Free Music Review: VERY CATCHY!!! Teen's Review
Hit: 5 Stars
I love this CD. I've had it for almost a year and I still love it. The thing I like is that it's not just your ordinary reggae, some have different beats, I think all of them are in different languages from around the world. They all have very different sounds- kind of Arabian, some Indian, and African. Very neat. They all have such a great melody, you'll find yourself singing whatever the words sound like. I definitely reccomend this CD! It's amazing! My favorite song is Notre Devoir, it's probably the happiest and I also like Pas De Problems. Definitely buy this!!!
Putumayo Presents: World Reggae Poster
Reggae's crooning melodies, masculine bass lines, syncopated rhythms, and sensual spirituality makes it one of the most easily recognized, well-traveled styles in the African Diaspora. It has come a long way from its beginnings in Jamaica and the heyday of Bob Marley, but despite assorted depredations and ill-conceived interpolations, reggae still symbolizes an incongruous blend of fun, sex, good times, and social consciousness. It is always an education to hear what musicians from different cultures have made of this most malleable yet indelible of grooves. The most interesting permutations tend to be those that avoid mere imitation by incorporating strong local flavors. Thus, Apache Indian's Bhangra-laced version, with its breathy Bollywood-ish female choir and haunting woodwinds, Gnawa Diffusion's filigreed Arabic vocals, and Maria de Barrio's Cape Verdean morna-reggae make the strongest impressions. But other practitioners have chosen to recreate the good old days, and this Nigeria's Majek Fashek has certainly accomplished. --Christina RodenInternational Music CDs
