Review:

 

Second album from Gabriel le Mar (Saafi brothers). Firt track is a psychedelic

ambient track with acoustic guitar and vocals...very good to start. Track 2 is

nice too, but nothing special..Third track starts with a good basic rythm then

comes a nice melodic loop and effects "a la" Gabriel le mar..very positive

song..reverb rules !..Next track begins with those famous psychedelic house

sounds that make you immediately recognize Gab' . A powerfull and well built

rythm make you wanna dance. It's a pity that this track is so short... Same

pattern for the next track : powerfull rythm, psy housy sounds... A perfect

track to fly....very kind with your brain :-) "Interpole" (track 6) have a dub

feeling..I would like to hear this track behind coconut palms B-) Track 7 is

"No shelter" that you know if you have Tantrance 9...a very good typical Gab's

track ! Next tracks is more psytrance with vocals...not the best track from

the album ! Track 9 make you hardly stay on your seat...if you're sad today,

listen this track..you will smile and dance in your bathroom :-)))) perfect

rythm....one of the best track of the album. Track 10 is a good psychedelic

jungle short track. Last track is called "fairytale" and guess what ? it's a

fairytale... beautiful ambient sounds meet a good rythm....

So, a very good album, Gabriel le Mar succeed in creating a melting from

different styles...and always very psychedelic. Rythms are "hard" ones as

psytrance but synth sounds are "soft" ones as House and ambient. The cover is

very smart like a Flemish paint !! You will find BPM for each tracks, too.

Rating...9/10

For me this album is nothing special.The feeling is groovy and melow but I

don't find anything exciting.But...the second track is exclusive-one of my

favourite of all times.It sounds so melancholic,especially the melody in the

middle-fucking great!!!!!!Only for that track I think the album is worth

buying.I listened to it when my girlfriend had just gone away and I

cried.4/10,but for "Bob"-100/10/Thank you,Gab.

Quite nice. Not really party music, more of a psychedelic chill-trance album. I

really enjoyed track 1 and 2, track 9 is nice and also track 7. For some

reason this reminds me of the mainstream Enigma minus the vocals. I don't have

Gab's Lab so I don't know how similar this is to Le Mar's previous works. I

know this isn't like the Saafi brothers since it isn't ambient, though Gift's

themes sound remotely similar. 8/10 cause it's quite nice but short of being a

masterpiece. More like this please :-) Bom! - Raven

When i heard this cd first time, i began to smile and was happy. When you like

chill-out and ambient stuff, with trance and house influences, then you will

love it. It's a lovely and warm atmosphere there. I think it's very good

lounge-music, relaxed and happy. My favourites: Unlimited Love: one of the

most beautiful tracks i've ever heard, with acoustic guitars, nice melodies

and full of emotions. West-Ghost: Warm trance-track, with jazzy melodies. No

Shelter: A minimalistic Ambient-Track with house influences. Fairytale:

Beautiful Chill-Out-Track with a good groove. 9/10, no masterpiece, but good

to enjoy it after partys.
