Alejandro Franov - Khali

Khali by Alejandro Franov

Argentinian songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Alejandro Franov is one of the key figures of the alternative folk and world music scene of his country, brought to worldwide critical acclaim by singer/sonwriter and actress Juana Molina. Franov collaborated with Juana Molina on three of her albums, "Segundo" (2000), "Tres Cosas" (2002) and "Son" (2006). With "Khali" Staubgold is proud to present his first worldwide release, after five solo
albums which have only been released in South America and Japan.
"Khali" which is mainly based on three instruments - the African mbira, the Paraguayan harp arpa and the Indian sitar - is the result of Franov's
studies in African and Arabic music, especially the music of the Shona from Zimwbabwe. He carefully combines these unique instruments with
percussion, voices and minimal electronics in order to create a comfortably floating stream of world music in the purest sense, hardly relating to any
certain country or region. …File under: electronica/folk/world
