Twelve years after it's first release, Nidi d’Arac presents it's ‘container’ album. 7 tracks already published in it's previous albums released between 1998 and 2007 but rearranged with a new and modern shape and a contemporary sound much closer to it's ‘live’ version.‘The best way to make a song live is to play it. Performing since ’98, it has become important to us to restyle our ‘old’ tracks through the interpretation of the musicians and their instruments that over the years have given birth to our concerts in Italy and abroad .’ A.Coppola A modern version in typical Nidi d’Arac style of ‘Il ballo di S.Vito’ by Italian singer Vinicio Capossela 5 remixes from 5 representative artists, dj and producers of world music in Europe: Gaudi from London with “Ci fice lu mundu” (taken from Bass, Sweat and Tears), Dj ClicK the globetrotter from Paris with “Iphocharia”, Dj MPS Pilot from Amsterdam with a contemporary Kuduro remix of “Quante tarante”, the Portuguese Mr Tos with an elegant down beat version of “25 Giugno” and finally an intense “klama” remixed and reinterpreted by Piers Faccini, the Italo-English singer who for years has been a passionate advocate of the music from Salento. “An inventive and involving overhaul of the traditional Italian folk music form, the taranta” – The Independent “A cool display of the cutting edge sound of contemporary Salento” – Songlines “ this album works best when it hits a loose and raucous bar-room vibe fired by a howling, rhapsodic violin." – The Daily Telegraph “ A classy modern take on Italy’s Taranta” - fRoots “Taranta Container is an exuberantly full-on rock and dub-steeped recording of refreshing originality and power” – The Art Desk “Watch, now, as the Italian south infects the global market with its presence, dignity, and ecstatic music”. – Rootsworld “There’s plenty of interest packed inside”– World Beat Canada “le groupe Nidi d’Arac et sa tarentelle urbaine qui pousse le curseur encore plus loin. Quand la transe devient électrique”. – Radio France
