For the love of the deep blue sea

Aluna is written and produced by musician Paul Roberts. All the music on this album was gathered together whilst travelling around the globe for three and a half years, visiting Africa, Asia and S.America. With help from the Wodon of the south Sahara, Massai women and men of the Rift Valley of northern Tanzania, the Shillak of south Sudan, the Panaore of the Orinoco river in Venezuela, the Mihicau of the Xingu river in Brazil, the swallows of Granada, Hindu temple chanting and beautiful Arabic singing. This World music album has 11 powerful tracks and is a unique blend of ethnic recordings, various instrumentalists, and modern computer techniques.
