While not world music per se, Globe Trekker, the soundtrack to the TV series of the same name, is definitely global in its outlook. Ambient composer-producers like Ian Richie (Laurie Anderson) and Nina Miles (Lenny Kravitz) are among those who create lush soundscapes that feature ethnic samples. Ritchie's 'Old Man of Crete,' for example, uses a traditional folk song by an island native as a springboard to a rich Mediterranean-flavored piece, while Daniel Pemberton builds a sample from Rio's Carnivale into an uplifting dance track. In some ways it seems as though the entire world is here--from the American South ('Don Strings') to Thailand ('Lahu'), Canada ('Smithsonian'), and Madagascar ('Valiha')--all filtered through an electronic prism. At times it can seem a little comfortable. But this is music made for the show, and in that light it does push the envelope a bit while keeping a strong, graceful integrity.
Since the first Globe Trekker TV show was produced, the team of composers who create the soundtrack have been pushing back the boundaries of television music. The scores blend music and sounds recorded on location into compositions and arrangements by musicians more usually associated with hit records and classical albums.
Globe Trekker Volume 1 contains music from Globe Trekker episodes in Thailand, Malaysia, Ghana, Rio de Janeiro, Egypt, Ethiopia, Madagascar, Cuba, Finland, Canada, Sri Lanka, Australia, Papua New Guinea, and Deep South (USA).
