Synopsis

Album Description
After her stint with Transglobal Underground and three ground-breaking solo albums of dynamic Arabian-inflected dance music and chansons, our favourite diva Natacha Atlas invites us on a journey of spiritual discovery. Despite the usual overall "Oriental" feel of the CD, 'Foretold in the Language of Dreams' includes collaborations with a string of exciting musicians with whom she has never worked previously - Andrew Cronshaw on zither (apparently in himself a source of inspiration to Atlas), Syrian qanun player Abdullah Chhadeh, and most satisfyingly, two tracks with the Greek band Avaton. Despite the liner notes claims of "computer malarkey" being employed, the overall sound is acoustic, a stark contrast to her previous work. Mantra.

"This album is a perfect blend of arabic and "meditative" style music. Natacha Atlas seems to be at home in many genres."
Deep...Very Deep

"Foretold in the Language of Dreams is one of the best albums out there. It is Natacha's best album next to Something Dangerous, and is VERY relaxing. It is done w/ Marc Eagleton, although it is like he's never there. Natacha is THE best world artist of our time. And with Beledi Roots coming out in 2006, there is so much to look foward to! With the very mellow roots and DEEP lyrical meanings, Foretold in the Language of Dreams is a flashback to the Arabic music w/o all the pop roots. She wants to travel way back. I so reccomend it!"
