Mestisay - Viento de la Isla [Canarias, folk]

Subido por Marhali.

Mestisay es un grupo musical canario creado en 1978 en la isla de Gran Canaria por Manuel González, alumno del timplista Totoyo Millares, que convoca a una veintena de jóvenes amantes de la música popular canaria. En sus inicios nace como grupo neofolclórico, siguiendo la estela de grupos isleños como Los Sabandeños, con una estética de coro popular. A lo largo de sus más de 25 años de historia han pasado por varias etapas y han buceado por diferentes estilos musicales.

Con una quincena de discos en sus espaldas, destacan en los mismos las importantes colaboraciones de artistas como Amancio Prada, Carlos Cano, Joan Manuel Serrat y Dacio Ferrera. La carrera musical de Mestisay (llamado también en los años 80 como la "Compañía canaria del canto popular") ha estado muy unida a la de varios poetas isleños, como Pedro Lezcano, con cuyos textos publicó en 1985 el disco Romance del Corredera. Por otro lado, en 1994 Mestisay graba Querido Néstor un homenaje al polifacético artista grancanario llamado Néstor Álamo y que, a modo de homenaje, recoge lo más destacado de su obra musical.

Mestisay ha sido considerado por la crítica como uno de los grupos españoles de música popular de mayor proyección internacional. Después de haber recorrido con sus canciones todos los rincones de la geografía insular canaria, ese reconocimiento internacional les ha llevado a actuar en los mejores escenarios de Argentina, Uruguay, Venezuela, Cuba y Nicaragua. Han actuado también en diferentes ciudades españolas como Madrid, Bilbao, Valencia y Vigo, entre otras.

A finales de años 90, el grupo Mestisay quedó reducido al dúo formado por Manuel González, creador inicial de la formación, y Olga Cerpa, vocalista incorporada al grupo a mediados de los 80. En los años siguientes siguen con la producción de discos y espectáculos basados en grupos y cantantes de música folk y poetas de Latinoamérica, celebrando su 25 aniversario con una producción que titulan Toda una vida y que recorre todas las épocas del grupo, hasta llegar a octubre de 2008, en la que presentan la edición de Pequeño fado y otras canciones de amor, donde la voz de Olga acomete un repertorio de boleros vestidos instrumentalmente por músicos de fado portugués.

Viento de la Isla (1998), contó la producción del portugués Julio Pereira y con la participación del cantante portugués de origen mozambiqueño João Afonso. Sus canciones son historias de cada día, sensaciones de un tiempo y relatos de una vida, unidas en melodías dulces y voces cálidas. Un disco lleno de alegría y melancolía hecho con un buen aderezo de calidad.

BECAYE Aw is a guitarist, singer and songwriter of the African Fulani (Haal Pulaar) people. Becaye spent his childhood in Dakar, Senegal, and it was here he first laid his hands on a guitar.

Becaye began his musical career in Senegal, playing with musicians such as Baaba Maal and Mansuur Seck. He has since then participated in many groups and projects, in collaboration with a variety of musicians. This project is Becaye’s debut as a soloist.

Gillett has been digging deep into music collections and artists’ works since 1962 and has been DJing on the radio since 1972. More recently, artists from Mali to Iraq, Uganda to China have been gaining popularity with the British public and sales in the UK have increased by approximately 20% or more in the last year and a half. From Manu Chao, Tuareg nomads Tinariwen (who appeared on last year’s compilation) to South African (and BBC Awards for World Music nominee) Simphiwe Dana and one of Africa’s most influential singers Youssou N’ Dour (and not forgetting the now tragically deceased Andy Palacio, Madilu System and Lucky Dube), music from all sections of the planet has been proving a delight to listeners in festivals and homes across Europe and further afield. Gillett has, yet again, chosen some superb tracks on this compilation from an array of international artists – some well known and some not-so-well-known (and some of which are not even available on download).

In this, the ninth album in the series, Beyond the Horizon presents the listener with 34 artists from 28 different countries on two discs. As well as the bigger named stars (including Orchestra Baobab and Toumani Diabate as well as some of those mentioned above), there is a variety of innovative and eloquent songs featured including the driving percussive rhythms and vocal serenity from Lebanese singer Nancy Ajram, the rich tones of the Uzbek singer Severa with contemporary electro backing on a track from her latest album Sen. You can only marvel at the incredible playing on the valiha (a Madagascan multi-stringed instrument) by Rajery who despite playing an instrument that requires virtuoso technique with two hands plays exquisitely on the track ‘Mandehandeha’ from his album Sofera…despite having only one hand! There are endearing bird chirps on the track by the Mozambique group Massukos and some powerful political discourse from Trinidadian band Kobo Town. Cleverly blending various styles are Western guitarist Justin Adams who plays with traditional Gambian instrumentalist Juldeh Camara and a remarkable tune by Almasäla that combines Catalan vocals with spacey synths and raucous jungle breakbeats. Based in California, Dengue Fever’s unique take on surf music from the 60s fronted by high-pitched vocalist from Phnom Penh, Cambodia, Chlom Nimol, is fascinating. Also featured are Franco-Algerian singer Soha, the oud Trio Joubran from Palestine, Dadawa from China, winner of the Tom.com award as ‘the most influential woman in Chinese music’, and many more.

Popol Vuh - Hosianna Mantra [alemania]


Hosianna Mantra, un album cargado de espiritualidad, pacífica y llena de encanto. Esta vez Popol Vuh, logra ambientarnos en una fusion cristiano-oriental-cósmica, con una labor hermosa en las voces a cargo de Djong Yung. La labor del piano en reemplazo al clásico Moog de Fricke, de un ocasional oboe y violin, sumado a varios instrumentos típicos de la música de oriente, dan un caracter super íntimo y reflexivo, dejando de lado el clásico gusto por la tension de los grupos de Krautrock en general.

01 Ah! [04:49]

Classical Music of Egypt

Egyptian music has been an integral part of Egyptian culture since ancient times. The ancient Egyptians credited the god Thoth with the invention of music, which Osiris in turn used as part of his effort to civilize the world. The earliest material and representational evidence of Egyptian musical instruments dates to the Predynastic period, but the evidence is more securely attested in the Old Kingdom when harps, flutes and double clarinets were played. Percussion instruments, lyres and lutes were added to orchestras by the Middle Kingdom. Cymbals frequently accompanied music and dance, much as they still do in Egypt today. Egyptian folk music, including the traditional Sufi zikr rituals, are the closest contemporary music genre to ancient Egyptian music, having preserved many of its features, rhythms and instruments.

Nicky Skopelitis & Raoul Bjorkenheim - Revelator


Revelator might be identified as a "guitar-based" recording, but the range of sound explored here by Skopelitis and Bjorkenheim is so unrestricted, inventive and all-encompassing as to make the term almost archaic. Darkly hypnotic drones, African guitar styles, controlled feedback and harmonics, Indian sitar sounds and countless other strange-beautiful sources coalesce in an atmosphere that is by turns majestic and mystical, celebratory and brooding. Although they both claim the guitar as their instrument of choice, Nicky Skopelitis and Raoul Bjorkenheim probably couldn't come from more radically different backgrounds. But one essential trait they do share is an inexhaustible thirst for new directions and new sensibilities in music, and with Revelator - a collaboration that, true to its title, attempts to reveal the unexpected as it also explores a slightly spiritual edge - the guitar becomes a vehicle for two distinct voices. From there, the quest for a third voice begins: Where creative forces meet to offer up a glimpse of one possible musical future.
