Buika En Mi Piel (2011)

The first official compilation by the acclaimed flamenco fusion/jazz/soul vocalist from Palma de Mallorca, En Mi Piel: The Best of Buika collects highlights from the four excellent albums she recorded between 2005 and 2009. This CD set concentrates on her projects with producer Javier Limon, and while it does not feature , it includes many tracks not available on her original albums. Her two superb contributions to Pedro Almodovar's 2011 film La Piel Que Habito ( "Por el Amor de Amar" and "Se Me Hizo Facil" ); and two previously unreleased tracks, "Sueno con Ella" and "Como Era."

The soundtrack from the acclaimed 2011 Pedro Almodóvar film features instrumental music by internationally renowned film composer – and longtime Almodóvar collaborator – Alberto Iglesias, inspired by Bernard Herrmann's classic scores for Alfred Hitchcock's thrillers. Besides Iglesias' compositions, La Piel Que Habito includes four other selections: "Por el Amor de Amar" (the film's main song) and "Se Me Hizo Fácil," both sung by the exquisite flamenco fusion vocalist Concha Buika; a cover of Elliott Smith's "Between the Bars" by Chris Garneau; and "Shades of Marble" by Danish electronic artist Trentemøller.
