“Superstar techno DJ”, “electronic music wizard”: Jeff Mills, together with Indo-French tabla player Prabhu Edouard, and French keyboardist Jean-Phi Dary travel to the mythic isle of Delos to play a concert – without a live audience, but filled with the light and air of the Mediterranean – at the Temple of Isis. This mystical place seems to stir and come back to life under the musical spells cast by Mills. The small Doric temple, surrounded by the waters of the Aegean, is transformed by sounds created in the here and now.
This musical journey was filmed by the director Christos Sarris to be screened on the Onassis Channel on YouTube. After Charlotte de Witte at Ancient Messene, here comes a new audio-visual experience that unfolds at a timeless, monumental site and invites us to celebrate a renewed zest for life.

“Live at Delos Island was a dream-like experience. The geographical location, the situation and the goal are not things that I would consider normal. It was layers of journeys that would eventually bring the three of us to the praise of nature, history and a higher level of consciousness. As with any team of explorers, where each person plays a significant role in the process, this was no different. The cosmic chemistry of traveling with veteran keyboardist Jean-Phi Dary and tabla master Prabhu Edouard accumulated in something poetic, which was until this occasion, only imagined as an extension of what the late great drummer Tony Allen and I initiated. We improvised our musical course together – as one musical vessel. And this is the purpose of Tomorrow Comes the Harvest. It is the means to reach, explore and grow creatively, without compromise or preconceived ideas about what needs to be done. The concept is about proposing freedom and thinking openly. After this experience, it is hard to imagine that each of us is the same person we were before we traveled to Delos. I have the sense that something was advanced and elevated.” –Jeff Mills
