VIA LA MUSICA

It is not often that I feel at a total loss for words but I have no idea how I am going to describe this album for you. At times it is world music, at others obviously eastern European, while others progressive, or is it pop? There are samples, music coming in at strange angles. Bits that don't make sense, but then again do, perfectly.

I attempted to listen to this initially while doing something else, but the something else failed miserably as I found my attention taken more and more by the music as I tried to work out what was going on. In the end I decided that I didn't have a clue but was going to enjoy it anyway.
