Some may complain that Ojos De Brujo is simply the latest group to pillage flamenco music, but they'd be missing the point. This Barcelona band grew up with the flamenco tradition while also devouring a steady diet of hip-hop, punk, funk, gypsy and Middle Eastern music, so the inclusion of rapping, turntables and funk grooves is a logical one for these upstarts. Marina "La Canillas" Abad doesn't have the range that a conservatory-trained singer might have, but she makes up for it with her vivid, socially conscious lyrics and staccato delivery, which can skitter into rapid-fire rapping that resonates surprisingly well with flamenco's chattering rhythms. Indeed, the group is unafraid to mix anything: "Naita" starts out as a traditional song before breaking into a techno finale. More graceful is the fusion on "Memorias Perdías," which meshes flamenco, gypsy and swing jazz. One of the most hotly anticipated releases of the spring, Bari has a punky spirit that will make it a pick on many year-end lists. -Tad Hendrickson

mezcla exquisita de techno/flamenco.......2006-08-01
Electronica fused with flamenco. Not the ostentatious guitar work you might normally associate with the word flamenco - no, this is more subtle, a female flamenco vocal set to relentlessly lax, expansive techno arrangements; liberally garnished with traditional percussion, light touches of flamenco guitar and gypsy fiddlework.
Y lo quiero tanto!
I understand these are remixes. Can't speak to how they differ from the originals, yet. Give me a couple weeks, I'll be acquiring more music from these guys. Would reccomend that you do, as well.
Much better than pickles & peanutbutter, this.

Nicola Di Bari Rocks My World!!.......2004-06-17
an international hit maker.......2003-12-05
Five of the songs were written by Di Bari, and most translated into Spanish, as Nicola had a huge following in Latin America and was equally comfortable singing in either language. "Io e te Maria" and "Picolla Donna" are sung in Italian, and "Il cuore e' uno zingaro" ("El corazon es un gitano"), "Il giorni del Arcobaleno" ("Los dias del Arco Iris"), "Como le Viole" ("Como Violetas") and Chitarra suona piu piano" ("Guitarra suena mas bajo") are sung first in Spanish and then repeated in the last tracks in their original versions.
Di Bari had his first big hit in 1964, and won First Prize in the illustrious San Remo Festival twice, with "Cuore e un zingaro" in '71, and "Il giorni del Arcobaleno" in '72, and continued to have much success into the '80s. A unique singer /songwriter, his music endures, and is always a pleasure to listen to. In this excellent compilation the sound is quite good considering the age of the recordings, and the total time 70'22.
Pure listening pleasure.......1998-12-09

Album Description
Berliners say New York's Rebecca Garfein is causing a revival of Reform Judaism in Germany; this mezzo-soprano is making history with her music, recorded in the country where her great -grandmother perished in the Holocaust. In 1997, she became the first female cantor to sing in a synagogue in Germany; where she performed as part of Berlin's International Jewish Cultural Festival; and this exquisite 1998 release captures that ground - (and stained-glass ceiling) - breaking moment. It contains Jewish songs and prayers in Hebrew and Yiddish, selections from the Book of Ruth and Song of Songs - liturgical music previously only chanted my male clergy - operatic in character, performed in what was once the women's gallery in the Oranienburger Strasse Synagogue before its destruction. This live performance was attended by Jews and non-Jews, women and men, together, shattering the historical separation of faiths and genders. Beautiful, significant, and highly recommended!Customer Reviews:
Not at all what I expected.......2006-01-21
I immediately searched the web for the info, got the name of the chant and found this CD. I almost purchased it without listening, when I found a different site, where they actually have rather long excerpts (2 min.) of most tracks, so I listened to them.
Boy, was I relieved and disappointed at once! Relieved that I didn't buy the CD and disappointed that I couldn't get the song I wanted (I was willing to buy a whole CD for just 1 song, that's how much it impressed me).
The song sounds very little like the one from the West Wing, although I do believe that the site where I found the info speficially pointed to this CD as having a recording of the same song used in the show. And I'm sorry to say it but the voice also doesn't hold a candle to the one used on the show - way too "operatic", as mentioned by many, and harsh and even unpleasant-sounding to me. It took all the charm and candor right out of the song (in the show, they had a much more natural voice do the song). I also agree that the choir does not mesh well with the soloist.
If anyone knows where and if I can purchase a recording of this song done by a different singer (if it can be the one from the West Wing, I'll be thrilled), please, let me know. In the meantime, I'm passing on this CD...
Marvelous.......2006-01-11
