El Amor Menos Pensado 2018

Me El-Ma is a drummer that discover synthesizers and was part of the Israel band Atmosphera in 1976. He joined another band from Israel Zingale. Here on this third album, his music becomes more accessible but he still enjoys experiment with dissonant music and different styles of music. From the first song, we could feel the King Crimson influence but with the vocal tone of Jon Anderson. The drums patterns are complex and the Robert Fripp style of guitar make you wonder if it's not Mr. Fripp himself. "Without Further Ado" is a nice little peaceful song that starts on a lighter note with some world beat drum and violin. "Pleas as You Please" is a strange track difficult to get into. "Eternity Heart" is a beautiful exotic guitar and violin duel…

M. De Falla's work is strongly influenced by Spanish folk music in which the guitar is central. Although he composed only one piece for that instrument his inspiration was flamenco and early Spanish music, including the guitar works of Gaspar Sanz. The guitar also features in Falla's first great success, the opera ‚La Vida Breve'. For this recording, we have selected and transcribed works in which the influence of the guitar was dominant thus translating these pieces back to their original source of inspiration.
