An unusual ensemble mixes flamenco, Indian classical and modern music with heady questions of personal and political issues, music, as the band says, 'that reads the newspaper.' An original sound, adventurous but rooted in traditions from around the world, and not a hint of "world-beat' or 'world fusion.'...guitarist Sacha Silva with multi-instrumentalist Andrew Morgan and vocalist Munya B, the CD is a unique blend of flamenco, Indian classical and modern music, with lyrics sung in Hindi and Bengali. ..."Anatomy of a Coup" represents a new kind of world music: one which respects the cultural origins of melodies and rhythms while endlessly combining and recombining them to create new shapes and ideas; one which speaks to a new generation of global wanderers, travelers, immigrants, expats and half-breeds.
an experimental psychedelic rock ensemble. internationally flavoured experimentation...the album dives from acoustic ethnicity with Urdu poetry through beer-inspired ambient Indo-fusion and shortwave radio percussivity to the 'sixties freak sounds of "Cosmic Four Dots." Possibly LSD was involved in the making of the final track (the text hints as much), "Konkona Sen Sharma," a 21 minute epic of tanpura, piano, Nepali drum, violin and harmonium that sounds like Brian Eno chilling in Varanasi. This album is very good indeed; recommended to all those who love crossing the world of the wings of music, it would be particularly good accompanied by a refreshing brew as the morning sun rises...
Antone and Adnan (Antonio Albarran and Robin Anders) are at it again, connecting with the inner rhythms of the universe and using them to transport their listeners through the cosmos with multiple world drums, Bouzouki and Octave Mandolins, Indian Tabla and Flutes and more....The Darbuki Kings have found a winning combination of traditional sounding Middle Eastern music and jazz on Been Laden You Too Long.
Nothing is more evocative of the fascinating expanses of the Sahara desert than the music of Tartit, a Tuareg band consisting of five women and four men residing in the Timbuktu region (Mali). Unlike that other renowned Tuareg band, Tinariwen, Tartit play quiet, hypnotic, trance-inducing music: the women sit down, sing, and play cyclic rhythms on their tinde drums, while the men accompany them on string instruments, acoustic and electric. The men are veiled, the women aren't. Tuareg society is one of the few throughout Africa in which women are allowed to choose (and divorce) their husbands.

Canadian producer/singer/songwriter Koushik's first proper full-length, Out My Window, is serene 1960s psych-pop filtered through a cratedigger's collage of samples. Choice tidbits of soul, pop, and indie rock are separated from their sources, drenched in reverb, thickened with old-school hip-hop beats, and then dusted with Koushik's own languid vocals. It's a candyland of lilting psychedelic moods and stoner nostalgia where songs undulate, shift form, and drool into one another.
Bassekou Kouyate is a virtuoso of the ngoni (West African lute), approximating the larger kora (West African harp) in sound but with a tougher, more percussive edge. Outside his home country of Mali, where he is widely celebrated, Kouyate is known for his work with artists like the late guitarist Ali Farka Toure?he was featured on Toure's posthumous album Savane (World Circuit, 2006)?kora player Toumani Diabete and American roots musician Taj Mahal...Kouyate's band, Ngoni Ba ("the big ngoni") is a quartet of ngoni players?treble, mid range and bass?augmented by Kouyate's wife, Ami Sacko, on lead vocals, and two percussionists.
