Sound Tracks


Four reporters -- two men and two women -- travel the world to tell compelling stories by combining the adventure of a travel show, probing in-depth interviews of a newsmagazine, and soul-satisfying pleasures of a music program. The pilot episode tackles the following topics: the legend of Afrobeat creator and superstar Fela Kuti; the raging popularity of Vladimir Putin's sexy propaganda song; the creators of "Borat" use music to try to make amends with the insulted people of Kazakhstan; and the mood of a cozy Portuguese bar with diva Mariza.
