Azam Ali – Portals Of Grace - Andalusian classical/folk/Celtic/medieval

 

Azam Ali is an Iranian musician/vocalist. She has released several full-length albums with the bands VAS and Niyaz, as well as solo albums.

In 1996, Ali formed "alternative world" group VAS with percussionist Greg Ellis after meeting the year prior at a concert at UCLA. She and her husband, Loga Ramin Torkian, are part of another group, Niyaz, an Iranian acoustic electronic group.

In 2002, Ali released her first solo album, Portals of Grace. This was followed in 2006 by Elysium for the Brave, which reached No. 10 on Billboard's World Albums chart on 23 September 2006. Ali's third album, From Night to the Edge of Day (2011), is a collection of lullabies inspired by her son. Lamentation of Swans – A Journey Towards Silence (2013), Ali's fourth album, is a joint effort with her husband Loga Ramin Torkian that began in 2009 and explores the intimate spaces they had to carve out for themselves to escape the demands of touring.

In 2003 she sang "Inama Nushif" in the fictional Fremen language for the soundtrack to the 2003 Sci Fi Channel mini-series Frank Herbert's Children of Dune, written by Brian Tyler. In 2006 she was featured vocals in the movie 300. In 2011, Ali's vocals were featured several times on the soundtrack of Uncharted 3. In 2012, she was the vocalist for Square Enix's Final Fantasy video game tech demo Agni's Philosophy. She appeared as vocalist on the Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 for the track "Pakistan Run".

In September 2013, Ali announced that she would provide vocals for the soundtrack of the film Thor: The Dark World.

Françoise Guimbert – Paniandy (Séga, Maloya)

 

Born June 7, 1945 in Saint-Benoît (Reunion) and died in the same city on March 25, 2022, a pioneer of Maloya in La Réunion island.

She worked as a maid before knowing success on stage. She began singing in the 70's with musicians such as Maxime Laope and Alain Peters, then with Groupe Folklorique De La Réunion she was able to showcase her voice and texts. Her art, Maloya, she sang in its most haunting dimension, the more 'blues'. The Creole language is magnified by her hoarse voice, melancholy and intense.
