Bamboo

The UK's Bamboo sound like a collective of world music jumbled all together and then strung out in a hypnotic, synth-laden pattern, ebbing and flowing, an intoxicating swirl of sound that's both exotic and strangely familiar.  The band's new album "The Dragon Flies Away" is awash in different faraway sounds woven together with pop beats and upbeat dance moves, an almost cinematic opus relating tales about the Hannya demon mask from Japanese Noh theater (i had to look it up).  Listen to "Wake Up Your Heart" below and get the record from Upset The Rhythm.
