Music journalist/DJ Derek Beres has spent the last 3 1/2 years canvassing the world in search of the best traditional and electronic soundforms. In Global Beat Fusion: The History of the Future of Music (OTB Publishing) he traces the emerging scene of global electronica by tracing the mythological and ritualistic uses of music from ancient societies through modern club culture. The book features candid interviews with Bill Laswell, Cheb i Sabbah, Krishna Das, Ojos de Brujo, Mercan Dede, Boban Markovic, Zakir Hussain, Warsaw Village Band and many more. Here is an introduction and table of contents.
