Музика, която кара кръвта да кипи, душата да лети и краката да танцуват – така звучи една от най-популярните и обичани млади български групи – Оратница. Формацията ще представи дългоочаквания си студиен дебют, издаден от Fusion Embassy на 8 май от 21.00 часа в Студио 5. В албума Оратница изваждат народната музика от прашните рафтове, за да я пресъздадат и възродят по уникален начин. Смесвайки я със съвременните жанрове, те й дават нов живот в уникален стил – мост, който свързва древната красота на българския фолклор и съвременната публика, за да отвори пътя към бъдещето. Бъдете сред първите, които ще преминат по него!|
Real World Gold, Real World Records to... Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan – Mustt Mustt Iconic world music label Real World Records announced a new initiative called Real World Gold. The project focuses on reissues of essential recordings that have been unavailable for a number of years. The series will deliver the reissued albums in batches of ten. The first installment of the series, scheduled for release in Europe on May 21st, ranges from recordings by crucial Real World artists (musicians like the late Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Afro Celt Sound System, Sheila Chandra and the Blind Boys of Alabama) to those of lesser celebrated partnerships, such as Lama Gyurme and Jean-Philippe Rykiel.“There are some wonderful albums in the catalog that still haven’t gone out as far in the world as we’d like them to,” says Real World Records founder Peter Gabriel. “I think there’s a different generation being exposed to world music now.
