────[Release Note]──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

     Barcelona-born jazz singer Anna Luna traveled to Udine (Italy)
     to record, in 2007, her fifth solo album (and her second for
     the Spanish label New Mood Jazz). Now distributed by FAM,
     "Sketches" deserves to be praised as one of the most
     challenging albums, by a jazz songstress, to come along in
     years. It's a truly rare case of a perfect repertoire in the
     beautiful & pure voice of a perfect singer, with the support of
     an infallible group of musicians: Jaume Vilaseca (piano), Curro
     Gßlvez (bass), Roberto Faenzi (drums), Simone La Maida (alto
     sax, soprano sax, flute) and Massimo Morganti (trombone), under
     the smart executive production of Frank Andrada.

     A few seconds are enough to reveal the big influence of my
     favorite male jazz singer, Mark Murphy. A very positive
     inspiration, indeed. Wisely, Anna Luna doesn't try to imitate
     him, doesn't want to sound like a "female Murphy". She takes
     everything she learned from Mark's recordings and recycles the
     best ingredients, sounding like her own woman. Actually, it's
     very interesting to hear Anna performing some songs that have
     been part of Murphy's book for decades, such as Oliver Nelson's
     masterpiece "Stolen Moments" (for which Murphy later added
     lyrics in 1978 when recording an album also titled "Stolen
     Moments" for the Muse label). Most recently, this tune
     re-appeared as the centerpiece of his latest Verve project, the
     ultra-sophisticated "Love Is What Stays", voted one of the best
     albums of 2007 by the Jazz Station Poll. Now, "Sketches"
     certainly will make the 2008 list.

     Anna Luna is such an original force of nature that even too
     often recorded songs like "My Favourite Things" (in an up-tempo
     arrangement, full of time signature changes, with Anna phrasing
     rhythmically a la Diane Reeves during the tag while Simone La
     Maida evokes the underrateds Clifford Jordan & Charlie Rouse)
     and "What Are You Doing The Rest of Your Life?" (maybe
     Legrand's most haunting ballad, here spotlighting GalvΘz's warm
     bass lines) sound fresh and, believe it or not, "new" on her
     seductive voice. Btw, her ability on ballads is another big
     quality. Kudos also to the late Shirley Horn, another strong
     source of inspiration.

     The fact that Diana Krall recently recorded great versions of
     "Devil May Care" and "All or Nothing at All", doesn't
     intimidates her, who offers excellent renditions of both tunes,
     adding a latin-tinge to the latter. Even more surprising is the
     sensual treatment to "Early Autumn", which also showcases
     Morganti's trombone and Vilaseca on the Fender Rhodes I love so
     much.

     The performances of "Mediterrßneo" (written by Spanish pop star
     Joan Manuel Serrat) and Jobim's "Zingaro", retitled "Retrato em
     Branco e Preto" after Chico Buarque added lyrics (sung by Anna
     in Portuguese) are also noteworthy. Anna Luna's herself
     provided the Spanish lyrics to three songs: Sinatra's hit "If I
     Should Lose You" (done in a delightful unpredictable
     arrangement), Dizzy Gillespie's bop anthem "Night in Tunisia"
     (that became "Y Se Hace de Noche en Tunisia") and Cedar
     Walton's sunny original "Firm Roots". Amazing and stunning.

────[Group Notes]───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

     Dgn is around since 1998...

     After a few years, a few rippers who left, a few who joined, people
     greeting,people yelling, people threatening, people helping, people
     watching, we're still enjoying our aime: Let ppl listen to what they
     are gonna buy b4 they pay a single penny.


     There have been also some people and groups that helped out during the
     last few years, maybe it's because of them that (against all odds) we
     are still releasing and doing well, those know who they are, and we'll
     thank forever.


     We remind our beloved public, we're against all kind of distrubution,
     don't search our rips neither in your preferred XDcc channel, nor in
     your local 127.0.0.1 p2p program, We do not distribute ! But it's not
     nice to buy when you do not know what you're buying.
     As a matter of fact, DGN is a private group, and do not need rippers,
     fast or slow shells, traders, t1+ sites, couriers, prewhores, and hw
     suppliers, we need only a nice chalet in Switzerland/Canada or a Villa
     in the Caribbean sea where to listen to some chillout music.
     If you can supply any of those, for free, feel free to contact us for
     an application form.


     Remember to support the artists.
