The popularity of "world music" is spreading around the globe today, with folk music influencing new musical trends. In Taiwan, lounge and chill-out music have become a steady trend where most people tend to collect works of European DJs and mixers. In "Hotel Rechampur", Japanese band "Blue Asia" brings together a collection of sounds from Turkey's Istanbul, such as Sufi and gypsy music. There are also healing sounds from the tropical islands of Bali. The blue skies and seas of Hawaii evoke musical notes that inspire Slack-Key style guitar music. The entire album is made up of ethnic sounds mixed with electronica, creating an exotic flavor. Do not miss out on this musical journey!
