| | Cody Pueo Pata He Aloha CD Cody Pueo Pata Discography of CDs
On his sophomore release, Cody Pueo Pata puts out a nice mix of original compositions and standard songs and hula chants. His focus is largely on tradition, but in a reverent manner, rather than one of sheer rigorous preservation. Older techniques, mostly in falsetto, are used throughout the album to accentuate the timelessness of the music. Hula chants sprinkled here and there provide a more primal version of the same message. The excellent, and somewhat comic "Laga-Haga" jam makes use of an old tradition using gibberish as a lyrical core to confuse the uninitiated (or unwanted) listener. Musically, the sound is quite clean with some minor steel guitar and rhythm in the background, and a piano throughout. While the piano doesn't fit with the strictest sense of tradition, the instrument works well for the lazy afternoon sound that takes up most of the work here. Compositions hold a strong sense of time and place with a relaxed feel, looking back a couple of generations for their inspiration it would seem. Pata's falsetto is really the key to the performance though, avoiding specific time-locked sounds in favor of a floating, lilting sound that could just as easily be from the golden age of Hawaiian exotica. For a good dose of traditional Hawaiian music with the conveniences of modern recording and cultural sensitivity built in, He Aloha will make a fine addition to the racks. ~ Adam Greenberg Cody Pueo Pata He Aloha Songs | 1. | Momi O Ka Pakipika |

| | Youssou N'Dour Egypt CD (2004)
He Aloha songs
$14.99 International pop star Youssou N'Dour explores of the themes and sounds of Senegal's Sufi culture on this striking 2004 release. Markedly different than the artist's other albums, on which African elements combine with Caribbean influence and various American styles (including soul, jazz, and rock), EGYPT moves away from N'Dour's trademark pop and deep into the territory of traditional religious music. Though characterized by an undercurrent of West African rhythms and inflections, the sound here--as the title indicates--draws on North African and Middle Eastern Arab music, and features such regional instruments as the oud, the arghul (a double-reed bamboo flute), tablas, and various Arab Gulf percussion.
There is a distinct classical aura here (the personnel list includes an arranger, a conductor, and a score manager). The Fathy Salama Orchestra, which backs N'Dour throughout, features--in addition to Egyptian flutes and drums--first and bass ...

| | Manny Oquendo On The Move! (Muevete!) CD (1996)
He Aloha CD music
$12.49 The strong and powerful influence of African music is hard to miss on this CD, which illustrates the rich cultural heritage of blacks in Bahia and Northeastern Brazil (a region that has produced many musical greats). Legends like Tito Puente, Tito Rodriguez, and Machito were on the scene, so aspiring young salseros assumed they had no choice but to give 200 percent. The percussionist and his longtime partner Andy Gonzales bring that unwavering work ethic to On the Move! (Muevete!), an outstanding live date recorded at Bimbo's 365 Club in San Francisco. When a 65-year-old Oquendo and his band Libre tear into Bobby Capo's familiar cha-cha "Piel Canela" and infectious originals like "No Cuentes," "Chaquilla Ideal," "Oquendo Y Libre" (a celebration of New York's salsa scene), and the descarga (Afro-Cuban jam) "Muevete un Poco," it's clear that a genuine master of salsa is very hard at work. Though salsa dominates this set, Oquendo triumphantly ...
