Nanang Tatang was a collaboration between Daniel Littleton and Elizabeth Mitchell, co-founders of the NYC band Ida, created for them to explore sounds and structures that were not right for proper Ida records. In fits and starts over a three year period, Liz and Dan recorded Muki at their home studio ON-ME SOUND. The time off from performing gave Mitchell and Littleton the space to experiment, and Muki began humbly enough from Littleton’s rudimentary attempts to engineer and use a drum machine. At times peaceful and meditative, at other times unsettling in its emotional directness, Muki was a very interesting divergence from what many Ida fans had come to expect from Littleton and Mitchell.
