Afro Brazilian Project - Ravi 
The Afro-Brazilian Project (travels with the African kora in Brazil)
The Afro-Brazilian Project features legendary Brazilian musicians suchas Marlui Miranda, Robertino Silva, Armando Marcal & Paulo Moura
Midwest Record Recap - Electronic Edition
"Any one who got a taste of Ravi's last world fusion mind blower will be sure to want to hear how he picks it up, moves it
to the other side of the world and gets some of hottest Brazilian
stalwarts to lock into the fold. Genre splicing everything that can fit in comfortably, open eared world beat fans will simply be floored by the scope and depth on sonic display here. A grand time from start to finish is assured.
Reviewed in Wave magazine by Matt Chittock
"With Brazilian influenced club music currently en vogue its nice to
catch up with someone specialising in more Amazonian sounds. This collection is the result of multi-instumentalist Ravi's time in Rio de Janeiro recording with local musicians. His dedication to authenticity is apparent in both the honest reflective music and the fascinating travelogue contained in the sleeve notes. Its slightly melancholy edge marks it out as a welcome change from the usual drums fests masquerading as Brazilian music at your local megastore.

Fire of
the Oracle - Suvarna
I
had the wonderful pleasure, last year of helping my sister,
Suvarna, to musically blossom on her first CD project, "Fire
of the Oracle" in a Indo-clubby mix in which she plays
electric violin and sings, Indian style, after spending
many years in India. The CD is out now! |

So Far - Ravi
Kora so Far reviewed in Sacred Hoop Magazine
"Musicaly it travels into many
worlds, jazz, folk and Indian influences merge seamlessly.
A mellow but invigorating album, I highly recommend
it. Beautiful"
