Flamenco finds its mid-eastern roots. Percussionist Ramzy teams up w. German flamenco guitarist. Very complex, muilt-level songs w/ North African, Spanish, and Middle-Eastern influences. Solid and substantial fare. 1. Mid-tempo guitar, clapping, oud, multi-layered percussion. 2. Bellydance perc., pensive oud & violin. Nice guitar solo. North Afr. Feel. 3. Slow, emphatic guitar, clapping later intensifies. More trad. flamenco. 4. Driving perc., jazzy feel, intense violin interplays w/ oud, guitar. 5. Mid-tempo Ethereal oud, grows into violin/guitar piece. Blends Spain & N. Africa. 6. March-like rhythm w/ winding guitar, oud. 7. Flowing, soaring violin piece. Slow, pretty. 8. Solo oud, then bellydance rhythm w/ guitar and pipes soloing on top. Complex. 9. Pensive flamenco, many pauses, picks up steady, slow beat, which then speeds up. 10. Indian male/fem vox, syllabic chanting. 11. N. Afr. perc., oud, wailing, catchy violin. 12. Slow, stately guitar & percussion, later speeds up. 13. Bellydance rhythm tightly interlaced w/ guitar & violin. Interesting use of percussive pauses. | ||
