Namaste India. Transculture. $7.00
Composed by Laurent Dury and Michel Guay. |
|
Transculture has put
together a series of experiences, approaching and meeting
different cultures. These musical works naturally express our
perception and our interpretation pf other people's culture ....
but they also evoke the qualities that this relation has aroused
within ourselves.
The history of India and the history of its music are linked
together. The Indian Music such as we know today, originates from
cultural and artistic traditions over thousands of years, carried
over from generations to generations. The word is music. The
sacred recited poems develop the musical expression and the
syllables are the notes. The emotions which is thus created become
the Devine support and its cosmic image surrounds the mysteries of
nature and the hidden aspects of human nature. |

is the leading light of the burgeoning Asian Underground movement
- in other words, man of many parts. He brings them all together
here ..... the Bollywood strings, the kannakol patterns of
Indian Music, and the skittering rhythms of drum & bass and jungle
- to create something that is new and thoroughly vibrant. This is
Britain at the Millenium, drawing on its immigrants, full Eastern
Promise and ready to dive headlong into the future.
An album of both intelligence and passion, it is more than OK :
It's a complete marvel. |

Ekatman is a musical dimension that Pt. Ronu Majumdar and Louis
Banks envisioned and worked towards fruition. Even though all the
tracks on the album have been composed by the mastery of Louis
Banks and Pt. Ronu Majumdar, the listener will relate to the

Ibteda. By Impulse.
$7.00 |
|
Enlightening fusion echoes from India.
A brilliant group of
musicians from Kolkata, in more ways than one has created a
deep impact with its leading fusion band named 'Impulse'.
Deriving inspiration from Indian Classical Music & different
world music genre. 'Impulse' has come out with a malange of
the flavour of sound & music.With the idea of popularizing
the different moods and colours of Indian music amongst
youth, Impulse sounds completely different from its other
contemporary bands.
The ensemble of Tabla, Ghattam, Duff, Congo, Drum and other
Tibetan and Chinese percussion instruments with the extra
ordinary co-ordination of Guitar, Santoor, and Sarangi gives
the real essence of global music. The touch of traditional
Folk, Sufi music and African tribal rhythm gives the band a
new dimension. |

contemporary music.
This particular compilation, a "Best of Shakti", attempts to give
the listener a nice representation of what Shakti sounded like.

Remember Shakti. Saturday in Bombay. $7.00 |
|
| These
recordings come from December 2000, when Remember Shakti was
playing concerts in Bombay at the end of a world tour. It's
clearly the occasion for celebration, with the group expanding to
include several guests, but it's distinguished by the same quality
that has graced their live performances and the previous CD, The
Believer: a hypnotic luminosity that enfolds flights of
extraordinary virtuosity and sustained dialogue into a tranquil
whole. That mood is further enhanced here by the setting, the
layered polyrhythms of multiple drummers, and the singing of
Shankar Mahadevan. The wedding of East and West is most apparent
in McLaughlin's sprightly 'Luki,' with the guitarist's harmonies
specifically invoking jazz. 'Shringar,' nearly 27 minutes long, is
played by a quartet, with its composer Shiv Kumar Sharma on santur,
a Persian zither. Beginning in a sustained meditative stillness,
it eventually builds to one of McLaughlin's most brilliant solos.
As they have in the past, McLaughlin and Hussain again give new
meaning and possibilities to the idea of 'world music.'

Remember Shakti. The Believer. $7.00 |
|
The Musicians would like to dedicate this CD to the Loving Memory
of Ustad Allarakha.
The energy
of this recording is simply fantastic ; you can get lost in the
almost singular voice that the 4 players manage to create, and the
sounds here contain that same seductive power and energy
characteristic of traditional Indian music.
McLaughlin is the chameleon here; as opposed to what you may
think, this isn't the jazz/fusion McLaughlin we all know, blowing
lines over a background - his time exploring the spiritual and
musical side of Indian Culture over a quarter century ago are
apparent here, and his lines are so authentic to the setting that
you would swear the Englishman grew up in Northern India.

Remember Shakti. 2 CD Set.
This CD is a Rare Collectors Item.
$10.00 |
|
| Earthy
percussive rhythms. Airy flute. Softly filtered guitar. Shakti's
triumphant 1997 return to live performance was cause for
celebration indeed; founder John McLaughlin and tabla master Zakir
Hussain remained from the original lineup, with a few new friends
jumping on board to continue the Indian/Jazz Fusion the group had
perfected so well in the 70's. The overall mood here was softer and
more reflective than usual - the presence of guest Pandit
Hariprasad Chaurasia on bansuri flute made the affair much lighter
and more meditative, and this album mostly left out the incredible
instrumental pyrotechnics that made their original debut such a
blazing firecracker of an album. |

Shakti with John McLaughlin.
Natural Elements.
$10.00 |
|
| Natural
Elements was the final Shakti album in the 1970s [recently,
McLaughlin resurrected his explorations with these musicians minus
Shankar with the 1998 live double-disc Remember Shakti]. It is
also, to these ears, the best Shakti release. The group stretches
their range and representation of moods like never before. Here
the poppy [well, as much as you're gonna get with this group],
laid-back "Happiness is Being Together" walks hand in hand with
the fiery runs of "The Daffodil and the Eagle." The driving feel
of a savanna at high-noon conjured by "Mind Ecology" eventually
gives way to the soft, evening winds of "Peace of Mind." For prog
fans who aren't aware of what astonishingly precise rhythmic
technique Indian musicians can possess, give a good listen to the
last part of "Get Down and Sruti." |

Zen. Rahul
Sharma.
$7.00 |
|
The word "Zen" is an abbreviation of the Japanese "Zenna"
[ literally, "quiet mind concentration" ]
and is the name of a form of Buddhism introduced from India to
Japan via China in the 12 th century.
This album
uses the fluid nature of reality to weave sounds that are not
bound by the strict rigours of Indian classical music. In Zen,
Rahul Sharma's aim is to create a meditative mood that is not
restricted by the boundaries of a traditional Indian classical
Raga. The sounds themselves are easy-flowing melodies merging, for
instance, the classical Santoor with that of electronic
instruments, allowing a full array of sounds to engulf the
meditative listener. |
