Hold Them

Prince Jammy's Dub / Dub Store

‘Yes we nice, yes we nice… Hold them, music, hold them, yes, we control them… no we nah go let them stray.’ Dancehall manners — on the rhythm Delgado used for Rasta People — as clinically murderous as all-time EJ hits for Jammys like Rock Them One By One and Turn Up The Heat.

Saudi Arabia

Mohammed Aman, The Tradition Of Hejaz

Ocora

Fine singing and oud-playing, with zither and violin, and the percussion which characterises the hejaz style — nasgar and naqrazan, darbuka and tar, both held at the same time in the left hand, struck by the right.

Yemen

Mohammed Isma'il al-Khamisi: Song And Percussion

Ocora

The out-of-this world, near-extinct tones and effects of copper plate, balanced on either thumb, with left-hand fingers playing ornamentally, the melody with the right, as accompaniment to singing in the Sanaan style, setting courtly poetry in classical Arabic.

Rune Grammofon

Hats off to the Oslo lot, back with such fascinating, dauntless, new-broom musicality after the departure of their drummer — the trio grappling beatlessly, intently with Hammonds, in the deep space charted by Ra.
