Synopsis

Album Description
This fourth installment of the now highly acclaimed Buddha Bar series is presented to you by resident #1 DJ David Visan. After studying music at the Los Angeles Music Institute, Parisian born Visan returned home to France where he was educated in the ways of deejaying by Claude Challe himself (Buddha Bar & Buddha Bar II) His mentor went on to train him in the spirit of the Buddha Bar. Buddha Bar 4 is a new sound adventure and the perfect follow up to its previous volumes. The series grows stronger with each release and IV is no exception. Visan injects new life into this double CD set and unlike the many that have tried to emulate the style of the Buddha Bar he carries you away with as much power, if not more, than those who have previously created the perfect sound in a perfect Bar. Packaged in a deluxe flip-top box. 2002.

"Known for its avant-garde "Lounge" and "Chill" playlist, the Buddha Bar is a chic Buddha-themed club in Paris. The "Buddha Bar" series was started by Tunisian house DJ Claude Challe, who practically invented the chill genre of lounge music in 1999 by mixing Occidental elements with spiritual elements in his music. I'll always associate this fourth Buddha-Bar compilation disc with a Breton love interest, who gave the CD to me as a gift several years ago because it was her favorite in the Buddha-Bar series. Produced and sequenced by Buddha Bar house DJ David Visan, Buddha Bar 4 is an intoxicating fusion of tabla-driven planetary grooves from the Middle East, North Africa, India, and Brazil, with hip Parisian references.
