Free Music Review: Afro Celts - Seed
Hit: 5 Stars
This is the fourth album I've enjoyed from Afro Celts; their blend of African rhythms and Celtic instrumentation is a joy, and never becomes boring - I've used this music as background in my classes, and my students inevitably ask me where they can get it! You can get lost in these songs, and catch yourself humming the melodies long after. I highly recommend any and all of their music to fans of ambient and world music.
Seed Poster
In 1996, the Afro-Celt Sound System formed a sound clash that mixed Irish music, dance floor grooves, West African percussion, and the kora. While there were highlights, often with help from high profile singing guests like Sinead O'Connor and Peter Gabriel, the albums were fragmented. Now the members have shortened their name to the AfroCelts for their forth album, declaring that the Sound System isn't applicable because they've evolved into a more conventional and fully formed group. The change sounds radical, but it's really just a refinement in their working relationship and songwriting skill. Consequently, Seed holds together more strongly as an album. The songs are more consistently crafted and sonically rich here, with different voices and instruments coming to the fore, but never outshining the greater whole. Highlights include the blues slide guitar-driven title track, the wholly acoustic (which is a first!) and Irish jig-inspired "Ayob's Song/As You Were," and the Radiohead-influenced "All Remains." --Tad HendricksonInternational Music CDs
