Music reviews of Love Trap
Music Review: beyond boundaries
Rating: 4 Stars
the moment you start putting music into little boxes, you know that you are in for a disaster with this album. this is not hindustani music. nor is it carnatic. a catchall phrase like 'world music' is perhaps too dubious to deserve comment.
if, however, one doesn't get burdened by the weight of boundaries, this album offers a great and varied collection of songs. the lady's pipes are in good order, the instrumentation is interesting, it is certainly ecletic... a couple of my friends more well versed in the tongues she was singing in blanched at the accents, but what the heck, bob marley's rich patois wasn't really queens english.
'save me ' is a great track. 'amba' is mind blowing. 'sakhi maro' is one song for which i would have bought the entire cd.
looks like i got a good bargain.

Description of Love Trap
Enhanced CD features 13 total tracks including the bonus track 'Love Trapp' (remix) and the video. EMI. 2005.For this follow-up to her 2001 debut, (Salt Rain, which won a BBC Radio 3 World Music Award and was certified Gold in France), Raman continues to build on her tried-and-true formula. Born in Britain to South Indian parents, her Tamil birthright did not preclude an attraction to Western pop and she explores this duality throughout the album. The title tune is a back-room, jazzy rendering of an urban Ethiopian hit--it and a sexy cover of Joan Armatrading's "Save Me" are the only English-language tracks. The other nine offer a far-flung m?lange of languages, constituting a dream journey during which the chanteuse's silky, flexible alto encounters trip-hop, Tuvan throat singing, sinuous Indian classical ornamentation, and assorted African influences. As modern electronica flickers amid age-old acoustic instruments with unexpectedly felicitous results, it becomes clear that Raman has achieved a study in contrasts that is also a primer for inclusion. --Christina Roden
