DUNE contains the haunting southwest border-country Flamenco that Ottmar Liebert and his band Luna Negra are famous for. This isn’t your old school Flamenco. Acoustic guitars mix with electric, gypsy accordion, electric bass, funky drum-boxing and percussion. There’s no rain in this music, just poetic sunshine at midnight.
“I wanted to play guitar melodies that sounded sung”, says Ottmar. “For some reason I kept thinking about old jazz and pop crooners. So I sang almost every melody first and then figured out how to play it on guitar.
