Review:

 

First of all I have to explain that I bothered to write all 50 tracks, because

it matters. It'll help you get the feel of this release. This is probably the

most special release to land in my stereo for a long long time. It's the first

time in years that I play a CD and feel the true Goa spirit. Not because of

the music- just because of the Spirit.

Holidays in Kosov@ is a very special project of few people that decided that we

can matter, we can make a difference- here is the product of people that do

not only talk about the spirit, feel the spirit, or even live the spirit- they

made the effort to spread it to others, to others in great need. A group of

artists- musicians and jugglers, went on a journey in ruined Kosovo, a place

where humanity failed, to try and bring happiness to people who needed it.

This CD is all about that journey, it's a musical diary, thoughts, words,

stories melted together in music. It really takes you there and all together

it manages to convey a very clear message- we're all in this together, things

are fucked big time, and yes, we can do something about it.

The music is varied and has everything in it- psytrance, progressive, techno,

ambient, trip-hop, psychedelic rock, dub, and more. Mostly very good stuff and

anyway there's no point in listening to individual tracks here. There's even

an Israeli song of a very special band called Sheva, that makes amazing world

music with a message of peace. The song is called Salam (peace in Arabic) and

is sung here by Casey & a lot of kids that survived the war- my freestyle

translation:

Peace will come upon us

Peace will come upon us

Salam- upon us and the whole world

Salam, Salam, Salam.

Brought tears in my eyes. Thanks to all the people involved in this, keep it

going.

Bottom Line: Buy this. It's a bit hard to track, but worth it.
