▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ Release Notes ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄
Who would have guessed that PutumayoÆs past Arabic releases
would do so well in Latin America? But further listening
shows that Arabic and Latin music are like second cousins,
and todayÆs Arabic music has diverse influences. North
African Grooveùthe seventh CD in PutumayoÆs beat-driven
Groove seriesùproves the point.
Thanks to the Moors, Spanish music has an Arabic influence.
And Cuban music combines Spanish heritage with West African
music, a region that also shares historical connections with
the Arab world.
On ôMontuno Nore±o,ö the Cuban-Algerian band Jomed combines
Arab-Andalusian music and chΓabi, a popular song form that is
one of the roots of Algerian ra∩. The Spanish and Arabic
lyrics are accompanied by the Arabic oud playing the parts
usually performed on the Cuban trΘs guitar, classic Cuban
septet trumpet ornaments, and the violin swing that is common
to both Cuban charanga and Arab-Andalusian music.
Moroccan-born, ra∩ singer Rhany became so impassioned by
Latin music that he went to CubaÆs EGREM Studiosùthe Havana
studio where the Buena Vista Social Club albums were
producedùto record a pulsing, acoustic dance piece that fuses
North African percussion and oud with swinging Cuban piano.
Egyptian Amr DiabÆs song ôNour El Ainö (The MindÆs Eye)
blends Arabic music elements with Gipsy Kings-style rumba
flamenco, which started a trend among many Arabic singers.
The original album featuring this track is one of the
best-selling albums ever recorded by an Arabic artist.
Another pattern emerges on North African Groove, which
features artists from every North African country. While it
was once unusual for Arabic artists to perform in French, as
this album shows, it has become more common in recent years.
Algerian ra∩ superstar KhaledÆs ôA∩chaöù a French-language
track released in 1996ùwas the first song by an Arab artist
to hit number one in France. Other Arab artists followed
suit, releasing material in French.
Faudel is the leading representative of a new generation of
Algerian ra∩ singers who were born and raised in France, far
from the city of Oran, Algeria where the style was born. The
French media have dubbed him ôthe Little Prince of Ra∩.ö
ôDis-Moi Pourquoiö (Tell Me Why) was one of AminaÆs biggest
hits in France, thanks to its enticing blend of exotic North
African melodies and instruments with a bass-heavy beat. The
Tunisian actress sings in French, ôHow is it possible to
remain complacent in a world of such inequality? Why canÆt we
live in harmony?ö
Meanwhile, ôYa-Rayi,ö the title track from KhaledÆs most
recent album, marks a return to the pure ra∩ of his first
European release.
Cairo is a hub of the Middle Eastern entertainment industry
and, like starlets flocking to Los Angeles, artists from
throughout the region come there seeking fame and fortune.
Samira Saeid grew up in MoroccoÆs capital, Rabat, and gained
notoriety through her appearances on American Idol-style
television singing competitions. After becoming a star at
home, she moved to Egypt to seek broader success. ôAal Eahö
(What Did He Say) is representative of the funky blend of
slick international pop and Arabic grooves for which she is
most famous.
Cheb Jilani, one of LibyaÆs biggest stars and a growing
presence in the rest of the Arab world, also moved to Cairo.
Jilani was taught by his father to sing Arabic folk songs at
a young age, and he became known as a teenager for his deft
renditions of complex songs by popular Arab artists. After
mastering the classical style of singing, he taught himself
to sing in various Arabic dialects, making him a versatile
artist with a wide appeal.
From the city of Aswan in southern Egypt, Nubian Mohammed
Mounir moved to Cairo in the 1970s to study art, and began
performing songs from his region. His casual dress, Nubian
dialect, and unfamiliar rhythms and dance moves took Cairo by
surprise. His success helped pave the way for other Nubian
artists. He was also one of the first Egyptian artists to be
heavily influenced by Jamaican reggae.
The Pan-Arabic North African Groove closes out with the
multiculti Eastenders. On their song ôOn the Rideö the German
and Turkish duo collaborate with singer Shady Sheha, a young
Egyptian who lives in Wiesbaden, Germany. The songs says,
ôGet up and come with us / LetÆs play and see the world /
DonÆt think about who you are / Or where you come from / We
all share the same path / Which doesnÆt seem to have an end.ö
