santessa - delirium


i posted this album as a reply to the top 10 neosloul albums thread
but i figured since she isn't strictly neosoul and her album is so
damn good, it deserves it's own thread on this forum.

the album was released in 2001 and kind of went unnoticed by people,
i have to admit i never even heard of her until earlier this year.
a protege of sade, produced by stuart mathewman. this is a cd filled
with dreamy spacy soundscapes with glorious sax n underwater guitars.

it's reminiscent of early sade laced with futuristic electronics and
a dark mysterious brooding atmosphere.

not sure if it's still in print since i read something about it being
hard to find and out of print a while ago. but for anyone liking any
of the albums mentioned on this thread, i'm sure "delirium" will be a
welcome addition to your record collection.

if you can't buy it in stores anymore [i haven't checked] it's sure
worth the while to dig it up somewhere on a torrent or such. it's well
worth the effort of a little digging.

Nice album. Out of print and expensive. Snatch it up.
