Various Artists

This down- to mid-tempo collection features musicians taking elements of their culture and history and making sense of them by fusing diverse instrumentation into their sonic creations. Whether it be with the skilled classical guitar work in an electronic palette; ancient tabla and Indian melodies with bass-heavy cadence; or a dubbed African landscape and indigenous Australian instruments into solid beats… the old and new are beautifully indistinguisable in this unique and diverse CD where each song invokes a quiet, though inspired reflection of a hectic world trying to find a bit of peace.
