Mickey Hart- Planet Drum
Amazon.com Supralingua, "beyond language," is the second Planet Drum album produced by Mickey Hart. More Latin than African, Hart combines compelling production techniques with power players of the drumming world including: Zakir Hussain, master of the North Indian tabla; Giovanni Hidalgo; conguero great from Puerto Rico, Sikiru Adepoju, a disciple of Babatunde Olatunji (a member of the first incarnation of Planet Drum) on dundun; bassist Bakithl Kumalo; and David Garibaldi, traps player. Promising to surpass words, ironically the first track, "Angola," features chanting by The Gyüto Monks Tantric Choir. Supralingua grooves but it lacks the excitement of the self-titled Planet Drum and the "steppin' out" of each virtuoso. --Cristina Del Sesto From the Label The conceptual follow-up to Mickey Hart's Grammy-winning 1991 Planet Drum album, Supralingua finds Hart leading the Planet Drum ensemble forward into new realms of global fusion and sonic sculpture. Featuring some of the most well-respected players in the world music genre, the album pairs Mickey's trademark array of instrumentation from cultures around the globe with contemporary music-making technology, and fleshes it out with inspired and exquisite vocalizations. Supralinga ("beyond words") proffers a broad and extremely rich palette of sounds that will boldly lead world music into the new millennium. An extremely strong album, this release is a vivid representation of Mickey's lifetime of musical exploration
