Quote:
Israeli composer Shye Ben Tzur, and Jonny Greenwood and Indian ensemble the Rajasthan Express have announced details of a new album, Ranjha.
The album brings together a cast of 21 musicians, with the Rajasthan Express providing the rhythmic and brass heft that defined the group's earlier work. Also appearing is Tom Skinner, the jazz drummer and Smile member, who plays on the album's title track, released today. Ben Tzur, who relocated to India after first encountering the country's music as a teenager, remains focused on the physical impact of the sound. “You feel this music on your body,” he says. “Then it affects your emotional state when you hear the melodies. Then come the words and the lyrics.”
