Dakah features all of the strings and winds necessary for a symphonic sound and then augments them with an electric rhythm section, percussion, turntables, aggressive guitars, a vocal chorus and MC’s.
“dAKAH blends thick beats with breakbeat-worthy soul, jazz, funk, rock, classical, symphonic fat sh@t. Bringing it to you thoroughly live, fresh from the guts, hearts and brainstems of Dakonductor Geoff ‘Double G’ Gallegos and 80-or-so of our closest musical friends.”
