He was immediately noticed by producers like Everything But the Girl's Ben Watt (who incorporated one of Rouge's tracks on the second volume of his acclaimed \"Buzzin Fly\" compilation series), and Dutch Cinq Etoiles label owner Monte La Rue, who remixed one of his songs. The UK press jumped on the bandwagon as well. Following such rave reviews, Rouge (a high school music teacher) decided to produce an album that would fulfill his goal of unifying the rich and varied Mediterranean cultures... at least for the length of one recording. From beginning to end, \"Mediterranean Excursions\" transports listeners with the North African sounds of \"El Wahrania,\" the Turkish exoticism of \"Ankara Days,\" the flamenco guitars of \"Mer Des Souvenirs,\" and the Hebraic \"Sound of the Bee.\" \"Mediterranean Excursions\" allows the listener's body and soul to become immersed by the feeling of the \"big blue.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Intro \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Use Your Imagination \u003cbr\u003e1.3 La Danse Du Serpent \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Voice of the Rain \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Just An Illusion \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Samsara \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Ankara Days \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Amaravatti \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Casablanca Streets \u003cbr\u003e1.10 El Wahrania \u003cbr\u003e1.11 Mer Des Souvenirs \u003cbr\u003e1.12 La Marche Du Vent \u003cbr\u003e1.13 Heavy Eyes \u003cbr\u003e1.14 Djamila \u003cbr\u003e1.15 The Sound of the Bee \u003cbr\u003e1.16 Outro\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
