RAFI'S REVENGE is the kind of album that began to pop up with increasing frequency as the '90s wore on; influenced by a wide variety of musical traditions, it transcends its pan-cultural roots to create a new paradigm, bowing to its roots but forging a new, postmodern identity. Throughout this arresting effort, Asian Dub Foundation incorporates breakbeats, funky guitar and keyboard riffs, Eastern melodic touches, drum-and-bass, and reggae. The staccato, dance hall-style vocals skip and stutter across the frenetic rhythms and complex musical textures. Though RAFI'S REVENGE is populated largely by electronically generated sounds, there's enough of an organic sensibility (not to mention the various ethnic traditions evoked) to create a winning warmth and accessibility.
