AO - Twirl
- AO's "Twirl" is aptly described by its title, as track after track on this CD inspires the listener to get up and move.
"Drops & Sparks," while it fits musically with the rest of the compositions, seemed a bit out of place, as it was one of only a handful of tracks, along with “Zhaia” and “Na Ha Ye,” performed mostly in English.
The other tracks, such as “Obayo” or “Yei Ha,” represent some very fine world music, with stirring spiritual rhythms and meditative tracks to soothe the soul. The best of these I thought to be “Kaya Kayeh,” which captured my attention with its layered lyrics and hypnotic beat.
In fact, the same description -hypnotic - applies to "Twirl" as a whole, as it transfixes the listener’s attention on each song, often with eye-opening and soul-awakening results.
