S3E4 - Hugo's Ode to Ishtar

Dr. Bruce Damer's Levity Zone

UK-Australian performer Hugo Farrant teams up with DJ Treats and enters the Levity Zone with his unique visionary rap. Hugo takes us back way before Eleusis to Mesopotamia's Spring Goddess Ishtar. We fall into his spell of words and music and journey as the grateful pilgrim in search of the divine feminine and our collective rejuvenation from Mother Nature herself. Hugo also raps with whimsical world band Dub The Magic Dragon, and PhD historian and musician Giordano Nanni, co-creator of Juice Rap News, a ship of the spoken word that pilots us through a cosmos of ideas. Hugo's own journeys have taken him afar, even featuring Mr. Julian Assange in a Rap News telling of the 2010 launch of Wikileaks' Iraq War Logs. Yours truly, Dr. Bruce was personally moved by Hugo and Treat's performance at the Rainbow Serpent Festival among the gum trees of Victoria, Australia and and thrilled to bring him and his mates to the Levity Zone.
