Global Trotters - Global Trotters Project volume I – DRIVE

An ensemble of artists from various backgrounds came together to create a unique fusion of electronic and world music elements, reflecting the album's title and concept.

The core contributors to this project include:​

• Hans-Joachim Roedelius: A pioneering German electronic musician, known for his work with Cluster and Harmonia.
  
• Susumu Hirasawa: A Japanese composer and electronic artist, recognized for his solo work and contributions to anime soundtracks.
  
• Kenji Konishi: A Japanese musician and producer, associated with the electronic and experimental music scenes.
  
• Alquimia: An artist contributing both as a composer and musician.​
  

Additional musicians involved in the project:​

• David Bickley: A composer and musician contributing to the album's diverse soundscape.
  
• Felix Jay: Another contributing composer and musician.​
  

The album holds together with a sense of motion — it truly feels like a journey. The sequencing is smooth and deliberate, with each track feeding into the next like interconnected chapters in a travelogue.
For fans of global fusion, downtempo electronica, and groove-driven exploration, DRIVE is a celebration of cultural hybridity, a call to movement, and a soundtrack for wandering souls. Here's hoping Volume II builds on this excellent foundation.
​
Borderless beats with purpose and poise — DRIVE is world music for the wired age.
