| Slither (Theme) Anoushka Shankar and Karsh Kale - Breathing Under Water - Manhattan Records, 2007 |
| Featuring an incredible (new-to-me) find from Eraldo Bernocchi & Somma. All LIVE, and entirely improvised, including visuals.
"The concept behind Somma is the real interaction among different cultures with the aim to contaminate and explore ancient traditions connecting new electronic music and technology with jazz, dub, and mantric concepts. ... Unlike several so called 'world music' issues and experiments, Somma aims to have real interaction between different worlds, both sonically and visually. " We will play the whole darned thing on today's program. A TOTAL STUNNER!! Get out your very best headphones right now! Line-up: o Eraldo Bernocchi - treated guitars and electronics (co-founder) o Petulia Mattioli - stage design and visuals (co-founder) o Bill Laswell - bass o 7 Tibetan monks - vocals, horns, bells, drums o Stefano Cecere - visual assistant o Hamid Drake - drums o Gigi - vocals o Toshinori Kondo - trumpet o Raiz - vocals o Oz Fritz - sound engineering and space dislocations o Lorenzo Esposito Fornasar - vocals o Nils Petter Molvaer - trumpet o Faraualla - vocal group Recorded live at Teatro Dal Verme in Milan, 2007.
