ANANE - THE EVOLUTION ETHNIC

Here's a really amazing cd. Taken from http://progressive.homestead.com/indoreviews.html is thisarticle:

This is one of the best examples I heard ever from musicians who feel the essence of traditional music and perform it as if it is, but also exactly like, a kind of progressive jazzrock, with mostly new,modern electric and a few old acoustic instruments. This blend is so incredibly complete, with a great amount of amazing rhythms. This sounds like a kind of Canterbury jazzrock based upon Indonesian ethno-folk. The folk are mostly from Gayonese origin. There is a great amount of ideas and instruments which are mixed perfectly, and with some distance in colours from each chosen instruments. This perfect mix with an intelligent choice of complexity alone already makes the album a must for folkrock, jazz & progressive rock lovers ! This isn’t just a dialogue, but a perfect blend between these genres.
Slightly different is "Perueren" which has some great flamenco guitar and waltz theme to it, but also this is mentioned as a local song !?
The group consist of 7 members, with two additional talents.

It is a bit puzzling how to see fit the bonus track, which a remix of one of the tracks with club beats. This is however done with a certain playful and humorousness, and cleverness, I'm sure this will not only satisfy some extra people from different interests and approaches and expectations. It is another great additional inclusion as a fine conclusion to the CD.
The album was nominated at AMI (anugerah Musik Indonesia) Awards 2005. A must have.

Honestly, I'm not kidding, the best album I've heard in a long time this one!!! Amazing musicians and I'm not surprised that they thank SAWUNG JABO on the cover this stuff is not very far from some of the stuff I've seen at SAWUNG JABO concerts. AMAZING!

This cd came out in 2005....
