BBC Radio DJ Charlie Gillett complied this time capsule of 2003 world music hits/artists. There’s a broad variety of sounds from both familiar (Manu Chao, Orchestra Baobab) and lesser-known (Noir Desir, Sui Vesan) artists. All tracks are worthy of a play, but these are my personal favorites (for what it’s worth): Disc 1: 1. Low-key French rock w/a catchy melody. 3. Contemporary Flamenco w/a fast dance break & fem. vocals. 4. Electronic lounge w/sexy French vocals. 7. Brassy Italian, down tempo w/cool male vocals. 9. Uptempo Turkish w/fem. vox & strong beat. 10. Crazy fast Spanish party song w/touch of Zydeco. 14. South African vocal harmonies w/a relaxed kind of joy. 15. Mid-tempo, melodic Iraqi w/a bouncy sort of feeling. 16. Beautiful female Fado. 17. Uptempo Arabic pop w/ vocal duet. Disc 2: 1. Great contemporary Russian folk/rock. Uptemo. 4. Fem vox/blend of trad & mod instru. Hypnotic. 6. Fem vox/guitar. Relaxed folk/rock . 9. Kora, perc, vocals. Mid/uptempo Malian. 10. Fast Mexican folk w/great strings/perc/vocals. 11. Sweet & low-key w/gentle male vox & perc. 13. Kora/orchestra/Malian version of James Brown classic. 14. Smooth & sexy Latin jazz w/warm piano & fem. vox. 15. Afro-Latin jazz w/tight arrangements. Mid-tempo. 18. Live track w/Manu Chao reggae weirdness. 9/2003 | ||
