He’s gathered a super-group that includes guitarist Michael Brook, bassist Michael Manring, trumpeter Jeff Oster and percussionist Karsh Kale. The title is AI-generated and the music was crafted remotely. Hear Whalen, Brook, and Oster talk about their blindfolded creation that sounds like a meeting of Miles Davis, Jon Hassell and Patrick O’Hearn, on Echoes from PRX.

We explore the Arabic fusion of Didon. We talk to producer Carmen Rizzo (Niyaz, Huun-Huur-Tu, Delerium, Alanis Morissette) and Tunisian singer Meriem Ben Amor about their fusion of traditional vocal sounds and electronic arrangements heard on their debut, Tunisian Tale. It is sensual, mystical and mysterious.
