Comment: If you've acquired a taste for mellow electronica with world groove flavors, I assure you this is one of the best collections ever. 2 discs, absolutely solid all the way through!
Customer Rating:
Summary: A Must Have For Your Lifetime Collection, The Bombay Dub Orchestra is Wonderful.
Comment: A cool spring breeze... the butterflies are dancing from flower to flower. A blade of grass tickles the nose of my sleeping calico cat. I'm sitting in the middle of my little backyard world, while this ambient and amazing cd plays from inside the house. I can't help but to close my eyes while the yellow sun soaks my skin and the music penetrates my soul. I am taken. This was the first time that I listed to Bombay Dub's cd, and since that day, I've listened to it countless times, and each time have been floored by it's brilliance. You will love it. It is worth every penny. Pure golden light. Buy this album today.

Summary: not dub but still very good
Comment: not dub music, that's for sure ... but having said this, I really, really love this album. it never intruded on my thoughts as it played in the background so it took a while to grow on me but once it did, I was hooked and actually recommend it to my friends. Disk 2 is very nice - I enjoyed the re-interpretations of 'Beauty and the Beast' and 'Dust.'
get this if you want some ethnic chill ... don't if you are looking for real dub music.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Buy it..
Comment: The CD cover, speaks for it self. The music is mellow, but extremely well put together. The combination of the various musical disciplines are very well composed, which leaves me to conclude that Bombay Dub Orchestra has certainly created a distinct new sound.

Editorial Reviews:
|
The Bombay Dub Orchestra is the brainchild of two English musicians, Andrew Mackay and Garry Hughes, who wanted to do something that hadn't been tried before: to make the ultimate chill-out album, using a real orchestra. It all began when Mackay and Hughes went to Bombay some seven years ago to record some of that city's top session players for a project by the LA group Spellbound. "I produced and Andy arranged," Hughes recalls. "It was a fantastic experinece recording these guys, and on the plane coming home we thought how great it would be to make an orchestral chill-out record with these players." Over a period of nearly a year, Mackay and Highes worked out the intricate, almost cinematic arrangements with digital samples. They ended up with a pretty fair approximation of what their Bombay Dub Orchestra would sound like. But there was no chance that the two producers would be satisfied with that. "I love samples and use them a lot" Highes says, "but some things you have to do with real players." In March 2005, Mackay and Hughes finally traveled to Bombay, India and began what must rank as one of the most unique orchestral recording sessions ever. "During that week, we recorded a 28 piece string section on 10 different tracks. We generally overdubbed the orchestra several times to achieve the multi-layored arrangements that we were aiming for." In addition to the orchestra, the pair also recorded the cream of Bombay's Indian classical musicians - including leading players of the sitar, tabla, bansuri and some memorable vocal performances. This specially priced double CD also includes a second disc of "dub remixes" which takes the music into even more exotic sonic territories.
