Description

From the forests of southern Bulgaria to the shores of Lake Chad, this is an album of remarkable diversity, performed by musical guardians keeping their traditions alive. Uncluttered by technology and over-production, these pure-sounding tracks expose the very essence of some of the world’s most loved musical styles.

By stripping away the veneer of unnecessary production and electronic elements, one can expose the true essence of musical traditions, and in a time where technology continues to turn up the volume of modern-day life, this is a welcome straight-from-the-source collection.

Nothing can beat the experience of listening to music in a live setting and being able to see, as well as hear, each pluck of a string or beat of a drum, and hopefully the uncluttered nature of these recordings brings you closer to the performer(s) from the comfort of your armchair.
