Dream Weapons present: DISTANT DRUMS C90


Distant Drums is my attempt at compiling an exotica or rather just an exotic-sounding mix - or maybe a few tunes here simply remind me of the sun and the ocean. Anyway I decided not to allow myself to include any of the usual suspects. I've loved the sound of this criminally underrated genre ever since I got Martin Denny's A Taste of Honey for free at a flea market a little over 20 years ago (hardly exotica and far from being among his best, but it did the trick). So here's a light, gentle and deliciously inauthentic 90-minute tour around everywhere in the world westerners consider east or south -Moahaha

      -old fiend! I might just steal that and use it as a title for a mix ... or a painting + perhaps some of those Free Owl Sounds-downloads might come in handy.

    Thanks to you all as well! Supportive comments means a lot. Its good to hear from some guests that they're not only downloading - but also actually enjoying the music.
