Reseña del editor Highly acclaimed producer and guitarist Jens Gad, who worked for 10 years with the multi-platinum group ENIGMA, brings you a spellbinding downtempo musical odyssey into the ancient mythology of his Scandinavian homeland. He is joined by the entrancing classical vocals of Helene Horlyck, to co-create a sophisticated and hypnotic chill-out journey through "The Nine Worlds" of archaic legend. At once stirring and calming, entertaining yet relaxing, Achillea achieves a vibrantly new and hauntingly beautiful musical vision that artfully blends evocative ambient New Age atmospheres with European dance club electronica. Achillea elegantly weaves the mystery of ancient myth - a world of seers, elves, and rune masters, into a lush, richly layered sonic landscape with velvety melodies of delicately bluesy guitar playing, slow sensuous grooves and silky smooth vocals sung in Latin and ancient Swedish. Both intimate and cinematic, this uniquely transcendent masterpiece is full of deep beauty and mysterious wonder that will nourish your soul. Críticas "Amadas Estrellas...is a shimmering welcome to the new world of sounds from Achillea, from Jens Gad. This is an example of well-equipped electronica meeting the eastern flavor...Dreamy, seducing, chilling...It will keep going on in your head even if you press the stop button when you finalize the experience. A deep, very deep archaic choir going in and out, just like a movie score telling an epic tale...You will be blown away... Jens is pushing the limits once more, as he's one of the masters... This is a diamond... Like ice melting on a hot body..." -- Onur Tezgeldi, Enigma News Editor"The Nine Worlds caught my attention right away. Singer Helene Horlyck and producer Jens Gad draw from their shared Viking heritage to explore the stories of their ancestry in Latin and ancient-Swedish lyrics. Gad moves listeners with haunting, emotive electronica and guitar." -- Mara Applebaum, Sounds From the Ground Up, Spring 2006"The brain behind this album is one Jens Gad who spent many years working with Enigma. ...Monastic choirs, relaxing ambient rhythms, sultry female vocals courtesy of one Luisa Fernandez's...along with the widespread acoustic guitar, including Spanish flavors. ...Fernandez is, without doubt, a star in the making as her undoubted expertise really adds to the music's majestic qualities. ...The heavy guitar that adds real majestic power to 'Atacame' ...uplifting, relaxing & quite romantic!" -- Carl Jenkinson for Sequences Magazine, UK, June 2007Amadas Estrellas...is a shimmering welcome to the new world of sounds from Achillea, from Jens Gad.

So it is with Sequoia records and their Sequoia groove label. They donate a portion of the proceeds from the sale of all of their music to the Rain Forest Action Network, the United Nations Indigenous Peoples Fund and the Seva Foundation. It's good to know that by supporting Sequoia's great music we are also supporting our brothers and sisters on planet Earth. Amadas Estrellas is the latest down tempo world groove album from Achillea. Gens Gad, Enigma's guitar maestro, is the driving force behind Achillea. I reviewed The Nine Worlds, Achillea's first album, in last December's newsletter. This time around, the seductive voice of Euro-pop legend Luisa Fernandez is featured, affording the listener Spanish language vocals to accompany Gad's sensuously juicy grooves. Her Palm's form the core of Amadas Estrellas, avoiding pop stylings in favor of a more ethnic sound. Fun and inventive trip hop beats ground in the music deep in the earth, while Euro-style synthesizers and delicious guitar licks dance over the soundscape like some happily demented party animal. Fans of Enigma's signature sound are sure to enjoy Amadas Estrellas, though anyone who appreciates down tempo grooves and world beat sensuality are sure to appreciate it as well. Lyrical, enchanting and heart-centered, Amadas Estrellas lingers in the soul like star jasmine lingers in the nostrils. Perfect for active forms of meditation such as walking or dance, Amadas Estrellas is music to get your summer groove on. -- Steve Ryals, Author and Music ReviewerJens Gad, formerly of Enigma, softens his delivery while maintaining what fans of early Enigma found so appealing, that blend of hypnotic rhythms and almost-holy, reverent vocalizing. On this release, Gad features the poetry and sensual voice of Spanish star Luisa Fernandez. The result is a smoldering passion, the sound of a hot Ibiza afternoon. This is serious seduction music. -- Review by Anne Williams of Play ListWith his second album under the name Achillea, former Enigma co-producer Jens Gad (Le Spa Sonique) continues to traverse the valleys of chilled electronica, with an added dose of rhythm this time around. Whereas THE NINE WORLDS was a deep ambient affair, AMADAS ESTRELLAS takes a more ethnic (or more specifically Spanish) approach, accenting Gad's engrossingly mood-drenched trancescapes with Luisa Fernandez's sensual vocals and flamenco guitar. Among other things, that is - the album is rich with multi-cultural flavor including flute, Chinese erhu, ethnic percussion and sacred choral samples. The sound is reminiscent of both Enigma and B-Tribe; while at the same time have a unique quality that is distinctly Achillea. It's not often that an album is able to be sensual, spiritual and hip all at once, but Gad pulls of the feat with panache. -- Music Design in Review
