look for old records/repressed cds that contain recordings made by
someone droppping a mic in the middle of a tribe and hitting record.
you cant go wrong :)
i always find this stuff used in world sections of local cd shops.
sometimes the wire runs articles on this sort of stuff too, which i find
nice, though i still have yet to hunt down anything that has been written
up in that magazine -- but i find it groovy that they cover the
music/field recordings.
possible labels: folkways, jvc world of sound
im sure someone could give you more.
afrika is a pretty cool track. i recently pulled it to play in a set with
a bunch of muslimgauze, t singh (the one song i like :), field recordings,
aphex (that fun new almost tribalish track on the _or_ comp) .. and stuff
like that.
the african/mid east percussion sound really has kept my attention.
good stuff.
