Review
One of the most fascinating world music albums of 1998 is by a group that, until success struck, did not really exist. Radio Tarifa are named after a fictitious radio station and play music that sounds indigenous to Iberia but is actually a remarkably organic hybrid of modern styles and ancient traditions. Temporal is a delightful, provocative surprise. Think border music for a borderless world. --Fernando GonzalezWith Mediterranean instruments like the oud, derbuka and ney, Radio Tarifa collapses recognizably Arabic sounds with flamenco rhythms, playing with a flair reminiscent of a traditional Balkan wedding band. (The Spanish ensemble also tackles a 16th-century Sephardic tune and a 12th-century French procession.) Central to Radio Tarifa's charm is the rough-edged voice of Benjamin Escoriza, whose throaty elocution makes his Spanish a terrific blur of clarity and wavering timbre. Aside from the Mediterranean percussion--supplied mainly by the differently-pitched hand drums--Radio Tarifa also dots its grooves with Afro-Cuban inflected bongos and an electric bass, making this global concatenation particularly delightful. --Andrew Bartlett
