Jazz / World Fusion / Indie / Indian / Dark Ambient / Avant-Garde / Dub / Experimental Rock
Originally released in 1988, this album marked one of the truly successful world fusion creations, which Rhythm Magazine said symbolizes "the birth of a new era in music". It's a direct, transcendent exchange between six acclaimed musicians from diverse cultures, including L. Shankar, Zakir Hussain, Nicky Skopelitis, Daniel Ponce, Aiyb Dieng and producer/bassist Bill Laswell. This CD is a true American melting pot of deeply tangled roots, merging East and West to create a new music soundscape. At it's core, there's Indian music, and somewhere underneath lies flashes of the slow rustic lope of American country music.
Exquisitely repackaged by Russell Mills for Meta, this re-release features a bonus CD slightly longer than the original featuring ambient remixes of the first and last tracks. Transforming them into elegant, elongated ragas, Laswell brings the tabla to the fore, and adds further colouration via incursions by the Material Strings, led by Karl Berger. A patent Laswell ambient mix translation entirely in the spirit of the original.
The remix CD was two 20-plus minutes track remixing the opening and closing tracks of the original album. If "Hear No Evil" is Laswell's creative blueprint, then the remixes was the update and progress report of Laswell's sound, circa 1999. The deep-dub bass and strings harnessed the ethereal of the original recording, the high end bass tones replaced by subharmonic bass motifs that are trance-like. Samples emerged occasionally to supplement the exotic beats. Washes of ambient sounds keeps reminding us the music might come form a netherworld that never existed. The remixes, while lengthy, takes the listener through an exotic journey through beautifully-crafted sound collages.
In hindsight, perhaps the opening track "Lost Roads" is his statement of intent of the course of creativity Laswell was to embark on later, but thankfully he was able to absorb different culture around the world to improve his production skills, in his continue pursuit of the perfect sound. "Hear No Evil" is a nice re-introduction/interpretation and summary of a master producer's work past and future positive.
