i don't know about you guys, but i love this tune. its a complete classic. i was just wondering if Anyoona is a real place?? anybody have any info on the title?? it conjures up images of mystery and adventure...so just curious...

I thought it was a woman, but the real reason i posted here is because it just so happens at this very moment i am listening to Jam & Spoon - Stella. What an coincedence eh?

I love the retro "stripped down" feel of the tracks. They are fairly simple, yet that simply adds to the aesthetic appeal to them in my mind. A lot of trance nowadays is just "fluffy" trite crap.

Is in my all-time top 3

Qattara's Heaven and hell remix is where it's at.

Although it bears almost nothing in resembelance to the original. Original is one of the best Jam & Spoon Plavka vocal tracks, although I think "Right In The Night" edges it a little. Jam & Spoon were so far ahead of their time back then.

What a classic!

I finally got my hands on:
Jam & Spoon - Odyssey To Anyoona (Qattara's Heaven & Hell Mix)

after all this time!!

old thread....still awesome tune hehehe

The 2004 breaks booty of Odyssey to Anyoona which is funnily titled as "Anjuna Boot", is great and was also one of my 2004 favs and still loving it. I hate why did it need to be titled as Anjuna. "Boot To Anyoona" would have been better and i rather use that name for it myself. Boot To Anyoona would have been closer to the titling style of the mysterious and talented producer who also made breaks booties of Baby D - Let Me Be Your Fantasy (aka Let Me Boot Your Fantasy) and Kraftwerk - Pocket Calculator.

yeah i agree

why change it to anjuna

Listen to Y Traxx - Mystery Land and spot the similarity. I think there are other tunes who have nicked the chants as well as that distinct melody pattern this tune has. Splendid tune nonetheless, and more evidence to what J&S were capable of back then.

Hmm, I think it's pretty shit. Not a patch on Stellar.
