Producers Gardner Cole and Mitchell Markus merge their assorted talents to construct the multifaceted studio experiment M Path. Their first disc, Meeting Rivers, on Markus’ Triloka label, links trance, pop, and traditional Indian music, making this a worthwhile project for listeners of modern world music to investigate. The combination of sampling, percussion, tabla, violin, and the appearance of sarangi master Ramesh Mishra makes for an intriguing, eclectic project. – Al Campbell
