about

Full of Native history and dreamlike elements, Robert Mirabal's Warrior Magician picks up where his 1995 release Song Carrier left off, painting Native portraits with flute while expanding into a fuller, more modern sound. Mirabal artfully uses light synth, didgeridoo, and contemporary rhythms for a sound that carries Native heritage in its arms while walking into the future. As on Song Carrier there are quietly beautiful Native pieces that invite close listening, but unlike Song Carrier, Warrior Magician offers more distinctly shaped melodies and compositions. Highlights include the gently galloping "Warrior Magician," where a flute sings plaintive verses before guitar and drums chime in with tender, pounding rhythms; "Memoir Chaco" with its Native drumming and lovely mystic overtones; and "Corn Dance," where Mirabal, in a kind of "jam," meanders lovingly with wooden flute. A strong collection by an inspired artist. --Karen K. Hugg
