Rhythm is the heart. The idea is the spirit. The voice is the soul.
In his studio in Ibiza Spain, Jens Gad, the co-visionary of the
multi-platinum group ENIGMA, is joined by the mesmerizing European
dance/pop singer Luisa Fernandez. On this greatly anticipated second
ACHILLEA release, they guide you on a new ethereal journey of global
electronica, lush atmospheres, seductive Spanish vocals, entrancing
guitar playing, and ingenious beats. Luisa Fernandez, born in Galicia
in the north of Spain, has chosen her world language to guide a musical
journey through different continents. Amadas Estrellas is a multi-cultural
concept for an international audience and entirely produced on Spanish territory.
Luisa's spiritually sensual vocals, based on Spanish poems of love, combined
with the richly layered atmospheres and European dance club electronica that
Jens Gad and ACHILLEA are renowned for is compelling and deeply satisfying.
Let yourself go, escape into the sensory world of Achillea.

What people are saying about Amadas Estrellas:
"The brain behind this album is one Jens Gad who spent many years working with Enigma. Monastic choirs, relaxing ambient rhythms, sultry female vocals courtesy of one Luisa Fernandez. Along with the widespread acoustic guitar, including Spanish flavors. Fernandez is, without doubt, a star in the making as her undoubted expertise really adds to the music's majestic qualities. The heavy guitar that adds real majestic power to 'Atacame' -uplifting, relaxing & quite romantic!"
- Carl Jenkinson for Sequences Magazine, U.K, June 2007
"'Amadas Estrellas' is a shimmering welcome to the new world of sounds from Achillea, from Jens Gad. This is an example of well-equipped electronica meeting the eastern flavor. Dreamy, seducing, chilling. It will keep going on in your head even if you press the stop button when you finalize the experience. A deep, very deep archaic choir goes in and out, just like a movie score telling an epic tale. You will be blown away - Jens is pushing the limits once more, as he's one of the masters. This is a diamond! Like ice melting on a hot body..."
- Onur Tezgeldi, Enigma News Editor
"Jens Gad, formerly of Enigma, softens his delivery while maintaining what fans of early Enigma found so appealing, that blend of hypnotic rhythms and almost-holy, reverent vocalizing. On this release, Gad features the poetry and sensual voice of Spanish star Luisa Fernandez. The result is a smoldering passion, the sound of a hot Ibiza afternoon. This is serious seduction music."
- Anne Williams, Playlist
