Editorial Reviews

You don't hear too many bands from Spain, but if this album is any indication, perhaps we should. The group's take on Brazilian music is nothing less than wonderful, thanks in large part to Ana D's vocals, which have to be the most seductive since Astrud Gilberto. She can even take a hokey standard like "More" and turn it into something gorgeous in her native tongue. There's a minimalism about the music that brings the voice to the fore, and there's also a very wry sense of humor--the band's not above turning up the cheese factor with primitive rhythm machines and God-awful keyboard sounds. That they can make it all gel speaks volumes for their prowess, but most of all for Ana herself. An absolute gem. --Chris Nickson

Product Description
An astonishingly original mixture of cinematic electro-disco, casio tones, Brazilian flavors, and elegant cosmic imagery.

Sung in Spanish.

5 out of 5 stars "le mans", the next generation.......2000-12-17

Ana d. is another Spanish singer the world should embrace. The problem is that all those latin bon bon shakers leave so little space for the real artists. But why be negative? this is such positive music. It's for people who love their diva's human, sad and quite. When you had enough of your Streisands and Dions open your ears and you will be able to understand where Almodovar gets his ideas. This is a beautiful cd.

5 out of 5 stars a psychedelic Astrud Gilberto.......2000-02-27

Satelite 99 is one of the nicest, smoothest, and yes, I dare say best, albums I've heard in a while. The songs sound like classic sixties bossa nova, but the instrumentation transports this great tradition to the nineties- imagine Astrud Gilberto or Gal Costa, produced by Air. Very charming, very relaxing,certainly sexy, and subtly psychedelic. If you like Stereolab but sometimes wish they'd drop this static Krautrock grrove of theirs, then this one is for you. Brilliant album.
