Cool world music grooves -
Manu Dibango - Ah! Freak Sans Fric
Asma Hamzaoui & Bnat Timbouktou - Allal
New Moroccan trance music.
Ustad Saami - God Is
Surti music master Ustad. Surti is a vocal tradition that reaches back to the 13th century, and of which he is the last surviving heir. Karachi based Saami sings Surti in multiple languages using a self-devised system that involves a mind-scrambling 49 notes to the octave.
Backed by tanpura, harmonium and tablas, Saami sings with multiple accompanying voices, rising in front of them with electrifying force and terrifying beauty. Precious, melancholy valedictions for a 1000 years of sound.
Enjoy
