New Music Release “Love is Everywhere” by CaDra

We’ve just released an EP containing 5 songs called “Love is Everywhere”.
It’s the second album by Dutch music duo and studio project CaDra.
Their debut “ Blissful Chess” was a concept album about moving from confusion to clarity in life. The new EP is different, now the central theme is Love (we’re hippies, remember!).

Each song describes Love from a different perspective:
Love as a universal principle, Love as something to fall into, Nirvanic Love and Love for Portugal’s sunny weather and Caipirinha.
Besides that every song belongs to a different music genre. On the EP you will hear Pop, Cocktail Jazz, New Age, Latin and Trance.

As you can expect from CaDra the music is well produced, including beautiful vocal choirs, acoustic and electronic instruments, smooth grooves and lots of ambiance.

Saxophone player Joep Smeenk, well known from “Gotcha! Allstars”, contributes on three of the songs. He added some great atmospheres with his juicy licks. He also, together with CaDra, composed the song “Nirvana”.

better.
