jhualde Es una obra maestra. Una enciclopedia sobre lo que ha sido y es la música electrónica en varias vertientes. Unas músicas de escucha obligada para todos los amantes de Vangelis, Jarre, Kraftwerk, Demby y tantos otros. Una joya para estos tiempos en los que tanto escasea el talento musical y el buen gusto.
Leer referencias a Rodríguez de la Fuente y José Luis Comellas es una grata sorpresa.
Felicidades por esta producción única. Favorite track: The Last Goodbye.
