Korea

The South Korean quartet led by geomungo (traditional Korean zither) player Yoon Jeong Heo takes stylistic building blocks from traditional Asian music, jazz, blues and rock, and from electronica too. The new album "Karma" represents a modern, global kind of music. Whereas it knows no borders.

Karma is an Asian spiritual concept whereby every action inevitably has both physical and spiritual con-sequences. Their music, which combines the complex and the extremely catchy, triggers mental as well as physical reactions. This is a world in which epochs and styles intertwine. www.youtube.com
