Oh, shit, I love this stuff!!! One of the best damn things on Jamendo!
Great work!
Alessandro
I'm really proud to be the first to review this album! Like you said, it's often repetitive, but that's a part of the game when your intent is to make music like this, ideal like a soundtrack for the workin' time!!
Great Job!
A great mix of different kind of influences and sounds that generates a really nice and original result. The singer has a very beautiful voice and the players are really good!
Good Job, definetly!
Good background music for a relaxin' after dinner (or happy hour or whnever you need a moment to just shut down the brain!!)
It captures you!! Good job!
What can I say about that...
I think it's better if you listen yourselves..
It sounds like an angry Alanis with an Hard Rock band playin' behind her!
Great Job! Waitin' 4 mooore!!
Ladies & Gentlemen, the Spanish Guitar played as it must be! Great atmospheres and tecnique for this talented artist that can let us know his world made of all the emotions!
You've got to listen 2 this!
GREAT!!
Oooh, finalmente un concept album degno di questo nome! A partire dalla tematica di base, molto originale a mio avviso, fino alle soluzioni musicali precise e puntuali nel sottolineare il "luogo" in cui ci troviamo, tutto trova un suo perchè ed una sua logica.
While listening 2 this album, I can figure out a kind of travel all across the different ethnic situations of the world. Very interesting and absolutely well played, it reminds me the "old times pop" feelings with a twist gave by the influences of contemporary electronic music.
Definetly a good job!
This album has good melodies, good ideas, good sounds and mixdown; in fact it's a GOOD album! The only critic I can move is that in my opinion it's still too much influenced by a certain kind of mainstream "indie" pop-rock. Apart of that, the job is really well done!
Great job!
