MP3 Muruga GVCB - One Global Village
12 MP3 Songs
WORLD: World Fusion, URBAN/R&B: Funk
Details:
"One Global Village is a place where master instrumentalists join Muruga to build an irrepressible cosmology of interplanetary funksmanship. Homemade clay drums beat, harmonicas wail, synthesizers flow under flute, sax, acid computer loops, phat bottom bass, all manner of unimaginable percussive effects. A bold, gallant, and fearless onslaught on all five senses spilling over into the sixth sense..." - Reviewed For https://www.tradebit.com

"...electronic beats, swirling synthesized sitars (and maybe some real ones, too), Middle Eastern melodies, and a generally tribal vibe. One Global Village is an extremely original project, the apparent result of a democratic collaboration between dozens of people. And the sincerity behind the project is fully overwhelming." - by Jesse Jarnow for https://www.tradebit.com
"This disc is full of uptempo, danceable tracks which make use of all kinds of interesting instrumental combinations, as well as chant-like vocals with often haunting melodies that stay with you long after the disc runs out." - by Roxanne Gary for https://www.tradebit.com
"Master drummer and percussionist Muruga is a man on a mission in One Global Village. His spiritual quest takes his band into complex, diverse musical forays meant to inspire a message of peace, faith and hope, meaningfully meandering through funk, rap, rock and free-form improvisation interlaced with a world beat." - by PT Quinn for the Ann Arbor Current
