Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
There's no shortage of quality chill-out albums around these days. Take Blue States debut album Nothing Changes Under The Sun, for example. It contains the sort of brilliant, uplifting music that should be soundtracking perfect sunsets and endless summer evenings. Blue States man Andy Dragazis takes his cue from the likes of Kruder & Dorfmeister and Air, fusing warm, bass-heavy beats with gentle acoustic guitars, sublime Hammond keys and quietly uplifting strings. Some tracks are lush and dreamy, while others are clear and refined. The album's roomy, cinematic elegance suggests a love for the work of classic soundtrack composers like John Barry, Ennio Morricone and Roy Budd. With its lazy melodies, enchanting strings and sexy keys, Nothing Changes Under The Sun is one of the most beautiful albums you're likely to hear in a long, long time. The summer will never be the same again. --Matt Anniss

5.0 out of 5 stars BLISS!, 26 April 2001
By A Customer
This is an album which you can just sit down to after a long day and just lose the world. It is beautifully chilled, and I like the use of many many different instruments. My favourite two tunes are Arion, which is inspiring as well as calm, my other favourite is Diamente, which is just so good to cool out to.

The sort of thing that is needed after a long day/night. Or any other time of the day, as it is so good, it doesn't matter when it is played.

This is their first album, and I think that they have done a pretty good job of it. It hasn't left my CD player for a while, and I don't think that it will. A must have in order have a more relaxed life!

4.0 out of 5 stars The Hare and the Tortoise, 1 Feb 2004
It's only when I realised this had surreptitiously become one of my most frequently played albums that I felt compelled to write a review.

I really didn't like 'Nothing Changes Under The Sun' to start - I'm not sure whether it was the rave reviews setting my ears up for a fall , or what. But after a couple of listens it went back on the shelf with all the other big bangs, and started gathering dust...

I played it a couple of months later and thought it probably warranted a few more listens, and so began a love affair with Blue States. Firstly, it refused to leave my stereo. Then it found it's way into my car. Now it's become such an integral part of my life I had to buy their second album for more input (not half as good, although I'm retaining an open mind considering my previous folly).

Let it grow on you. It'll insinuate itself in there and before you know it, you'll be prompted to write a review too.

"I wish everybody would be quiet, and nice, and don't throw rocks, and don't shoot guns..."

4.0 out of 5 stars Great, but not perfect, 7 Feb 2001
Nice, chilled, laid back music. Perfect for chilled summer evenings. There's defiantely a very strong 'air' influence on many tracks, but without copying their style too strongly. My favourite track is the outstanding Diamente, which is simply beautiful.

Unfortuantely a couple of songs get a little cheesy at times, and wouldn't sound out of place in cheap italian restaurants. Having said that, they're not bad, they just don't live up to the rest of the album in my opinion.

Considering this a first album, it's a really good effort, and It was good enough for me to buy it twice, once on CD and once on Vinyl.
