Artist: Somi Title Of Album: If The Rains Come First Year Of Release: Oct-27-2009 Label: ObliqSound Genre: R&B, Nu Jazz Quality: Mp3 Bitrate: 192 kbps Total Time: 50:27 min Total Size: 71 Mb With a beautiful voice enhanced by overdubbing techniques, Somi joins the elite ranks of first-class world music jazz-influenced singers with this, her third CD. Joined by the likes of the fabulous electric and acoustic keyboardist Toru Dodo, among others, Somi employs an ethereal, surreal, distanced sound, coupled with earthiness and village ceremonial elements to create soulful tunes that by some standards approach pop music, and in other instances, pure romantic spirit songs. Most of the lyrics are in English (she was born in Illinois) and enunciated well, and embrace themes of home, the great outdoors, love, longing, belonging, and wistfully wondering why. Tracklist: 01.
