HOTTEST MUSIC
Last year, Algerian DJ, Cheb I Sabbah, made such an impression with his eclectic mix of traditional rhythms and electronic beats that he returns with his new release, La Kahena Remixed (July 22). For a bit of nostaligia there's Edie Brickeli and The New Bohemians who make their return to the stage after more than 10 years (July 28). Also, Amadou and Mariam, "the blind couple from Mali" who have become superstars in the World Music scene (July 16).
The ever-present music of Brazil is represented by Seu Jorge who brings his socially motivated music and odd Bowie cover (July 2), while singer/songwriter Lenine opens The Brazilian Film Festival with songs from his U.S. debut (August 6). If you think Mexico is about mariachis and Nortena music, consider hearing The Mexican Institute of Sound (August 5), the electronic music project of EMI Executive Camilo Lara. Finally, have a little heart and pay tribute to The Big Easy by dropping $30 to charity (the money will go to The New Orleans Musicians' Clinic) and check out Soul to Soul, Irma Thomas and The Hot 8 Brass Band (August 12).
