David and Steve Gordon seemingly can do no wrong. They have recently
turned their attention to the downtempo/chill-out genre and are making
it their own with this release, one of the strongest efforts I"ve heard
in this category of music in a while. Working with three top
producers/engineers from the field of electronica, the Gordons focus on
making music which incorporates their signature world beat elements
with the smooth grooves and lush melodies of contemporary chill-out and
lounge. The results are uniformly stellar, surprisingly accomplished
and quite varied for this particular genre. Unlike a lot of these types
of albums, each song offers the listener a different take on the theme,
while maintaining continuity of mood (a requirement for a good
chill-out album). Check out the bossa nova-ish "Luminous Sunset," the
trippy-jazzy "Gliding in Azure," the Ibiza-tinted exotic world flavors
of "Asana Lounge" or the laid-back funkified "Soft Landing" to sample
the assortment of grooves and beats that awaits you and your customers.
The CD is a solid bet for in-store play generating interest as the
infectious beats and smooth melodies get inside you quickly.
