As a special treat for fans headed to Boulder, CO for Hanuman Festival, Dub Kirtan All Stars and Govinda have teamed up on a mantra-fueled mash-up of "Om Namah Shivaya" and "Sonic Muse."

On Friday (June 12), after a jam-packed day of activities, the yogis, speakers, and flexible folk from all over the city will descend upon the Boulder Theater for a night of bass-injected kirtan. DKAS is the brainchild of legends David Starfire and FreQ Nasty, who wanted to bring devotional music to the club and festival space with an intense, live feel.

The original DKAS track features Arjun Baba and Claire Thompson, who provide the sonic architecture for the producers to pinch and pull and prod into place with Govinda's "Sonic Muse." Shane Madden's strings and glitchy wobbles blend perfectly with those melodious voices.

David Starfire returns to the Boulder Theater the following night (Saturday, June 13) with high-flying performance troupe Lucent Dossier Experience. The whole weekend is devoted to yoga, spirituality, and family-friendly fun! Learn more at www.hanumanfestival.com.
