More About this Artist

Review:

Shift attitudes, give respect and listen intently to a sound that combines reggae, rap, African singing with a whole slew of other styles and adventures. Take a trip through Northern Africa guided by the men of Gnawa Impulse and attempt to recognize a small bit of a continent whose sounds are being revered by the world's musicians.

Having come up together, in parallel travels through the London electronic scene. Having both been born under Jewish heritage. Having both developed an interest in Middle Eastern and Jewish music. Having both studied a musical instrument in a classical aspect. It's a wonder Zohar as a whole, both Andy and Erran, didn't fully come into being until 1997. Read below to learn about this extraordinary journey that is still continuing to many new things.

AV: How did you two initially meet up?
Z: Well there is an album before the recent one called Elokainu. At that time we had actually first met through other musician friends. During the writing of that album we started playing at big festivals in England and that let to networking with other bands and parties and then Erran jumpstarted it all and thus came the beginning of the OneThreeSeven album.

Review:

This is a group based around the partnership of halucinogen's Simon Posford and the flutist Raja Ram. Both providing us with an album that needs to be in any Asian Massive collectors shelves no matter if you like the electronic aspect of this sound or not.

Review:

Drum n Scapes. That should say it all. If you have listened to these guys on AsianVibrations.com's webcast or have heard their songs on mp3.com then you know exactly what that term means. If you haven't heard of them before this cd, then you are in for a ride. This is a journey meant to be endeavored with an open mind and a heart ready to groove, maybe even dance.

Review:

South Asian Classical vocals and instruments meet DJing, which meets Trance Electronica that meets Egyptian singing in a profound combination of world music that not only defies political boundaries but also gets you off your ass and makes you wonder where the hell has this sound been all my life.
