The three restless alchemists who form the crative core of Radio Tarifa - Fain from Castile, Benjamin from Granada, and Vincent from France - continue to reinvent the sounds of the Iberian Mediterranean on the band"s third album. Built from a base of percussion, strings, winds, and vocals, is spiked with electric guitar, krumhorn (Renaissance oboe), Arabic darbuka (an earthenware drum), argul (Egyptian double-clarinet), bagpipes, and assorted other instrumental antiquities and exotica - plus a female guest vocalist. Together, these earthy, traditional ingredients are transformed by a modern sensibility into a lively cross-cultural melange.
