Madonna, Travis, R.E.M. Repeat The 'Mantra'
Madonna, Travis, and R.E.M. are among the artists who have contributed tracks
to the forthcoming benefit album "Mantra Mix," to be released Oct. 24 on the
Narada World label. Proceeds from the album have been earmarked for the
Foundation For The Preservation Of The Mahayana Tradition (FPMT), which aids
the Tibetan refugee community throughout the world.
Other artists offering songs include David Byrne, Fatboy Slim, the Chemical
Brothers, Suede, Massive Attack, and Ben Harper. According to a statement, all
tracks were chosen because they contain "some positive element" appropriate
"for inclusion on an album to honor The Dalai Lama."
The release will be augmented with a bonus CD featuring music from electronic /
experimental acts such as Chris Hinze & Junkie XL, composer Philip Glass, and a
prayer from the Dalai Lama himself. The interactive portion of the disc offers
contact information for Tibetan charities, musical instrument demonstrations,
and more.
