| BEBO BEST & THE SUPER LOUNGE ORCHESRTRA |
|
The story of Brazilian and Indian musicians blending their music together is a long one and remains one of the most exciting musical journeys. Brazil and India share a love for acoustic stringed instruments and driving percussion. And you know what? In some mysterious way, by some unknown route, it all ends up sounding great, as it's done with care, love and good humour. This unique album presents a celebration of the musical mix between these two rich cultures. From Bollywood-inspired Brazilian tunes, to Bossa driven sitar funk; from downtempo melodious sitars to deep batucada and table rhythms. The Indian Summer has arrived in Copacabana.BEBO BEST aka The Alchemist Bebo Baldan, producer, musician, film composer, arranger and multi-instrumentalist (bass, percussion, drums, sitar, guitar & keyboards) has worked on over 90 albums, and many soundtracks for films and TV, and has international recognition for the wise and original use of electronics and ethnic music that distinguished his works. His collaborations with such personalities as Gilberto Gil, Moni Ovadia Jon Hassel, Steven Brown, Steve Reich, Michael Nyman, Wim Mertens, Nitin Sawhney, Trilok Gurtu, Sinead O' Connor, David Torn, Ruichy Sakamoto, Frank Zappa, the American violinist Stephen James (Ravi Shankar, Bill Laswell), and guitarist David Torn (David Sylvian, Jan Garbarek, Don Cherry) has allowed him to explore ethnic and non-European types of music, an original Mediterranean formula influenced by jazz, traditional and warm electronic music.
