Putumayo will release Music from the Chocolate Lands on November 9,
2004. In the spirit of the best-selling Music from the Coffee Lands
(over 300,000 sold), Music from the Chocolate Lands offers a rich
selection of songs from the worldÆs chocolate producing countries.
Chocolate has been enjoyed for thousands of years. Used for medicinal
and religious purposes, as well as for pleasure, traces of this ôfood
of the godsö have been found in early Mayan pots dating back to 600
B.C.E. Europeans added sugar to the exotic concoction, and the
chocolate craze gradually spread throughout the world. Now the cacao
plant, which provides the raw cocoa beans for chocolate, is farmed in
tropical locations around the globe, often far away from its Central
and South American origins.
Music from the Chocolate Lands features a selection of songs as
distinctive as chocolateÆs history. This release includes music from
the tropical countries that grow cocoa beans as well as
collaborations with musicians from the European regions where
chocolate-makers produce some of the worldÆs most appetizing
chocolate products.
Africa, the worldÆs leading producer of cocoa beans, is represented
by Dobet GnahorΘ from the Ivory Coast and Toto Bona Lokua, a trio
featuring artists from Congo, Cameroon and the French Caribbean
island of Martinique. Also from the Caribbean are HaitiÆs Beethova
Obas, with ôRasanblΘ,ö and the masterful Cuban trumpet player
Chocolate Armenteros, whose song ôChocolate Sabrosoö (Tasty
Chocolate) is a perfect fit. Adrian Martφnez and Andy Palacio, from
the Central American country of Belize, provide a previously
unreleased track. The collection also features songs by Ozomatli
(USA/Mexico), Susana Baca (Peru), Marcantonio (Brazil), Susheela
Raman (India) and Teresa Bright (Hawaii). The Belgian group Think of
One teams up with Brazilian musicians to create a track that unites
two important chocolate producing countries. Taffetas provides
another truly unique collaboration, bringing together musicians from
the West African country of Guinea Bissau and Switzerland, the land
where milk chocolate was invented.
Music from the Chocolate Lands liner notes will be presented in
English, French and Spanish and will include a recipe for a flourless
chocolate torte and information on the history of chocolate around
the world.

From now on, we rip everything in VBR, using the alt-preset standard.
h e l p f u f f e n s
We are looking for quality sites in Europe and US, to be afilliated
on. Remember, we are not in it for the creds, but for the spreading
of quality music - we just want to get our releases out to the ppl
that wants/needs it. More pre sites fills this purpose.
