Editorial Reviews
Product Description
AMAROK's style is quite different from the current Spanish Progressive rock movement, thanks to their tone. Led by multi-instrumentalist Robert SANTAMARIA, this mainly acoustic band uses a variety of instruments, like the guitar, oboe, violin, piano, didgeridoo, tabla, saxophone, organ, drums and percussions. Mireia SISQUELLA's clear voice creates sound-scapes characterised by their simplicity and calm, and this makes her the counterpart of Portuguese singer Teresa SALGUEIRO (MADREDEUS). Some keyboards rhythm sequences are the basis for the superb melodies pictured by the vocals, in a peaceful atmosphere between ENYA's acoustic new-age, L'ENSEMBLE RAYE's minimalist chamber rock and IN THE LABYRINTH's ethnic musics (Apart from the Indian references). "Mujer Luna" is the fifth album issued by AMAROK after "Els Nostres Petits Amics" (1994), "Canciones De Los Mundos Perdidos" (1995), "Gibra'ara" (1998) and "Tierra De Especias" (2001). It has to be mentioned that the! lyrics, sung in Spanish, as well as their English translation, are all printed in the booklet. The 2004 album, called "Quentadharken", polishes the formula, getting even closer to perfection. What could be nicer than following the music in its travels without leaving one's chair ?

    4 out of 5 stars Andalucian influences in prog rock.......2005-08-02

    This album follows an excellent formula for symphonic progressive music of finding a great melody sung by the band's amazing female vocalist (who has a distinct Spanish flourish and form), or played on a traditional acoustic instrument, adding an intro and outro and embellishing with appropriate more electric and acoustic instrumentation. It works throughout. Andalucia is the part of Spain subject to influences from North Africa, France, and all over the Mediterranean. Amarok uses all these exotic sounds in their own context, such as flamenco guitar with Spanish rhythms and oud with Turkish background, all within a rock song. These people know their neighbors. Mujer Luna is also excellent.
