Gamelan - Cantoma




Cantoma is the nom-de-spin of pioneering producer/DJ Phil Mison. His career began at the Milk Bar in London during the early nineties. He began his journey into world prominence by submitting a homemade mixed tape to Underworld's Darren Emerson and solidified his reputation via tours with Leftfield and other bands. The tunes on this collection were inspired by the work of Cafe del Mar's Jose Padilla, whose legendary soundscapes so perfectly reflected fun and games on the Spanish Isle of Ibiza, an upscale yet decadent international vacation spot. Composed and produced by Mison, the eleven tracks are a chilled-out melange of Spanish guitars, reggae-influenced bass lines, quotes from sixties bossa nova, Parisian accordions, Latin percussion, wandering easy-on-the-ears male and female voices and spacey electronica; creating a sexy yet relaxed environment that renders the listener relaxed, alert and willing to travel wherever the music goes. Augmented by guest stints from DJ Pathaan (who produced the groundbreaking Global Sunset series), French jazz producer Christophe Gaze, trumpet player Steve H, violinist Andreas Gyarfos, and singers Silvana Malta, Tanja Thulau and Tony Sayer, the mood of the set is sophisticated, exotic and close-to-the-bone, mutable yet cohesive. --Christina Roden
