R. Carlos Nakai takes another rare excursion into electronica, picking up where he left off with Enter Tribal. But Reconnections is more tightly focused, leaving all the Native American guest players aside and forging a more ensemble sound. Except for his Quartet recordings, this is more rhythmic than anything Nakai usually does. No one will mistake it for a dance CD, but you won't find it on massage tables either. Nakai is revealed in his best light, surrounded by the multifarious strings of William Eaton, who is like having a multi-culti string ensemble in your pocket. Is there a harpist on this record? Where did that sitar and koto come from? It's all William Eaton on one of his hybrid guitars. Ambient electronics from both Cliff Sarde and William Eaton provide shadowy echoes and elliptical counterpoint to Nakai's flute melodies. When Nakai rides the waves created by Sarde, Eaton, and percussionist Randy Wood on "Dreaming Worlds," it makes you realize again why he's the Miles Davis of the Native flute, exploring new terrain, bringing the best out of his musicians, and creating cogent, centered solos. He's not only a defining voice on the flute, but he elevates anyone playing with him. Reconnections wires up new connections in R. Carlos Nakai's continuing evolution. --John Diliberto
