CD DetailsSynopsis
Product Description Blank & Jones have teamed up with numerous top international stars in their career. The Cure mastermind Robert Smith, Joy Division/New Order founder Bernard Sumner, and Sarah McLachlan have all been featured on Blank & Jones tracks, giving the duo credibility beyond the boundaries of dance music. Further evidence of their versatility can be seen in their contributions to the Café del Mar compilation series and their own chill-out album series, Relax. With the popularity of their Bernard Summer collaboration Miracle Cure, including having the Miracle Cure (Martin Roth Nu Style Dub Mix) being named one of the Best Trance Tracks on Beatport in 2008 and the accompanying album The Logic of Pleasure s worldwide success, laid the foundations for Blank & Jones to create a solid fan base in North America. The 24 track/double CD set is the perfect accompaniment to that slightly hung over brunch by the pool. The album has several notable guests including Laid Back (of White Horse fame), British superstars Keane, and New York songstress Vanessa Daou. Relax 4 also introduces Atlanta based soul singer Jason Ceasar on the album s single release Relax (Your Mind) . Blank & Jones roots are firmly placed in DJ culture. In North America they regularly headline the big rooms at superclubs such as LA s Giant, NYC s Webster Hall, San Francisco s Ruby Skye, Chicago s Metro and many others. To give their North American fans more Blank & Jones will return to LA, San Diego, San Francisco and many more cities in North America this year. Overwhelmingly positive reactions to the Blank & Jones tour means that the American fans are excited for Relax 4 to be released. Take a vacation to Ibiza s beaches in your headphones with Relax 4 from Black & Jones. Similar CDs

CD ReviewsA Nice New Way To CHILL! John | Colorado | 08/10/2009 (5 out of 5 stars) "Wow! I just kind of stumbled on this album the other day, and have been in a blissful state of disbelief ever since. I quickly had to forget everything I thought I knew about Blank & Jones (having heard only a few tracks from Logic of Pleasure) and just accept the awesomeness that is "Relax: Edition Four". Apparently, when these guys aren't making great trance music, they're busy revolutionizing everything: creating new sounds, styles, and stages, breaking rules, building bridges, and in this case, redefining what it means to "relax".
It is difficult to classify the overall sound, because in keeping with its cosmic theme, discs 1 (Sun) & 2 (Moon) are indeed about as different as night and day. And like their celestial counterparts, both stand alone as miracles of form & function, but each has its time to shine. Disc 1 is definitely "chill"; pure, simple, satisfying lo-fi lounge grooves with a global/beachy feel; solid stuff, not one bad track, but nothing revolutionary... Disc 2 is the true masterpiece here with its unique, refreshing, and very successful combinations of catchy, progressive, electro, acoustic, deep, funky, **UPBEAT & CHILL**. Some songs have a sound that is totally new to me, and I love it. Many defy categorization and demand to be played over and over again, but somehow remain new, novel, and different. -Not one bad track, and totally revolutionary... And so with Disc 2, Blank & Jones have proven that it is possible to simultaneously RELAX and get a serious GROOVE on, while the series itself is proof that a couple of trance DJs from Germany can step outside themselves and produce something entirely different and exceptionally enjoyable. An amazing gift, "Edition Four" offers a wonderful new way to CHILL and a real reason to RELAX." |
