Review title: Terrific world fusion
Product review: These days, a lot of world fusion is a kind of half-hearted mixture of studio technology with a few skimpy samples of "ethnic" singing or melody thrown in, just to reassure the listener that the "artist" is, in fact, doing world fusion.This album is the real deal. Scott Hill has done a masterful job of assembling full-bodied, substantial samples of singing and percussion from various African countries--including Uganda, Kenya, and Senegal--and fused them with a perfect blend of electronics that makes the native music stand out, rather than smothering it in syth washes and beats.Hill has also sythesized/sampled native instruments--djembe, kora, darbuka--but here again, the mix is tasteful and complements the indigenous melodies he has chosen.An excellent example of today's world fusion--not for those looking for the thin, commercial type of thing.
