The music makes a whole picture with the cover. You imagine yourself in a deserted rocky place - that is exactly the place for sounds like these.

Between the time when we were hand-stickering our first release (I:Cube - Disco cubizm) in the living room of my former apartment at Rue de la Goutte d'Or and today, 20 years have passed. Twenty years in which I have tried to show inventiveness, perseverance, and... surprise. The surprise comes primarily from the artists, who’ve been my main motivation as well as my source of energy during all this time. I want to thank them all here, first and foremost I:Cube, who was the first to be signed and with whom I now share this selection on this double CD.

Al Mothlath - Dead Traveler

/// Fortuna Records Presents /// 

• Tsvia Abarbanel - Soul Of The East EP •

Fortuna Records brings you one of the rarest, most exotic recordings to ever come out of the Middle East. This lost and forgotten record is the true meaning of east meets west and is bound to leave you craving for more.
In the late sixties, Israel had a large Yemenite community in which original folk artists started blending western instrument into traditional songs. The biggest name of the time was the innovative Aharon Amram, who was the first to introduce electric guitars, bass, Farfisa organs, and drum kits to traditional Yemeni rhythms, conventionally played by tapping fingers on an olive-oil tin can. Tsvia Abarbanel and 'Piamenta's Guys' took a few steps ahead into the unexplored territory of Yemenite jazz. The synergy between Albert Piamenta, one of Israel's leading funk and jazz arrangers, and Tzvia Abarbanel with her extraordinary voice and haunting melodies, is something like Mulatu Astatke meets Yma sumac. The strange rhythm patterns, the enchanted performance of the musicians and the amazing voice of Tsvia all come together to create a raw and unique style, capturing the sound of the warm desert wind and its glowing dust.
