhakta moved deep into the rainforests of Eastern Australia near Byron Bay, where his time is now devoted to creating music for the dancing soul.

Bhakta recently won two Australian Dolphin awards.  He received an award in the world music category and the second was from the aboriginal community: koori achievement award, which is said to be a welcoming of the Native Spirit.  He was also nominated for the production/engineering Dolphin Award.

disha (ARCHIVE)

Born in Germany in 1969, Disha traveled overland with her mother from Munich to Bombay in '77, and spent her childhood years living in India with the enlightened mystic, Osho.  She lived in the USA and in Italy in her teens, always at home traveling the world, until '96 when she settled in Australia.

She has spent the last ten years exploring both her passion for music and love for working with people in leading singing workshops, Path Of Love Intensives and youth seminars worldwide.  In '97 back in India she studied the ancient art of Drupad-singing with the world-known vocalist Sayeed'uddin Dagar, from 'the Dagar Brothers'. 

The combination of a life of meditation with Osho, the devotional style of Drupad, and her many western influences of music - Sarah McLachlan, Morcheeba, Lauryn Hill, Everything But the Girl, Lamb, Alanis Morissette – inspired her to start writing songs on the guitar, working on her own music at home in the Wilson's Creek rainforest near Byron Bay, Australia.

Collaborating with the Dutch-born musician and producer Bhakta, she devoted her heart & soul to recording a debut album, Drowning In Grace.  Disha and Bhakta are performing around Australia, and Disha just got nominated for a Dolphin Award for best Female Vocalist in NSW, Australia.  She is also studying in Brisbane, getting a degree in Counselling and is offering Youth Seminars, in Byron Bay.
