It’s a great, big, wonderful, scary, complex world out there, and people are making all kinds of music in every corner of it — so much so that you could spend every waking second of your day just trying to keep up. Alternatively, you could do what the heavy hitters do: delegate. And that’s exactly where we come in, with un puñado of the latest world-music rising stars. Think of us as your sonic emissaries, dispatched around the globe to encourage a healthy trade in sounds by the most exciting new artists . . . and to pick up samples while we’re at it. We’ve got your klezmer, your reggae, your forro, your fado, and a whole lot more. We’ve sailed the seven virtual seas and brought back a bounty of musical booty just large enough to fill your iPod. You don’t need a passport — just a willingness to try out something unfamiliar, strange, exotic, enchanting by up-and-coming world musicians.
