thee, horse who floated freely

these two albums are couple of my favorites:

ramona cordova makes music that is a mixture of folk, fairy tales, kid music, and gypsy tunes. the first song kind of weirded me out with his high pitched tiny tim like voice...then i caught myself listening to the entire album over and over.

after finding out about ramona cordova, i checked the label's website he was on (clapping music). they put out some awesome records and are distributed through AS Corpus, who also puts out awesome albums. my favorite discovery there is thee, stranded horse.
thee, stranded horse is yann tambour of ENCRE. he plays the plays the kora, sings, and romances the ladies. this album is very much in the folk genre, but it sounds like a french guy singing like an irish guy playing an african instrument. good times!
