5.0 out of 5 stars Bilmadim, 27 Aug 2004
By A Customer
I really didn't know what to expect when I bought this CD!
I'd read an article that said this woman (Usmanova) was a big star in the middle east and had shifted somewhere in the region of 8 million records.
I was half prepared for some arabic chanting over tabla sounds, but I couldn't have been more wrong.
The music is... quite intense with a lot of bass, and cool jangly guitars. Usmanova's vocals are exceptional and with an all round production and cathy tunes, this album is a real gem.

Iam glad that I bought it because I don't reckon there's a bad track on it.
If you have an open mind I recommend this cd. I don't think you'll be disappointed!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderfully fresh east-meets-west album, 5 Jul 2009
Yulduz Usmanova is the most renowned living female singer of her native Uzbekistan, and a major star in the Middle East and Central Asia (she left her home country a few years ago due to the political upheaval and the repressive regime). This record, however, is one she made in the space of a week, from starting pad to finish, with the British new-wave/dub professor Jah Wobble and the Jamaican guitarist Ernest Ranglin, who was past seventy at the time. That's about the extent of I knew before I bought the disc, on the strength of an appreciative review in 'Mojo'. And it really is exceptional. Maybe not a full-blown masterpiece, some of the tracks are sketchy ambient pieces with droning synth/bass lines, jangling guitars and slow, punching drums across a wide open range, but the whole totally escapes any trap of world music kitsch: Usmanova's singing is stunning, rich and clear, and Wobble's skilful production and sensitive basslines wind themselves around her and furnishes a frame that's got enough potent melodic force on its own to avoid melting off.

Both composing and production have a wonderful openness and an echoey, clear depth that evokes deserts, camel caravans ("Orol Denyz Usmanova" - the name referring to the Aral Sea), cities buried in sand and at the same time an urgent now. The whole thing was clearly a close collaboration, a meeting of minds, there is no feeling that Wobble is pushing his own production ideas over a gorgeous voice. This is a record that stays in one's mind long after listening, and which repays a hearing again and again.
