Eric Kamen and World Music

[MusicInMe]

So I’m really getting into World Music these days. And I found this new artist on MySpace, and I’m really digging his World-amalgamated with HipHop and a touch of Flamenco guitar. The artist’s name is Eric Kamen.

And I found him at www.myspace.com/erickamen

Very groovy fusion! I think you guys will find him very enjoyable!

I totally just found out about Eric Kamen and I got his CD and love it! There is nothing else like it out there right now. Glad to see someone else is a fan too.

I hear that he has already been a hip-hop/R&B producer and you can definitely tell with the types of beats used on many of the tracks and the sound of the CD. So far my favorite song is called "Moshi Moshi" because of the percussion and the beautiful Spanish guitar sound. Just great to chill to while imagining you are somewhere far away and exotic. Did you get the CD yet? It's all great.

Thanks for the link to his MySpace page. If you want to check out his home page it's at:
www.nativeunit.com


And I think the CD goes on sale today (Feb. 14th) so check it out at Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000ALM...ance&n=5174 (that's where I got it) And I've also seen it on iTunes and CDbaby (www.cdbaby.com).

If you like it, spread the word, because independent artists need us to help them share their music.

I need to set up a MySpace account. I will add this once I do (once I work out how to use myspace anyway!)

Wow. I, too, am getting into World Music, and this is a great find.

He has a wonderful way of blending all these genres together to make one beautiful sound.
