Created by Grateful Dead percussionist Mickey Hart and tabla virtuoso Zakir Hussain, this course offers mind-bending meditative sessions designed to bring you into the infinite now — that magical moment where you naturally experience love, peace, and clarity.

Music for Deep Relaxation & Reawakening

“A drone is a sonic miniature of the workings of the entire universe. They are complex sonic architecture.”

Each track mixes musical techniques old and new: traditional musical instruments such as the tabla, digitized rhythms of natural phenomena, sounds from Mickey’s extensive collection of global recordings, and underlying and weaving through it all: brain-entraining drones played on the Beams, a form of Pythagorean Monochord at various octaves.

Plane of Existence

“These visual representations from my sonic-driven world are snapshots into the music I am making. Painting feeds the music, and music feeds the painting.”

The course artwork was literally drummed and vibrated into existence in Mickey’s personal studio and then animated to pulse and flow with the music. The result is a mesmerizing experience akin to flying over alien landscapes or getting lost in the organic patterns of water, wood, and weather.

“We need tools for self-exploration. The drone allows us to rediscover our lighter, softer side in an often hostile world. It promotes happiness, compassion, and generates love. Drones are a uniting force, enhancing the health of body and soul.”

Music has a profound impact on the brain, and thus is also a profound method for healing. This course is not only intended to bring you into the present, but also as sonic medicine. You connect with the sound, and it releases you from the before and the after, which is where stress resides.

Physically you begin to feel your pulse, your brainwaves entrain to the rhythms, and you become a different organism than you were before you heard the sound. From this point, you can engage more fully in life. You get to dance a different dance.
