I really like the lawrence of arabia theme, and I wanted to make a compilation where this one could fit. The theme I’ve adopted for the compilation was the desert. The compilation contain only instrumental tracks, and despites that it would inspire : heat, loneliness , beauty of landscape, the desire of water, middle east etc… After an insane number of search, deliberations I’ve finally made some choices , so that it fits on a CD. The discussions/reviews/videos I’ve seen on the web, helped me a bit to decide what’s more significant.
First the cover:
Then the playlist:
