Mimika Orchestra – Altur Mur DLP (Rika Muzika / Menart)
I had a chance to write about many ethno/world music artists, orchestras, and bands in the past, but no one came even remotely close to the ambiance emitted by the almighty Mimika Orchestra. Those familiar with the unlimited creativity of these highly experienced musicians already know what I am talking about. However, if you’re an…

It’s been a while since we had an experimental solo artist on our pages, so this particular release will suit those who’re into an avant-garde approach to several complementary genres.

Multumult – Now And Then CD (lollipoppeshoppe)
It’s been a while since I introduced some ethno/world music on these pages, so this recording came just in time to serve the occasion. However, this is not a regular ethno or world music album. This one comes with a twist, a carefully assembled mixture of several other genres to be more precise. One thing…
