Zap Mama - ReCreation

We live in challenging times. Economic, social and political forces in every part of our interconnected globe are triggering an unprecedented transformation in the way we govern, the way we do business, the way we interact and the way we live. For many of us, the challenges can be overwhelming. Thats when its time to look at ourselves, our relationships and the world as a whole from a new perspective. Zap Mama has a plan. This multicultural musical entity led by Afropean vocalist and songwriter Marie Daulne is sending everyone on vacation, and the first and only item on the itinerary is ReCreation (HUCD 3159), their new album set for worldwide release on May 26, 2009, on Heads Up International, a division of Concord Music Group. In addition to a rhythm section rooted in a rich Brazilian vibe, ReCreation also boasts a guest list of high-profile vocalists including Bilal, G. Love, actor Vincent Cassel (La Haine, Oceans Twelve) and several others. The album offers everything the title suggests a time to make a break, to renew, and to play. That moment when you are relaxing and enjoying yourself, says Daulne, is the perfect moment to create a new person within yourself to heal yourself and let go of all the negative aspects of your life. In those times when you relax, you recreate yourself.
