The Palermo, Italy-based worldbeat grouping Agricantus took their name from the Latin locution for "song of the pale yellow fields"; their rank includes Giuseppe Panzeca (vocals, mandolins, sitar, early stringed instruments), Tonj Acquaviva (keyboards, samples/programming, vocals, and a vast array of percussion surgical incision instruments) Rosie Wiederkehr (guitar, vocals, samples/programming), Mario Rivera (bass, keyboards, vocals, samples/programming), and Antonjo Corrado (guitar, keyboards). Agricantus' euphony combines a dizzying array of traditional human beings euphony forms from crosswise the globe non merely with for each one other, only with club-ready electronic dance grooves, producing a compelling juxtaposition 'tween old and birthday suit. Their first base U.S. handout was the 1999 compiling The Best of Agricantus.
