Mickey Hart • Planet Drum – Supralingua

Mickey Hart • Planet Drum – Supralingua

A boundary-breaking percussion journey, Supralingua brings together a global collective of rhythm masters under the vision of Mickey Hart. Expanding on the groundbreaking ethos of the Planet Drum, this release pushes deeper into the idea of rhythm as a universal language - fusing traditional drumming cultures with modern sampling, electronic manipulation, and experimental production.

Recorded with an extraordinary lineup including masters such as Zakir Hussain and Giovanni Hidalgo, the album spans continents in sound and spirit. Layers of djembe, tabla, congas, talking drums, and electronic textures collide and interlock, forming dense rhythmic ecosystems rather than conventional songs.

From the thunderous pulse of “Angola” to the hypnotic flow of “Wheel Of Time” and the intricate sonic collage of “Indoscrub,” Supralingua feels less like a traditional album and more like an immersive ritual - constantly shifting, evolving, and pulsing with life.

The bonus remixes further reinterpret these rhythmic foundations through the lens of electronic pioneers, extending the album’s reach into dub, techno, and experimental sound design.

A landmark in global percussion music, Supralingua is a deep, immersive listening experience that dissolves borders between cultures, genres, and time itself.
