Islands is an essential collection of sun soaked music by Tigerforest, aka german music producer Gunnar Spardel. Brandnew summer inspired songs and also some reworks of well known tracks will take you on an audio visual journey. Guest musicians include Piano Virtuoso Doug Hammer and Ambient Musician David Helpling, as well as the always stunning ethereal soprano vocalist Amethyste who is also playing the Theremin on the closing song "Luna Park".

We seem to say this with every Tigerforest album, but each new release by German composer Gunnar Spardel is remarkably better than the last! From start to finish it is pure listening bliss at its absolute finest. The sound is a diverse, exotic mix of lush trance, driving electronica and emotional chillout all cohered in heavenly perfection. And the beautiful, angelic voices of Amethyste lift the music to otherworldy heights.

If you are a modern friend of electronic, chilly and relaxed music, go and get this album!
