Music Recommendation: Ojos de Brujo - Techari
5/04/2006
I discovered Ojos de Brujo on LinkTV last summer. They have rocked my world.
I was immediately taken by their gypsy flair, the intense rhythms (tablas even), the flawless flamenco energy and the subtle fusion of dj/scratchwork/synth. Easily they have become one of my favorite bands ever, and their new album 'Techari' floors me each time I listen to it.
Ojos de Brujo is truly an exciting event in the realm of world music. I cannot recommend Techari highly enough. It's simply breathtaking in its intensity. My only wish is that someday I will speak the language so that I can sing along and know what in the hell I'm saying!
