#569 — Exotic journeys, jungles, drums & voices

Listen back to recent programs

Program 569
Paolo Modugno - Le bala et la mouche
Broadcast

I'm going to (almost entirely) put new releases on hold today for a mix of technology, traditional, acoustic and electronic; imaginary processions, exotic places, jungles, drums and voices.  It was the late NY trumpetist Jon Hassell who coined the term 'Fourth World Music' to be something of that ilk; a dark hybrid of music both ancient and digital, composed and improvised, Eastern and Western. I'll be taking some inspiration from him for this music-packed program.

One notable new release included here is Hellbound Train, an ECM anthology of the work of guitarist Steve Tibbetts; a really great collection.
