Details:
In Aboriginal lore, the world is intersected by a myriad of Âsong lines,' tracing paths across deserts, mountains, oceans. To follow a line is to seek a destiny. In our digital world of bits and bytes, we follow our song lines along fiber optic highways of pulses, racing through ether space, slipping past barriers of language and culture, forging a new spirit of one world soul.

Clan Chi, Tribe of Life, takes us on a musical journey of the new world voice, mixing instruments and vocal stylists from all continents into a seamless flow. A journey from the first word of world communication, Âhello,' down Avenue ÂB' in New York City, across the romantic ebb of the Mediterranean, over the Mountains of the Moon, sailing toward the Far East accompanied by the relentless beat of a Navaho chant.

Clan Chi is more than world music, it is new world music, global music. I See A Great City, may refer to many places, but for the creators of Clan Chi, it is the capitol of the world, the metropolis of New York. Clan Chi features a community of artists living and working in this extraordinary city. The project took two years to complete and was recorded in London, Los Angles and New York, with the final mixes completed at Irving Place Studios, NYC, just two weeks prior to September 11th.

Traditionally, world music comes from places far from New York. But the artists behind Clan Chi believe outside their brownstone door, amid the matrix of asphalt and concrete, in the clubs and in the streets, the new world music is being forged. By a free flowing combining of vocal traditions, rap, opera, choral, Sufi, Native American, Asian, Zulu, Gregorian, Celtic, club, trance, pop, Clan Chi arrived at an important truth: Peace is found on common ground.
