The Rough Guide To Mediterranean Cafe Music

Various Artists
Audio CD: FDO 2004-09-28
Label: World Music Network
"Over the years, an intricate web of musical links has formed across the Mediterranean, despite various political borders, linguistic differences and religions. The ancient links forged by the travelling sailors and merchants that plied the Mediterranean, the conquests of the Romans, Moors and colonialists, and the influences of the modern media, have created musical connections that resonate throughout the region. This CD explores these influences as reflected in the varied café cultures these countries share. Traversing the diverse European sounds of Hellas, Italy, France and Spain, the compelling North African music of Morocco, Algeria and Egypt, this album presents some of the Mediterranean’s most exhilarating coastal sounds.

The Rough Guide To Unwired: Europe

Various
Audio CD: FDO 2003-08-04
Label: World Music Network

This album was released in conjunction with Amnesty International, a worldwide voluntary organisation, who campaign for human rights around the globe.

"A folk-music renaissance is taking place throughout Europe, as fiddle, accordion and acoustic guitar music – at times confined to rural villages – has once again become the rage throughout the continent. This album is an acoustic musical journey across the continent, featuring the leading virtuosos of Spanish flamenco, captivating vocalists of Portuguese fado and Greek rembetika, infectious Gypsy balladeers, enthralling Balkan choirs, energetic brass bands, and touching Nordic and Celtic fiddlers. In a continent that has been divided by linguistically defined political borders, as this collection reveals, Europe’s musical language is universal. Enjoy!......at 320.0 kb/sec!"
