Receive

Conrad Praetzel

1998

An East-West blend of spirit and groove.

On Receive, ethno-ambient composer Conrad Praetzel seduces the listener with an exotic combination of Sufi mysticism and electro-organic rhythmic groves.

Receive features Robert Powell and Sufi vocalist Sukhawat Ali Khan, the son of the renowned classical musician Ustad Ali Khan, whose family lineage is descended from the court musicians of Akbar The Great.

Lucinda Williams listed Receive as one of her favorite CDs in Oprah Magazine and on Amazon.com.

“The album is a combination of spellbinding vocals and compelling percussion that compliment the more western instrumentation , together creating a unique hybrid of world influences, western tonalities, and irresistible electronic textures.”

— Ben Kettlewell, Alternate Music Press
