PGM NOTE : a Middle Eastern electrofusion journey

INTRO: That's SMADJ...out of Tunisia by way of Paris.
He brings together the venerable oud and sultry rhythms of
North Africa with the latest electronic sounds.

Today the mediasphere is alive with a new kind of "world music."
The old masters of the great ethnic traditions have a global
audience, while DJ's sample beats and create new mixes for
the intelligent dance floor. Almost any musician can have their
own studio and release their music worldwide online — with
photos, video and text on sites like MySpace.com. The good
ones travel, perform, and build worldwide networks of
collaborators and audience. The Internet ties it all
together. For these musicians, even in the midst of all the
political struggles of today — it really is a new world.

On this transmission of Hearts of Space, a journey in the
Middle Eastern electronic fusion zone called EQUILIBRIUM.
