Grammy nominee! - Best World Music Album

With Guest Vocalists  Peter Gabriel    *   Robert Plant

Enhanced CD:  Real World Multimedia has updated the interactive "Noodle" game, allowing listeners to create their own remixes of the massive dance track Colossus.

This self-produced album took shape in a tiny basement studio in London's Hackney neighborhood over the two years since the enduringly popular, Grammy- nominated VOLUME 2: RELEASE.  The Afro Celts have been remarkably prolific, building an arsenal of massive, monster dance epics and ballads of intricate melody and layered texture.

For certain tracks, the band imagined counterpoints to Iarla Ó Lionáird's soaring Gaelic and N'Faly Kouyate's hypnotic African vocals - and invited Peter Gabriel and Robert Plant to lend their unmistakable voices.  The resulting songs, When You're Falling and Life Begin Again, are uncannily suited to their singers, striking the listener as immediate classics.

Simon Emmerson and James McNally drive a more global collective than ever - showcasing the band's African edge and featuring Johnny Kalsi's thunderous dhol drums much more prominently; introducing Arabic flavors; and including numerous guests, such as Altan's Mairead Ni Mhaonaigh on fiddle.  Ó Lionáird's lyrics are in English as well as Gaelic for the first time.  Russell and Mass program wickedly deep grooves - binding Afro Celt's latest explorations solidly to their roots in London's electronic dance scene.
