The Fareed Haque Group have a sound that will appeal to many while compromising to no one. The Cosmic Hug CD also includes a bonus interactive section including an interview with Fareed Haque discussing his guitar techniques, as well as clips of the Fareed Haque Group performing live. When artists like Medeski, Martin and Wood, Sting, and Joe Zawinul need a stellar guitarist to take their work over the top, they turn to Fareed Haque, who never fails to deliver the six stringed goods. The keyboard sounds on this album are all supremely tasteful without going back to some ridiculous ancient distorted Fender Rhodes Bitches Brew re-hash or a way too-thick sounding Medeski type organ sound. 14 people found this helpful.

Guitarist Fareed Haque's Cosmic Hug is in many ways similar to the early-'70s fusion of Miles Davis although without utilizing any horns. The electric piano of Dan Limmer is very reminiscent of the era, as is the exotic use of Kalyan Pathak's tabla.

Cosmic Hug sports album art depicting two Indian women fondling each other’s breasts, nearly giving away roughly half the album’s game-plan: to excite with tabla-underpinned, sitar swarming grooves. But the sitar turns out to be a sitar-guitar-played by classically trained guitarist Fareed Haque-not quite the real thing, which ends up being justifiable as the movements of Gulab Jammin and Fh/Sk aren’t meant to be traditional Indian ragas by any stretch

Fareed Haque is a modern guitar virtuoso. Steeped in classical and jazz traditions, his unique command of the guitar and different musical styles inspire his musical ventures with tradition and fearless innovation. Fareed Haque is a modern guitar virtuoso.
