The emphasis is heavy on the U.K.-based Asian Underground scene, which is oriented towards electronic dance music, and many of the familiar names are here, often remixing one another--Fun-Da-Mental, Transglobal Underground, Kingsuk Biswas (a.k.a. Bedouin Ascent), Talvin Singh, Banco de Gaia, and DJ Cheb i Sabbah. Most of the music from that camp is excellent and a nice introduction to their style. By contrast, Fila Brazillia and Bob Holroyd wobble the line between ambient and dull. One real eye-opener is State of Bengal's remix of the track \"Delerium\" by Toronto-based Ken Ramm's Euphoria. Euphoria's approach is studio-crafted music in the contemporary electronic style, but acoustic slide guitar is the primary sonic material. The other contributors from outside the U.K. dance scene are more of a mixed bag. Qawwali master Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan appears in a piece from a collaboration with Michael Brook, but his forays into modern sounds always conveyed a lot less of the ecstatic qualities of music than his more traditional records. Shankar's trademark Indian jazz fusion closes the CD and should appeal to fans of his style. --Bob Bannister\n\nProduct description\n\nCD \u0026gt; POPULAR MUSIC \u0026gt; WORLD\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B00004RDS7\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: GGV.B00004RDS7.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Various Artists|Delirium|Shankar|Banco de Gaia|Najma|Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan \u0026amp; Michael Brook|Bob Holroyd|Fun Da Mental|dj Cheb I Sabbah|Fila Brazillia\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio CD\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Recycle4","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49566018076970,"sku":"GGV.B00004RDS7.VG","price":10.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0773\/0819\/9210\/files\/skuimage_7096b905-ae8c-4880-80cb-b930453a4993.jpg?v=1731193384","url":"https:\/\/recycle4.com\/products\/a-six-degrees-collection-asian-travels","provider":"Recycle4","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
