Zweiter Teil ! Ekstatisch-überschwengliche rituelle Sufi-Musik aus Marokko mit expressivem Gesang und Flötenklängen.... Aufnahmen von 1995, keine „World Music“, sondern Musik in ihrer ganzen Ursprünglichkeit, fast schon eine ethnologisch-akustische Feld-Studie!
“MOROCCAN TRANCE: Some years ago, we have released a first volume of these moroccan trance musics with the collaboration of the american writer Paul Bowles - it included some Jilala rituals (from Tangier) and Gnaoua (from Marrakesh). The record was highly acclaimed. It was and it is still (ref. SUBCD013-36) one of the first records realized intra muro - a kind of sacred chamber music.
SUFI MUSIC: Here is its logical continuation but in the mood of more reflexive thoughts. It begins very raw with the Gnaoua recorded with the wonder voice of young Tayib Taiybe (the most extraordinary soul voice since Jimmy Cliff) and it ends with the solo flute of the oldest musicians of Joujouka. It is what's happened after the trance. This is the other side of things. The two volumes are also pure, also true, also beautiful.
WORK IN PROGRESS: Once again, what we attempt to do with this serie is to record rare of secret things - and there is no other way to do that to be there - to live there for a while - and to open ears and heart...
After the first record of The Master Musicians of Joujouka (ref. SR87), Frank Rynne and Joe Ambrose have stay there for months and the result is a splendid aural adventure - this is in fact the real thing. Not another world music record - but an unique experience - what is
proposed here is nothing but a new way to live. THE SERIES : NEWS & RE-PUBLISHED RECORDS: Le Coeur du monde / ritual music & field recordings. This collection offers a series of location recordings made without the use of a studio. The object is to capture music as it happens. All forms may be covered - given that there is no such thing as pure music - but we believe it is better not to release what is wrongly called world music, a hybrid form forced down by globalisation.” [press release]
