5.0 out of 5 stars GORGEOUSLY SPOOKY MUSIC, August 12, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Mastretta (Audio CD)

Already an distinguished artist in his homeland of Spain, Nacho Mastretta's first U.S. album from our exquisite collection contains a collection of Moog whistles, Carribean rhythms, sensual saxes, spaghetti-western guitars and an assortment of female vocalists in an environment of futuristic carnivals that imitate
the Castillian spirit.

Mastretta is a critical fave in the Europe, having performed at some of the top independent rock, electronica and jazz festivals in the past year. Spain's national newspaper El Pais called Mastretta's album "The Best Electronic Record Of The Decade, a puzzling description for an album that is far from "electronic".

Mastretta has performed in the U.S. with Julieta Venegas, and members of R.E.M., Beck and Tom Waits' band. Mastretta has also composed a number of award winning film scores and remixed singles from alternative Latin artists.
