St Germain Des Pres Tourist ReviewThe Tourist is, if I am not mistaken, St.Germain's first full-length CD since "Boulevard", five years ago. The long wait was well worth it. Published by the Blue Note records (which speaks by itself), the Tourist's jazz samples are lovingly reinvented and seamlessly altered and mixed with modern, 'urban' rhythm and beats and completed by Ludovic Navarre and additional participation of Pascal Ohze (trumpet), Edouard Labor (sax, flute), Alexandre Destrez (keys), Idrissa Diop (talking drum), Carneiro (percussion) and Claudio de Qeiroz (baryton) plus the sonorous guitar of the "legendary (Ernest) Ranglin, one of the great unsung guitarists in jazz and Caribbean music" (The Penguin Guide to Jazz on CD). Particularly interesting is the transformation of "Harry's Philosophy" from a desolate blues miniature of John Lee Hooker (taken from the soundtrack to "Hot Spot", by M. Davis, J.L. Hooker, A. Cooper, T. Mahal and R. Rogers) to almost cheerful dance track with a "twist". Other highlights of my choice: the voice of Marlena Shaw over a loop of Dave Brubeck's Take Five ("Rose Rouge"), excellent "Land of..." with soulful introduction on organ and piano, and great funky saxophones, delicate guitar by E. Ranglin on "Montego Bay Spleen", the upbeat spider piano dance of the "Latin Note"... and there are plenty of other musical pleasures in the 60 minutes of the Tourist.
"Boulevard" was very good, but "Tourist" is better, more dense, rounded and mature. Get them both! Beautiful art work for the cover, too.St Germain Des Pres Tourist OverviewExclusive Import only 2 CD set includes a three track bonus CD which features an exclusive mix of 'Sure Thing' (ToddEdward's Deepline Remix) along with two mixes of his firstsingle, 'Rose Rouge' (Blaze Early Shelter Mix) & (SpillerRogue Mix).

Cafe Del Mar - Volume 7 ReviewIn no way I do not mean wrong here, but this cd is well... First as the person before wrote before Jose Padilla is no longer involved in Cafe del Mar projects, for whatever reason his personal touch is not on this cd. The new dj Bruno has skills in this style, he knows the formula and the mood, but his efforts are far beyond reaching what Padilla built for himself along 6 previous cd's. With the evident up's and down's his compilations went on to be an example of Balearic music worldwide, giving the people who could not afford the Ibiza experience for themselves. His style ended up being copy by greedy corporate people that knew the well deserve success of his compilations. Volumen Two and Five have to be my personal favourites and I would recommend them to newcomers to the series. I mean after 6 times hitting gold the concept has done so much for us, that I guess Padilla himself though it was time to move on. I have no complaints for the Art (which features a summer stylish beach catalogue with a couple of models enjoying the good life with plenty of Sun and Sea) Despite a couple of solid tunes, the fact of incorporating Bush (a well respected Rock band from the U.K) in the form of a mix from dowtempo monsters Nightmares on Wax makes you wonder, why, has Balearic music gone rock? If you are an addict of the Cafe del Mar series then buy this cd, you might actually find something new but if you are starting your collection buy 2,3,4,5,6 instead.Cafe Del Mar - Volume 7 OverviewSeventh Volume Of The Successful Series That Spotlights Some Of The Best Ambient-Trance Tracks Making The Rounds Recently.Artists Included: Moby, Lux, Bush, Bent, Uko & More.

1969 ReviewI adore Pink Martini in all their manifestations... I'll admit, not being a Japanese speaker, that this album is a bit heavy to chew for me, but the music is just astounding (as it always is with this amazing "small jazz orchestra"). I miss China, most certainly, and wish her precious pipes and vocal cords a SPEEDY RECOVERY! but Saori Yuki is just as distinctive... just a little different. Beautiful sound, but I find these songs easiest *for me* when played randomly with the other Pink Martini albums... your mileage will vary, but this is a beautiful and as usual an amazing album. ;)1969 Overview

ESL The Soundtrack, Vol. 1 ReviewInside booklet was written that songs are listed the way as they are played in parties at eighteenth street lounge. Record starts off with 70's funky grooves and as the evening matures tunes are getting deeper. starting from Nightmares on Wax track, music takes listeners to pure nirvana. cool, chilled dancemusic with latin/dub flavor. quality stuff.ESL The Soundtrack, Vol. 1 Overview
