Free Music Review: Tribal Fires: Native American Music
Hit: 4 Stars
This is one in a series of CDs concentrating on Native American Music with a modern bent. The diversity of the music and the addition of modern arrangements and instrucmentation removes the music from the 'authentic' sound of Native American music but makes the selection more availale to those with limited exposure to this type of music. I would suggest that an individual listen to samples of these CDs as many of the selections on the sets are duplicates of each other. Listening to the selections will give a much richer interpretation of the diversity and quality of Native American music
Tribal Fires: Contemporary Native American Music Poster
This collection of Native American music manages to avoid a lot of the problems common in compilations of this type. It lacks the new-age trappings of too much reverb and electronic "nature sounds." It focuses, instead, on contemporary songwriters with modern themes. Featured artists include Gerry Alfred, Robert Mirabal, Quiltman and Joanne Shenandoah, each of whom contribute strong tracks to the set. There are some techno attempts that fall pretty flat, with processed voices of tribal elders (this is supposed to give it a dream effect, I guess) and some hip-hop references that just don't work. But the tranquil beauty of Shenandoah and Quiltman, and the rhythmic groove of Mirabal more than counter the effect. --Louis GibsonInternational Music CDs
