Awen Magic Land
Awen Magic Land (Resistencia)
$17.99
Carlos Soto (formerly of Celtas Cortos) and Maria Desbordes bring their flutes, whistles, reeds, accordions, bagpipes, and other traditional instruments to the edge of the machine age with a broad use of samplers, electrionics and studio recording to create a Celtic/Spanish music that never becomes mechanized. They certainly owe a debt to the contemporary work of Kepa Junkera, but they move in different worlds even as they utilize similar pallettes. This is a very modern CD, and the traditionalist may balk at the hardware, but I think they handle it with elegance and creative spark.
