“Flamenco Chillin’” showcases the many beautiful faces and aspects of Flamenco as well as its deep roots in many musical cultures on a global scale.
Hailing from India for example, Nitin Sawhney’s love for this special musical genre materializes with ‘Moonrise’ a track with a contemporary Flamenco feeling like no other. It reminds us of the fact that the origin of Flamenco indeed lies in India! The Bristol based musical globetrotters from Up, Bustle and Out unite with the exceptional Cuffy El Guapo. But “Flamenco Chillin’” becomes even more versatile than that: Souad Massi contributes her Algerian musical roots, Zeb from Italy bathes his ‘Flamenco Al Arabia’ in a deep dub bubble bath and Vienna based project Madrid De Los Austrias drop in with the intense yet ultra sensual ‘Los Canos De Meca’.
Flamenco Chillin’? Yes, indeed. Listen for yourself.
