The disc comes in a fold-out card package: the front carries Javiera Estrada's artwork, the inner panels list every track alongside its guest performers, and the back reprints the album's liner text above the tracklist. The rear credit states that the master recording is licensed exclusively to Black Swan Sounds of Boulder, Colorado.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesert Dwellers is the production partnership of Amani Friend and Treavor Moontribe, founded in 1999 out of the Moontribe gatherings. The duo's own notes call Breath the fourth elemental entry in their Downtemple Dub collection, setting slow house grooves and tribal rhythms against global folk melodies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore than 20 musicians and vocalists appear across the ten tracks. Meagan Chandler sings in Gaelic, Spanish, Arabic and Welsh on different pieces, and Ricardin contributes Persian vocals to \"Traversing The Endless Road.\" Madi Sato sings in Japanese on \"Longing For Home,\" set over shakuhachi and Koji Nakamura's taiko drums. Paul Livingstone plays sitar on \"Closed Eyes In A Dust Storm,\" Pandit Birju Maharaj is credited with vocals on \"One That Shows The Way,\" and Simon Posford adds chanting to \"Realms Of Splendor.\" The closing \"Breathing The Mysteries\" pairs Lynda Arnold's swarmandal with spoken word from Darpan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFriend and Moontribe produced every track. The album was mixed by Justin Gariano at TreeHaus Recording and mastered at GZ Mastering, with graphic design by Gonzalo Rescalvo. It went on to seed a run of remix collections; Breath: Portal to Stillness, from 2022, is described by the duo as the fourth of them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePraise Her, The Fire Keeper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDreams Within A Dream\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraversing The Endless Road\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClosed Eyes In A Dust Storm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne That Shows The Way\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAt Last, Our Refuge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTo Be The Air\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLonging For Home\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRealms Of Splendor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBreathing The Mysteries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 717147073421\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black Swan Sounds\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.26.19\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Black Swan Sounds","offers":[{"title":"NEW \/ NEW","offer_id":67525239636126,"sku":"EVP-FFA394B1-NEW-NEW-NONE0000","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/8801\/1422\/files\/0016202940_10.jpg?v=1794009877","url":"https:\/\/evergreenvinyl.com\/products\/desert-dwellers-breath-cd","provider":"Evergreen Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
