Around They Whirled

My latest mix | 10 tracks of folk, soaring along with the jet streams

a sonic flight from the highlands of Perú to the marshes of Florida;
a stopover in 20s Havana, and on to the Greek isles;
an audience with both a Roma band, and a Ukrainian fiddler king;
further along to timeless Egypt and Addis Abeba's queen of groove;
a Sanskrit devotional whisks you from deepest India to enchanting Bali;
and ending with a lullaby to the moon, in the land of the rising sun.

Deutsch Hip-Hop der Alte Schule

Rakein's Deutschrap and Rockmix

Funny (and totally true) decade-old anecdote:

My college German professor was so cool, she let me bring in Napster-burnt CDs of Bushido, Nina MC, & Die Fantastischen Vier, translating them for the entire class to learn slang from.

Until, that is, certain lyrics made them edelweiss cheeks flush with embarrassment!

:-P
