Review

Loop Guru represent England's finest strain of ethno-ambient electronica. Led by a quasimystical twosome known only as Salman Gita and Ja Muud, Loop Guru illuminate a seductive East-meets-West approach toward sonorously sampled psychedelia. While there's been much ethno-electronic experimentation in music, Loop Guru have defined this art for many years. Gathered from their early recordings (the audiocassette-only releases of Catalogue of Desires, volumes 1 and 2), this collection integrates tablas and chants with sitars, guitars, and electronics. Using programmed percussionists, Muud and Gita create a thick, dreamlike atmosphere filled with meditative resonance. Synthesized drumbeats mingle with bamboo flutes and morph into a contemplative tone poem replete with chirping birds. Understated, otherworldly, and sonically evocative, this is another fine edition of Loop Guru's distinctive sound. --Mitch Myers
