Release Notes
==========================================================================
"When they released 'The Other Shore' last year, Aly & Fila demonstrated
their ability to transcend the limitations of the genre and break new
ground. The album was well-received, and many viewed it as a chance for
the duo to really show what they are capable of after all these years.
Now, Aly & Fila are back again, but this time they're bringing you a
little something different. 'The Chill Out' is an ambitious title for a
project and one that invites the content to live up to the name. We've
never doubted the production abilities of Egypt's finest dance duo, and
now theyÆre giving their songs a new way into the world.
You'll recognize a number of classics and hits from the duo here ('We
Control The Sunlight', 'Running', and more), with the tempo slowed down
sublimely so that you can listen all summer long. The musicality of
these records is undeniable, and in this new format, the songwriting and
production are given center stage.
This is 'The Chill Out', and we know you're going to love relaxing to
this record."
"From the first notes of this spine-tingling, hypnotic album, it is
evident that mysticism is inherent in Aly & Fila's music. As stirring as
it is powerful, the album immediately transports the listener from the
reality of the mundane world into a startlingly vibrant fantasyland
where anything is possible.
The orchestral strings that open the album tug at one's heartstrings
until the listener finds him or herself fighting back tears. The effect
is not cheapened by the latest high-tech studio shortcuts but it is
achieved because these producers understand human emotion better than
most.
To describe Aly & Fila's The Chill Out (Armada Music) album as being
cinematic is an understatement. Closing one's eyes, it's as though
timeless landscapes trapped within one's own psyche are suddenly set
free. Aly & Fila's album of downtempo, lush tunes is deceptively named
The Chill Out. Indeed, the music is downtempo and not meant for
peak-time on a packed dancefloor or a festival field, but it is anything
but bland. Aly & Fila have an uncanny ability to reach deep within the
listener's soul, and - no matter where the listener is from or of what
nationality or cultural background - grab at the very essence of
feeling.
Characterized by rich harmonies, thick pads, pulsating rhythms and
exotic overtones crafted by deftly constructed minor-key chords and
progressions, The Chill Out lingers with the listener long after the
last note has evaporated. As expert producers, Aly & Fila paint sonic
layer-upon-layer of melody, percussion, bass and sometimes vocals and
effects with a control as delicate and muscular as to seem otherworldly.
Exercising the finely honed timing earned after more than 10,000 hours
performing in front of live audiences, Aly & Fila are able to utilize
even silence to maximum effect. The restraint, patience and affection
this album conveys is positively stunning.
Aly & Fila (real names: Aly Amr Fathalah and Fadi Wassef Naguib) are
Egyptian electronic dance music (EDM) DJs and producers known for a
style of electronic music known as uplifting trance. In the recording
studio, they create enigmatic-sounding, evocative music characterized by
resonant basslines, driving percussion and opulent harmonies for an
uplifting trance sound that has come to be irresistible to their devoted
global fanbase. Each year, Aly & Fila perform more than 100 live shows
at leading nightclubs and festivals around the world; and their weekly
radio show, Future Sound of Egypt (FSOE), is broadcast on terrestrial,
satellite and Internet radio in more than 30 countries on 40 radio
stations and counting."
