Anybody have good suggestions?
I'm looking for something that that is 100% acousitc intruments, accompanied by nice soothing female vocals.
I need something that brings the atmosphere and culture of that region. Something that makes the listener feels like he/she is in a different country. I want something traditional. I like the latin vibe. I know it's hard to explain but I listen to Dulce Pontes and her music is excellent in communicating the culture and feel.

Thanks

    You might want to check out Carla Bruni - Quelqu'un M'a Dit, a french singer / super model which I listen to on and off.

    For some excellent instrumental stuff, Rodrigo y Gabriela are hard to beat. Definitely with a Latin rhythm.

    If you're interested in either, PM me and I'll send you a sample and see if it's what interests you.
    Lovin that music year after year.

    Thanks. Don't want to trouble you. I"ll check out samples on amazon.com Can't get on now cuz I'm surfin on a Dreamcast.
    Talking about instrumentals, I just discovered Jesse Cook and love the music. I really like Kitaro as well.

    I'll definitely check them out. My taste in music is expanding and it's wonderful to discover new music. I love instrumentals with latin feel.

    Thanks again
