Freaky Chakra emerged out of the San Francisco underground after a chance introduction to Exist Dance head Mike Kandel (a.k.a. Tranquility Bass) through mutual friend Miguel Fierro (a.k.a. Single Cell Orchestra). Kandel liked Daum Bentley's demo, and in the summer of 1993, Exist Dance released Halucifuge / Transcendental Funk Bump, which became an underground hit. He followed this single with the March Of The Tangent, EP and the full-length Lowdown Motivator, and Blacklight Fantasy, as well as a collaboration with Single Cell Orchestra.
