Review by Vivien Lee

Umzaza is the latest album by Marcus Corbett, a British-Indian musician known for his unique blend of Indian classical music and Western folk. The album is a stunning showcase of Corbett's musical prowess, featuring a wide range of instruments and styles that come together to create a truly unique listening experience.

The album opens with "Strung Deep," a hauntingly beautiful track that sets the tone for the rest of the album. From there, Corbett takes listeners on a journey through a variety of musical landscapes, from the upbeat and danceable "Barometer" to the more introspective "The Drifter."

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Birha," a collaboration with the renowned Indian classical singer Vidya Shah. The song features Shah's soaring vocals over Corbett's intricate guitar work, creating a mesmerizing blend of traditional and contemporary styles.
