After a longer break the European smooth jazz/new age-project Dancing Fantasy returns with the 10th album in the 25th year of their musical career.
The popular German producers and composers Chris W. Williams and Curtis McLaw have worked for more than 12 months in their studios on new material and thus have completed a new chapter in the synth-duos history. All based on their unique sound: smooth pads, irresistibly chilly grooves with mild synth-generated atmospheres, creating a warm soundtrack for the many moods of day and night – surrounded by small, catchy melodies by guitar, trumpet or saxophone. An impressive amount of supporters from all over the world have joined the Dancing Fantasy journey and built a set of faithful fans. So says guitarist and keyboarder Chris W. Williams: „After all these years we still get fan-mail from Japan, Russia, Scandinavia, Europe, USA and Canada - that was really a big motivation to work on new material. What a thrill to wake up our vintage synthesizers and mix it with new, contemporary sound machines.“ Title track "Back Home" opens with a dreamy, mystique soundscape - featuring brilliant Cat Smith on tenor saxophone. Followed by "Again and Again" and later "Deep Sea Diver" which take you on a trip to the roots of the band, sequencer based synth lines and new agey textures. "Mother Earth" and "The Secret Island" speak with the mystic voice of nature, while "Girl From China" and "Sawadee" show finest world music impressions from Asia. "Funky Beach Shack" and "Take The Night Train" show the smooth jazz qualities of Dancing Fantasy, powered by Jan Behrens´ virtuosic piano solo. Back Home is a well rounded multifaceted album that is composed of hip hop, new age, jazz and contemporary synth pop. Beautiful music which is relaxing, which grooves and which above all is full of life, full of enthusiasm and the joy of living.
