Not sure if this has been discussed before round these parts, but I recently got a copy of this and it's fantastic.
The phrase "World Music" doesn't often light my candle, but when you've got something as diverse as this it can't fail to intrigue at least.
It's a project by Jamie Catto from Faithless and a guy called Duncan Bridgeman who, apparently was Take That's producer (!)
But some of the collaborations are sublime - Baba Maal, Eddi Reader, Robbie Williams (yup, it works) and even Kurt Vonnegut.
Lush, ambient, ethnic techno beats. And eminently listenable - not just as background music but actually to absorb.
Anyone else heard this? |
