No Smoking Orchestra - Life Is A Miracle (Emir Kusturica) [Soundtrack]

Music inspired and taken from the film by Emir Kusturica
Composed by Dejan Saparavalo and Emir Kusturica
Performed by the No Smoking Orchestra

Biography
Formed in 1980, Sarajevo, ‘No Smoking’ found considerable success with their first two albums (84/85). After a misunderstanding during a concert, the group suffered Titoist censorship and most of its members left.

Emir Kusturica, an ex-punk rocker from Sarajevo who had just received his first Palme d’Or Award, became the band’s official bass player. Emir had just time to record the third album and contribute to the development of this Balkan inn and multiple pile-up of latitudes before he had to leave, having just signed the contract for the movie ‘Le Temps des Gitans’.

In 1994, Dr Nelle Karallic (the leader of the band) decided to reform ‘No Smoking’ with younger musicians, including Kusturica’s son. This new blood allowed them to explore new horizons on their fifth album dedicated to all the victims of the war. Country beats, Turkish marches, Italian classical, Gypsy trumpets, South American sounds, techno-pop loops, accordeon, Balkan base-punk, Tzigane tradition, etc… : this Balkanised roar bears the self-proclaimed name of ‘unza unza’ and they see it as the most important musical style since reggae.

Since 1998, after the original soundtrack of ‘Black cat, White cat’, Kusturica went back to the band, having simply swapped his bass for a guitar. On record as well as on stage, he seems intent on polishing off the entire history of manic-depressive guitar in hat and work-jacket. The album ‘Unza Unza time’ was released in 2000 and was a huge success in France and abroad, the performances of the group being wildly applauded by the public. In 2004, they released the OST of Kusturica’s movie ‘Life is a miracle’. ~ French Music

“Isihia (Bulgarian: Исихия, "hesychia") are a Bulgarian music band founded in 2000, the style of which unites elements of Bulgarian folklore and Hesychast Christian chant of the 14th century to create an atmosphere of Balkan spiritual mysticism. Many of the group's songs cover topics of the medieval history of Bulgaria, mostly the period of the Ottoman invasion of the Balkans and the attempts on its repulsion and the early Ottoman rule of Bulgaria, i.e. the 14th-15th century, but also other moments of hardship such as the tragic Battle of Klyuch of 1014.Isihia have released two separate albums, the eponymous Isihia from 2001 and Orisiya ("Doom") that was used as the music of Neshka Robeva's dance show by the same name. A compilation of Isihia music also served as the soundtrack of the 2000 film Isihia by the Bulgarian National Television. In addition, the band's eponymous album was re-released by the Austrian company Polyglobe Music

Stan Getz - Cafe Montmartre

Many of the current flock of compilations of Stan Getz come from earlier music, especially from the 1960's. This group is taken from his last recordings, late 80's-90's, including, arguably, his finest album "Anniversary", and "Serenity" recorded on his sixtieth birthday, at the apex of his abilities, and "People Time" recorded months before his death, some four years after. All were recorded live at the "Cafe Montmartre", one of his favorite venues from his ex-patriot days.

The music is all ballads: breathtakingly beautiful, heartfelt and poignant, deeply expressive, romantic, and sad. Ballads, of course, were his forte. The magnificent "Sound" is still there, as always, but the "Cool", aloof style of his earlier years has been replaced by deep emotional truth. While up tempo songs may are technically difficult, ballads expose the depth of the soul.

While this is a great album and a wonderful introduction to his work, if you like the music here, do buy the original albums listed above. In concert, Stan always offset the ballads with upbeat songs, which made them stand out in relief. I feel they are more meaningful when presented this way.

I should add that Jazz's greatest trumpeter, Miles Davis, everything he recorded is currently available. Sadly for Stan, the Jazz's greatest sax man, the original albums are vanishing to be replaced by a series of overlaping "best of's". ''rash67''

Gandalf - Invisible Power

Heinz STOBL (aka GANDALF) can be called a "PAINTER OF MUSICAL LANDSCAPES", he is a composer, musician and producer of meanwhile numerous album releases. Taking his name from the good-hearted wizard in J.R.R. Tolkien's trilogy "Lord of the Rings", GANDALF's work often reflects his love of nature, as well as his commitment to preserving the environment. He plays a great variety of instruments (various guitars, sax, piano, keyboards such as lead and string-synths, and percussion) and blends acoustic, electronic and spherical sounds and weaves folk elements into a symphonic structure to create his unmistakable and unique musical style. The sound is full, rich, and colourful. In his travels, GANDALF has been touched by the realization that far more things unite than separate the various people and cultures of the world, and his goal in composing and recording is to create music that dissolves boundaries.

The goal of this multi-sided musician is, to dissolve the boundaries between musical categories and styles and to create a cross-cultural global music. On his journeys through Europe, North and South America and Asia he came in touch with most different cultures and found out, that there are more things that unite than seperate the folks on this planet.

His first few albums - 1980's "Journey to an Imaginary Land", 1981's "Visions", 1982's "To Another Horizon" (conceptual), 1983's "Magic Theatre" (conceptual), and 1984's "Tale From a Long Forgotten Kingdom" (concept work) contained a definite prog rock edge, before adding such instruments as flutes and saxophones to the equation and heading in a more new age-ish direction. "Reflection" is a collection of essential pieces from 1986 to 1990. It is a fine introduction to one of the foremost Austrian synthesists. "From Source to Sea" (1988) is still one of top selling imports, but overall is probably more NewAgey than most folks here would like. You could try "Gallery of Dreams" (1992), with Steve HACKETT on guitars. The result is quite majestic with an energy that favours relaxation. "Fountain of Secrets" (2002) is surely destined to become another top seller. It is a stunning flowing, mix of melodic variety and sound layering where the music travels but never loses sight of its functions.

"Between Earth and Sky" (2003) is a harmonious and meditative compilation of the artist´s most beautiful tracks recorded between 1994 and 2001, collected from various albums that had been formerly released in European territories, a peaceful and enchanting journey through GANDALF´s colourful musical landscapes. For those new to the man; If you can just imagine a cross between Mike OLDFIELD, and classic HACKETT era GENESIS that might give you some idea of what this..
