Hungarian electronica producer, Fonogeri, has recently released all 3 of his soothing, melancholic chillout albums on Creative Commons music site, Jamendo. This means that you can stream every track in full AND download the mp3s absolutely FREE! His latest album, Letters From Home, was just released this past August and contains a staggering 20 tracks. After having sampled his earlier albums, I would have to agree with the artist statement that this is “Fonogeri’s hottest album.” While still retaining the ambient atmosphere of past releases, Letters adds “a bit of the Hungarian spice,” as the bio so aptly puts it. There is an edgier feeling to these compositions — perhaps a slight urban feel — that helps propel the album along. Breaking up the largely instrumental pieces are a few with vocal samples which add a more human element which I appreciate. The lyrics of “Tough Song,” in particular, add to that “urban” feel; “Uptown. Feeling it baby…” I could easily imagine Fonogeri’s music alongside the artists of Sine Music, Tyranno Lounge Records, or Billo Music. This is some pretty top notch chillout lounge, so I suggest you download it now while you can still get it for free!
