Xavier Rudd & Izintaba - Koonyum Sun
Review by Steven Bishop
Koonyum Sun, the album by Xavier Rudd and Izintaba, is a masterpiece that offers a unique blend of world music, folk, and reggae. The album features uplifting and soulful tracks that are both inspiring and thought-provoking. Xavier Rudd's signature didgeridoo sound, combined with the powerful rhythms of Izintaba, creates a mesmerizing listening experience that transports the listener to a different world.
The album features tracks like "Time to Smile" and "Love Comes and Goes," which are perfect examples of the positive and uplifting messages that the album conveys. The lyrics are simple yet profound, and the melodies are infectious, making it impossible not to tap your feet or sing along. The album also features slower, more introspective tracks like "Bing Ji Ling" and "Fresh Green Freedom," which provide a welcome contrast to the more upbeat tracks.
