Voodoo Vibes

Here is the music that has shaped the resurgence of Paganism in the U.S. through the late 20th and early 21st centuries. A virtual "Greatest Hits" of Pagan music, it includes the work of some of our finest bards, poets and musicians. These songs tell our history, and also chart the evolution of our thought and belief. Exclusive tracks include the long-lost original "Burning Times" recording and several other rare musical gems. It's all here: the musical styles that influence us most, the folk wisdom and sacred story that touches our hearts, the ideals that stir our passions. Extensive liner notes give the story behind each track, a mini-field guide to the beauty and humanity of Pagan song.

Camino Latino treats us to an exciting blend of traditional and contemporary sounds labeled "Nuevo Latino". Enjoy, as one of the world's most imaginative artists leads us with beauty, grace and panache on a unique Latin Journey.

Punta del Este Sunset is part of a series of ambient mix discs inspired by rave locations around the world, this one being Punta del Esta, Uruguay. Mixed live by A Man Called Adam, Sunset takes a global approach to ambient music with a pop tinge. Issa Bagayogo weaves an African trance, while the Beta Band affects a pastoral brand of acoustic pop. Beta Band's inclusion in this usually all-electronic domain speaks to A Man Called Adam's willful eclecticism, which on this album also includes Luscious Jackson. Pushing the envelope of ambient chill, AMCA holds them together with seamless segues that break down superficial barriers. They take us from Branda Fassia's joyous African techno chant, "Vuli n' Delia," to John Beltran's tapped bass, digital delay foray, "Collage of Dreams," and AMCA's own "Steady" with its world-weary vocal. Punta del Este has dramatic, if languid, arc: a torrid day burning into a sultry night. --John Diliberto
