Music fans of many genres know the name Miles Copeland. He's the brother of Police drummer Stewart Copeland, manager of that fairly successful band, creator of I.R.S Records, and for a time, the man behind Ark 21 Records, which brought to the West the sounds of the Arab world, including releases by Hakim, Khaled, and Cheb Mami.
SoundRoots provides information about and commentary on ethnic arts and world cultures, particularly what's known around here as "world music." Frequent mp3 postings too, so you can listen while you read. Live Locally, Groove Globally!
The SoundRoots / Spin The Globe events calendar lists dance and world music performances, workshops, and festivals, along with other relevent happenings. Provided in conjunction with the world music radio showSpin the Globe on KAOS-fm.
Audio files are posted for promotional purposes only, and files will vanish after a brief stay. CD reviews and mp3 postings are intented particularly to highlight under-appreciated, obscure, or out-of-print "world music." If you like the music, buy the CD, get full-quality sound & album art, and support the artist! Any mp3 will be promptly removed at the request of the artist/label.
SoundRoots encourages you to not just attend global culture events, but to hold and create your own.
