Re: Moshic - Salamat released on Monday.6 Feb '06

Finally got this, I?ll try to write my opinion about it with a bit more detail tomorrow, but here?s two quick notes I?d like to make about it :

The beginning of the progressive CD (the first 2 tracks) is devastating, and is to me one of the most powerful openings to an album that I?ve ever heard.
Track Nr. 6, "Primavera"...my jaw dropped...it?s a Portuguese word meaning "Spring", which I found intriguing, but it?s also used is the Spanish language, so nothing special there, but when I listened to the track...the vocal is probably the 1st time that a sample of our national music style "Fado" is ever used in the context of dance music!!! And it?s done by an Israeli, of all people...It?s incredibly well-used and powerful, I must admit I was bit moved listening to this...the singer, Amalia Rodrigues, is pne of our national symbols. :bow down: :bow down: :bow down:

:lol:

Count me in that surprise, just purchased my copy a couple of days ago and got it yesterday and when i got to that track i was like :shock: wtf? it sounds like our fado! it cant be, i must be listening to the wrong CD. It was very fresh to listen to this track, i just cant stop listening to it, anyway Kinetic it isnt Am?lia Rodrigues, its Mariza indeed, her voice is very similar. Since im a big fan of Moshic's productions and appreciate all the scene going in mid-eastern, specially turkey and israeli this is def a must buy for everyone in the same conditions because its just perfect.
