Music reviews of Re-Covers
Music Review: Tuvan traditional singer fell in love w/ rock music
Rating: 5 Stars
I don't know how I can capture the cross-cultural magic of this CD. The high point, I think, is Kuvezin's thunder-and-lighting growling bass wrapping itself around Santana's "Black Magic Woman." Kuvezin's liner notes explain that there are *real* Black Magic Women in his country, and "I like them very much."
Description of Re-Covers
Yat-Kha's unique sound revolves around the marriage of the traditional - 'khoomei' throat-singing, endemic to the group's native Tuva (the smallest and most remote republic in the Russian Federation), which allows the singer to hold more than one note simultaneously - to the modern - the (then-underground) rock and punk which inspired Albert to pick up his first electric guitar. Albert's bone-shaking double-bass growl, coupled with his high harmonics, provide the foundation while the music is driven along by a mix of traditional instruments which contrast with Albert's beloved electric guitar. 'Recovers' recorded late last year after the band suffered a number of disasters including stolen musical equipment, stolen passports and a car crash, Albert Kuvezin took time out to reflect on what started him on this journey in the first place, which led to the recording of this album paying tribute to the music which influenced the band. Here you can hear Joy Division, ! Led Zepplin, Captain Beefheart, Chieftains and others as you never have heard before, as Yat-Kha bring a new element to these songs.Experimental Rock CDs
