Cafe de Luna
- Chill out in paradise
For ages people
have seen the moon as a symbol for the permeability between the world
of dreams and reality. Artists and mystics alike use his mysterious
radiation, which effects the conditions of human minds and the rhythms
of nature, as a catalyst for their inspiration.
This fascinating compilation offers 14 tracks assembled by leading
ambient artists from three continents. Here traditional and modern
elements mingle in various ways, and so do imagination and profound
knowledge: Like when London-based mexican multiinstrumentalist Alquimia
reworks the ancient british folk classic "She Moved Through The
Fair" in an extraordinary way. Or when Caribbean guitar virtuoso
Roykey Wydh adds surprising new facets to an old tropical folk melody.
But also when sensitive German composer Rüdiger Gleisberg combines
cultivated European harmonies with melodic themes full of Asiatic
flair. Gentle, sensual grooves, relaxing and stimulating trance rhythms,
intoxicatingly beautiful harmonies - in the "Café de Luna"
the listener forgets the tribulations of the working day and becomes
receptive for a paradise full of musical pleasures.
