This eighth installment of the now highly acclaimed Buddha Bar series is presented to you by Sam Popat. The series grows stronger with each release and VIII is no exception. Popat injects new life into this double CD set and unlike the many that have tried to emulate the style of the Buddha Bar he carries you away with as much power, if not more, than those who have previously created the perfect sound in a perfect Bar. Wagram. 2006.

This, the first Buddha-Bar CD/DVD, follows the seventh successful Buddha-Bar CD (released in February 2005). The nature theme is one of the major concerns of the 21st century, and it corresponds to the Buddha-Bar spirit. Allain Bougrain Dubourg, known for his TV documentaries about nature across the world, and Arno Elias, whose talent as a composer is also widely recognized, produced twelve pieces of music that lead us on a visual journey through the wild world of nature. A marvelous spectacle of animal and plant life, from dolphins dancing in the waves to tropical forests, to a leopard attack, the DVD is bursting with emotion. The Buddha-Bar team hopes that the beauty of the wildlife depicted will remind us also of its fragility, and therefore, the respect we owe it.

DJ RAVIN returns to head up Buddha Bar 9. The theme this time is the English Springtime, to pave the way for the new Buddha Bar club opening in London later this year. A breathtaking, fresh and sun kissed selection, with surprising titles coming from places like Greece and Eastern European countries and also from Australia.

The latest from the groundbreaking BUDDHA BAR compilation series. Still the best and most reknowned lifestyle compilation series, BUDDHA BAR V mixed by David Visan will build on the positive word of mouth created by its fans to reach an even broader audience and they will be turned on to this unique & sophisticated style of music from the moment the music starts!! Featured artists include Angelique Kidjo, Frederick Rousseau, Operatica, and Gipsyland.

The Buddha Bar series has become a band name by now, and Buddha Bar, Vol. 4 does nothing to break the new tradition. Compiled by David Visan, the two-CD set is divided into "Dinner" and "Drink." The former is definitely music for the consumption of comestibles, pleasant and polite with exotic touches of world music, like Nitin Sawhney's "Moonrise" or Gotan Project's revolution of the tango with "Una Musical Brutal," but they're the mildest examples of the artists' output, never pushing themselves forward, but providing a backdrop for food and civilized conversation. "Drink" fares a little better, but has traces of anonymity -- Time Passing with "Party People," for example, or Chris Spheeris and "Dancing With The Muse" could both come from a modern TV ad -- although its less afraid of imposing itself, with the delightful Panjabi Mc, whose track is gleefully annoying, and Loving Paris, who offer "Loco," which is exactly that. Egyptian heartthrob Amr Diab comes across as glossier than usual in this setting, while salsa diva Celia Cruz contributing a version of "I Will Survive" is one of the musical standouts -- the song translates surprisingly well to her genre. Still, it's a disc without rhyme or reason, and bizarrely sequenced, with little sense of movement, just a random bunch of tracks slung together without a great deal of thought. Overall, a moderate success only.

On number six in this Buddha-Bar series, musical alchemist Ravin returns with a sublime selection of tracks, half of which are previously unreleased. Artists on this double disc include B-Tribe, 1 Giant Leap, Erik Satie, Cellar 55, Slow Train, Loopless, Sarah Vaughan, Bliss, Afterlife, and many more.
