Review

The Cuban keyboardist Omar Sosa is one of today's leading folkloric futurists. His latest recording features Tunisian oud master Dhafer Youssef, Anglo-Catalan drummer/turntablelist Steve Arguelles, and German bassist Dieter Ilg. This date is more electronic, midtempo, and, arguably, more accessible than his previous projects. Sosa's rhythmic and reflective pianisms are accented by woodwinds, African, Arabic, and East Indian percussion, and vocal samples which are propelled by Afro-Cubanized jazz grooves. Special guest Paquito D'Rivera's pithy clarinet solos spice up the club-friendly "Ternura," the clave-bhangra beats of "Dos Caminos," and the Nuyorican cha-cha-cha, "Nuevo Manto." If you can't figure out where Asia, Africa ,and America begin or end, that's the point. As Sosa writes in his liner notes, the music is a "meeting of cultures, a crossroads, a fusion of races and traditions." --Eugene Holley, Jr.
