Markus Stockhausen trumpets, flh
Deepak Ram bansuri

With his new album, Dhafer Youssef takes a subsequent step on his way of fusing Arab traditions with contemporary sounds. "Electric Sufi" unites jazz improvisation, ethnic roots, funk grooves and electronics into a novel West-Eastern amalgam that echoes the general trends in today's world. Stockhausen's jazz/classical trumpet playing, Muthspiel's electric fusion guitar, Ram's Indian flute sounds, Cinelu's Caribbean rhythms, Ilg's solid jazz feel, Wimbish's electric groove, Calhoun's urban afro-funk and Packe's electronical soundscapes join in a multi-cultural network that is fresh and comprehensible at the same time. Dominated by the bewitching virtuosity of Dhafer Youssef's voice and the lyrical depth of his oud playing, this powerful album gives a great vision of our musical future
Also recommended: "Malak" (ENJ-9367 2) with Markus Stockhausen, Nguyan Leأ‚آھ, Renaud Garcia-Fons, Deepak Ram, Zoltan Lantos, Achim Tang, Jatinder Thakur, Carlo RizzoThe new CD ELECTRIC SUFI (ENJ-9412 2) was produced and recorded in New York, Cologne and Paris featuring the excellent ensemble of Will Calhoun dr, Doug Wimbish el-b, electronics, Dieter Ilg b, Mino Cinelu percussion, Wolfgang Muthspiel guitars, Markus Stockhausen trumpet, Deepak Ram bansuri providing the perfect setting for Dhafer's deeply felt oud playing and his intense vocals

Album : Amina Annabi
Born in 1962 in Carthage, Tunisia, Amina is an international star. She has recorded in Arabic, French and English, sang with artists such as Afrika Bambaata and Yasuaki Shimizu, and has received the prestigious "Prix Piaf" for best female singer. She was also invited by Peter Gabriel to be included in the 1991 remake of John Lennon's "Give Peace A Chance," during the Gulf War. Here career has also included acting and dance. Her music is a blend of styles, including jazz, pop, rock, rap and several other genres, but it is generally informed by the Arabic Malouf tradition she learned from her mother, who was also a musician.
Top tracks are C'est Gai, Lirrilli, Dis-Moi Pourquoi (Hip Hop Mix) & Men Jibb is fantastic. The rest of the album is very good, mixing the usual Arabic & French, this time around an English track is included.
Her beautiful, powerful voice & the music blend to create an indescribable mood that tends to make your mind ponder things deep inside. Definitely one of my favorite albums & well worth the money I spent.

Anour Brahem Trio "Astrakan Cafe"
Anouar Brahem : oud / Barbaros Erkأƒآ¶se : clarinet / Lassad Hosni : bendir, darbouka
Aube rouge أƒآ Grozny / Astrakan Cafأƒآ© (1) / The Mozdok's Train / Blue Jewels / Nihawend Lunga / Ashkabad / Halfaouine / Parfum de Gitane / Khotan / Karakoum / Astara / Dar es Salaam / Hija pechref / Astrakan Cafأƒآ© (2)<
Tunisian oud virtuoso Anouar Brahem counts as one of ECM's most important "discoveries" of the last decade. After his highly successful trans-cultural recording "Thimar", he returns to a more purely Middle Eastern music on "Astrakan Cafأƒآ©", with the trio that has been his first priority for several years. The improvisational exchanges between Brahem, clarinettist Barbaros Erkأƒآ¶se and percussionist Lassad Hosni are exceptionally fluid, and the atmospheres that they create by turns mysterious, hypnotic, dramatic...

Mamdouh Bahri "African Flame"
This fourth recording explores the meeting of Eastern and Western musics in their popular and known forms.

Traditional oriental rhythms (binary - Ouahda Saguira, Baladi, etc.; ternary - Selsla, M'dawar Houzi, Daraj, etc.; odd - Samaï Thakil) and the Afro-Mediterranean melodies are inextricably interwoven with jazz harmonies, while Arab musical forms (Douleb, Touchayah, Samaï) infuse the jazz to create an explosive a new sound.
