World Beat Music Gone Mainstream In A Good Way! Submitted on: 2009-11-12 |
|
| World Beat Music Gone Mainstream In A Good Way! ... Track #1. Pounding percussion - "recycled" or otherwise - along with atmospheric vocals. Think: BLUE MAN GROUP or STOMP or CONCUSSION ENSEMBLE with techno keyboards, munchkin background vocals, and great, haunting, lead vocals contra punted by female vocal rapping on beat! ... Track #2. Good groove. Acoustic, tribal percussion embedded with electric, techno synthesizer sounds. Ambient, Native-American, live, background vocals. ... Track #3. Ambient, acoustic, steel-string guitar, Indian sitars, Indian tablas, and acoustic percussion alongside synthesized orchestral swaths of mighty waves of sound that wash over your sonic senses with persuasive power, backed-up by atmospheric female vocals blended into the mix way off in the background. Jews harp on steroids, indeed! ... Track #4. It kind of sounds like what Madonna would sound like if she adopted Mick Jagger's accent and went world-beat with Pink Floyd's chorus of kids from "THE WALL." ... Track #5. Eubie Blake boogie-woogie piano playing - on ecstasy! Cool bass line. Herbie Hancock-like synth sounds ala "HEADHUNTERS" era. Great groove! More cool, rap-like vocals that don't overpower the music but melt into it in a gestalt of global-trekking, sonic adventurism. ... Track #6. Okay, we all know that traditional, Indian music is real raga-like and moksha-mantra-like. But combine that with modern, digital sampling, groove / loop-making, and techno beat production, and you create a whole `nother hybrid of a sound wave - especially when the wailing vocals are combined with hip hop lyrical sensibilities! You got it? ... You will! ... Track #7. Dorothy, Ravi Shankar is no longer in Kansas, either! Walter and Wendy Carlos have come over for dinner, and they have both dropped 500 micrograms of pure, Sandoz lysergic acid diethylamide-25. You dig? ... Jeff Lynn is also there with his Electric Light Orchestral Maneuvers in the Darkness of the dawn. ... GROK! ... Track #8. Very beautiful and moving! Female vocal caresses your heart and soothes your soul, while ambient, sonic sound waves of shimmering melodies and rhythms massage your lower chakras. Nice acoustic guitar, too. Subliminal bass. Atmospheric synthesizer sounds of Indian instruments mix-in with tamboura and sarod. ... Track #9. Feel the heat / beat, and stomp your feet down on the 1 and the 3, while you clap your hands together on the 2 and the 4, along to the techno, world-beat hybrid of primitive grooves sped-up a notch by modern electronic recording machinery. It's a digital new age. It's a new world order of maximum beats per second exponentially magnified by sub-woofer power amps set to the max! ... Track #10. The same goes for this one - only even faster! ... Imagine Donald Duck dancing under the influence of Coca-Cola before they were forced to change their ingredients formula by the law! You get the picture. ... Track #11. Sexy. Hip-hoppy. Wordy. Other-worldly. Sultry. Hollywoody. ... A bit boring, maybe? Maybe not?! ... Track #12. Acoustic guitar. Simple percussion. Choral vocals. Ambient keyboards. Gentle, swaying beat. Beautiful, female, lead singing. ... Track #13. Lots of talking. Lots of singing. Jubilant. Joyous. Anthemic. Epilogic. Very Eastern. Very orchestral. ... The beat goes on! ... YOWZA! - George Koumantzelis / The Aeolian Kid |

A few good songs... Submitted on: 2009-08-31 |
|
| A few good songs esp. the remixes of MIA. A.R. Rehman has done better on other movies but these are good and accessible to a broader audience. |

Pleased with the item only Submitted on: 2009-06-05 |
|
| I ordered this item and paid an additional amount for expedited shipping. There is nothing to support the idea that the seller did anything to expedite the shipping. As long as it took to get this, I think I could have ordered regular shipping. I'm disappointed by what appears to me to be the seller dragging their feet in getting this out. I would have thought that it would have been shipped right away but records indicate thatit was not. |
