...THE GIG SESSIONS is by invitation only, not-for-profit, and by donations only private music and art retreat of Kamakhya Records where artists on invitation travel to Assam, stay together, share knowledge and tips, collaborate, and make music and art together on the fly where the NOW, the present moment is the inspiration...
...The first edition of THE GIG SESSIONS 1.0 was a joint effort of Kamakhya Records, Paat Halodhiya, Spot-Les, and many more who came to share their love, energy, and expertise to create a space where the following artists collaborated:-
1. Fat Freddy (Bangalore)
2. DemonkoЯe (Kozhikode)
3. H A R ! (Bangalore)
4. Psy Didge (Bangalore)
5. Rishi Bora (Guwahati)
5. LIVE ART by Satabdi Saikia (Guwahati)

Thank You to Paat Halodhiya for hosting us and creating a beautiful safe space for the artists to collaborate without any worries. Thank You Jahir at Spot-Les for helping us with the sound equipment and your unconditional support. Thank You, Bishnu for being there for Kamakhya Records always and Bigwala shoutout to Rishi Bora who came to jam with his Rav Vast.

SAMPLES RECORDED/ USED:
The collaborators recorded several audio samples during the Gig sessions - recitation of Hiren Bhattacharya's (the G.O.A.T of Assamese poetry) poem মোৰ দেশ (My Country) by Satabdi Saikia, early morning & early evening bird songs and people at work @ Paat Halodhiya Farm, sounds of the villagers nearby Paat Halodhiya Farm creating a ruckus to keep the wild elephants away from their crop ready to be harvested (Psy Didge, one of the collaborators, saw wild elephants while recording sounds 😄😄), the meditative sounds of the Rav Vast played by Rishi Bora and Bishnu Saikia shared audio samples from his research work - "Goa Trance - a convergence" - which was his doctorate thesis from Guwahati University. His research work touches upon the history and evolution of Goa Trance and its connection with shamanistic traditions with a special focus on the shamanistic traditions of Assam and Northeast India.
The samples shared by Bishnu were :
1. Ojapali - a shamanistic folk dance and storytelling tradition of Assam - an ode to the feminine entity Manasa worshipped in Assam and Bengal.
2. Urs songs sung in Assam to commemorate the death anniversary of Sufi saint Moinuddin Chishti in a dialect spoken only in Assam and Bangladesh.
