Having worked with the likes of Don Cherry and Laurie Anderson, there s little doubting the credentials of Ramuntcho Matta. Emotional Rescue have tapped him up for some truly outernational jams that sport African percussion, skronky jazz tones and an engaging minimalism that s hard to resist. The fretless bass and exotic animal cries of -Ecoute- are especially appealing, while the squelchy sound design in -O Clapo- may well do funny things to all who hear it. It s a startlingly original record that serves as a perfect introduction to a lesser known figure in leftfield music with a great heritage behind him.
