5.0 out of 5 stars
The best cd I have,
By Carlos Rojas (Cincinnati) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Temporal (Audio CD)
This is the most expresive music I have find, I love to search for authentic music that comes from the roots of world cultures and features a respectful, clean, modern production. If you hate syntetizers and love to feel in your skin the vibration of arabic - african percussion, spanish acoustic strings and raw deeply engaged vocals, you will love it. Es como si un grupo de musicos milagrosamente hubiera logrado entender en que punto los mejores ingredientes de las culturas ancestrales que habitaron españa, podian combinarse para producir una musica extremadamente poderosa,llena de fuerza, vida, rabia, alegria y expresion.

5.0 out of 5 stars
crossover, en todo el sentido de la palabra,
By A Customer
This review is from: Temporal (Audio CD)
España, a diferencia del resto de países europeos, se distingue culturalmente porque en su territorio coexistieron las tres grandes culturas monoteístas, cristianos, musulmanes y judios, y no lo hicieron por un breve rato sino durante cientos de años. Lo que aquí ha hecho Radio Tarifa (la ciudad por la que los árabes entraron a la Península desde Africa a principios del siglo VIII) es llevar esa fusión a las consecuncias más lógicas: mezclar las tres tradiciones sin ningún condicionamiento de partida. Y la prueba de que el experimento no es nada artificial está en la fascinación que produce a quien lo escucha, mayor cuanto más desconocidos les resulten los materiales de origen. Eso sólo ocurre cuando una música sale del fondo de la historia de un pueblo (o de muchos, para ser exactos) porque está demostrado que las fusiones "de laboratorio" a la larga se descubren como falsas y no funcionan.

Music you can taste smell and touch,
By
This review is from: Temporal (Audio CD)
Although I don't think I can add too much to what has been said by others, I am compelled to tell you just how much this visceral recording grabs me. I feel like I am with the musicians.... I'm just not sure exactly where, on the map, that is! I know where Tarifa is, but the place this music takes me is pure fantasy. Wonderful carnal joy! If ever there was an advertisement for travelling to Spain, it is this recording. I like R. Argelina too, but this one you can taste, smell and touch. Pour a glass of full bodied red and enjoy!
