Set to a lush, ethereal, engaging bed of distinctive and sophisticated pop arrangements, it combines the best qualities of Sylvian's post-Japan work. Four years in the making, it is artful and tasteful from the opening Bryan Ferry-style ballad \"I Surrender\" to the bluesy \"Midnight Sun\" and the delightful \"Krishna Blue.\" There are contributions from sometime collaborator Ryuichi Sakamoto as well as a classy, eclectic group of musicians including Bill Frisell, Marc Ribot, Talvin Singh, and Sylvian's brother, Steve Hansen, but Sylvian is definitely in the fore here. Dead Bees on a Cake will be a surprising discovery for fans of Sade, John Martyn, and the Blue Nile, and it may afford Sylvian overdue recognition as an uncommonly gifted pop composer and singer. --John Sutton-Smith      Product Description      David Sylvian began his career as composer and vocalist with the innovative British band Japan. Following a collaboration with Ryuichi Sakamoto - Sylvian's 1st worldwide chart success, \"Forbidden Colours\" - he recorded several solo albums, later striking up a musical partnership with guitarist Robert Fripp (King Crimson). Dead Bees on a Cake continues his collaborative efforts, including contributions from guitarist Marc Ribot and Brit-Asian producer and tabla player Talvin Singh.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 724384707125\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0724384707125\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ID Shop.ca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45961187950626,"sku":"N1-2V3F-4N7I","price":15.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/9428\/3554\/files\/51nG60li6PL.jpg?v=1783641875","url":"https:\/\/kastor.club\/products\/david-sylvian-dead-bees-on-a-cake-cd-used","provider":"Kastor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
