About Café Del Mar, Vol. 5
Product Description The fifth Cafe Del Mar compilation. The album is compiled by Jose Padilla, who is the resident DJ at a chill out bar in Ibiza named Cafe Del Mar, which is a very famous venue and thousands of clubbers go there every year. Amazon.com Café Del Mar's Volume 5 (recently released for the first time in the U.S.) oozes warm, fuzzy, and thoroughly provocative trip-hop laced tuneage sans the shadow of conventional electronica. As is the way with the Del Mar catalog, a true gem sits amid the collection waiting to be discovered. In this case, it is the superb "Les Negresses Vertes" from Face a la Mer (a.k.a. a project from the early 1990s) given a thoroughly good dubbing by the great . Only the -like spatial dreamweaving of 's "Transfatty Acid ( remix edit)" comes close to bettering it. Elsewhere, Levitation's "More Than Ever People" is pure orange sunsets on shimmering waves, the warmth of its backbeat adding sensuality, while the retro-disco of French act Ame Strong's "Tout Est Bleu" has the rounded curves of bottom-end as opposed to the sharpened corner of dancefloor disco. Overall, the way to enjoy Volume 5 is to adhere to cliché No. 177 (the sum is stronger than individual parts), dim the lights, find some romantic company, and let the music do the talking. --Steffan Chirazi
