Album Info

"Legends of Panipur," the second CD of world music trio Indigo Masala, tells of an imaginary journey to the paradisiacal princedom of Panipur, located about halfway between the Far East and the Midwest, where orient and occident gently touch and blindworm and cobra shake hands. The 12 original compositions offer magical sitar (Yogendra), groovy tabla (Ravi Srinivasan) and impulsive accordion (Arun Leander), enriched with captivating vocals, colourful percussion, exuberant joy, subtle humor and a touch of jazz. "Legends of Panipur" is passionate, energetic, sensitive, meditative and funny - and sometimes all at the same time. Beyond all stylistic limitations the music moves the body as well as the heart and nourishes the spirit as well as the soul - world music for the whole being. Although Indigo Masala has used modern studio technology to create a rich and balanced sound, the trio remains true to its acoustic philosophy: "Legends of Panipur", like its predecessor "Big Gods & Little Animals", was produced exclusively with self-made recordings of acoustic instruments, voices or other natural sound sources - without any samples or electronic sound generators. This creates an immediacy and vitality that is hard to find in today's music market with its revamped, standardized, synthetic mass products. "Legends of Panipur" is made round musically by the contributions of three great guest artists. Susanne Paul was herself a member of Indigo Masala for several years and now brings in some compositions and her incredibly groovy cello. Renowned world-jazz musician Ramesh Shotham plays the South Indian percussion instruments thavil, kanjira and morsing on three tracks. And Markus Brachtendorf, well-known in the folk music scene as head of Lecker Sachen and the Mahones, has not only recorded and produced the album but also enriched it with some vocals. As a finishing touch, there is an unusually original booklet. Yogendra's winking narrations give a lively account of flora and fauna in Panipur and of the customs and manners of its inhabitants. And the creative and tasteful artwork by Christina von Puttkamer with photos by Norbert Klippstein is a real feast for the eyes.
