1	This Child (1995) more music like this by Susan Aglukark add to wishlist On this release, Aglukark consolidated her sound, and with the assistance of Chad Irschick (who had contributed to her 1992 release Arctic Rose) she managed to produce an album full of terrific songs with some heavy messages in the lyrics. This album crosses boundaries, so it is difficult to label its sound. Aglukark combines traditional native ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $15.31!

As a result, his records always get ... see all copies from $14.64! new only from $14.64!
3	Our Love Will Never Die (2005) by Randy Wood add to wishlist The third album from Canadian Cree Randy Wood is a solo outing (as his first two were), just voice over the pulse of the drum. There's a lulling intimacy to the songs here, be they lullabies and romantic songs, but putting them in the context of the traditional Cree round dance. For something so sparse, it never feels empty. The constant rhythm is ... see all copies from $11.75! new only from $11.75!

13	Music of Indonesia, Vol. 20: Indonesian Guitars (1999) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Smithsonian Folkways made its reputation by digging in the dustiest of archives and traveling to the most remote regions of the American countryside in search of music that is on the edge of extinction.

17	Rough Guide to Arabesque (2002) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist People are familiar with rai or some of the more traditional music to emerge from North Africa and the Middle East, but lately there's also been an undercurrent of more adventurous music -- hip-hop and electronica.

22	Digdig (2002) more music like this by René Lacaille & Bob Brozman add to wishlist This may be an early contender for world music album of the year for 2002.

23	Disappearing World (1989) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Included are segued music and found sound from an assortment of peoples whose sole link is that Britain's Granada TV picked them for a series on "endangered" cultures, from Kenya's Rendille to the Hungarian Vlachs via Siberia, Morocco, Venezuela and points north, south, east and west.
