Editorial Reviews

Punta del Este Sunset is part of a series of ambient mix discs inspired by rave locations around the world, this one being Punta del Esta, Uruguay. Mixed live by A Man Called Adam, Sunset takes a global approach to ambient music with a pop tinge. Issa Bagayogo weaves an African trance, while the Beta Band affects a pastoral brand of acoustic pop. Beta Band's inclusion in this usually all-electronic domain speaks to A Man Called Adam's willful eclecticism, which on this album also includes Luscious Jackson. Pushing the envelope of ambient chill, AMCA holds them together with seamless segues that break down superficial barriers. They take us from Branda Fassia's joyous African techno chant, "Vuli n' Delia," to John Beltran's tapped bass, digital delay foray, "Collage of Dreams," and AMCA's own "Steady" with its world-weary vocal. Punta del Este has dramatic, if languid, arc: a torrid day burning into a sultry night. --John Diliberto

2 out of 5 stars If you want to go to sleep....................2001-12-27

I bought this CD based on a review sticker on the packaging. This was a huge mistake. NME said that it was the chill out album of the year. Ok, if you like the kind of chill music that you can fall asleep to then yes I agree! Please do not buy this album expecting an Ibiza, Cafe del Mar, or Serve Chilled series sound. The main review at the top of the page is right on - this is more of a global trance sounding CD, not much else.

5 out of 5 stars Great Chill Out Music.......2001-09-19

This is good Gen X chill-out music. Some really beautiful songs on here. I could do without the birds chirping in the background of one of them, but other than that, this album is a stellar compilation. Groovy, modern, yet relaxing...

4 out of 5 stars Sunset in style.......2001-05-16

This is a truely eclectic mix of chill-out tunes ranging from Radiohead to the Pixies with some Balearic beats thrown in aswell. That said, it works. Totally original, there is hardly a weak track in the whole set. Every track is totally diffeent yet the seamlessly work togetherPerfect summer grooves. Highly recommended for anyone who is a fan of A Man Called Adam or the Real Ibiza series
