YES ! This is what I'm talking about.... Much like their last album they experiment with the fusion of Celt and trip-hop accompanied by lush, graceful voices and spoken, poetic words. But here they take it to a much maturer level, crankin' up the adrenaline to leave the listener fully awed. And while the last album felt hollow and devoid of much emotion, here they come alive by showing their true colors, as displayed in a vast array of rainbowshades on the cover. (Could it be a sign perhaps?) ~ I had a hunch that this would be better than the redundance of "Underworld," but I had no idea that it would be THIS good. It's sort of a softer more ambient version of Afro Celt Sound System.
"Prolog" and "Anthem Of The Gods" are dreamy, dance-lilting Celt openers, paving the way for slightly more inducing ambient-pop tunes with a sprinkle of fairydust on top, just to make it all the more ethereal.... "Delilah" and "Angel Eyes" (my absolute favorite) go "Sailing By" to make this one trip you'll never, nor want, to forget. Can't recommend this any higher.

Dagda do it again, August 22, 2001
Reviewer: Mr Andy Cull from Bermuda
With very little publicity, and only being on the scene for a short time, Dagda are beginning to give Enigma a run for there money. This album is by far the best they have produced so far, each track flows very well from one to the next, this would be a good addition to any collector who uses music for meditation, yoga, relaxation or just chill out mood. Expect good reviews from the professional critics for this little number, and keep an eye out for bigger and better things from Dagda in the future. I love this album and thoroughly recommend it.

Celtic Bliss, August 10, 2002
Reviewer: pagan_warrior from Jordan
A link through all the great cultures of the earth. Unlike previous Dagda albums which have had roots in Celtic mythology, this album takes a global theme. It is presented as a view from outer space giving scope to explore new age sounds with a space age feel. The Celtic influence is still there but this time with hints of a rock undercurrent. This is best described as celtic-ambient-trance music. It has a very dreamy and mystical quality with enchanting female vocals on many of the tracks. There is also some poetic spoken phrases that add to its appeal. They blend traditional celtic instruments and melodies with modern electronic layers quite nicely. On a personal note, Dagda is becoming one of my favorite new age bands as their continuous magic seems unending and unnatural in its creativity and vigor. Buy this without hesitation!

WOW! Ambient pop bliss, May 8, 2002
Reviewer: Michael Carr
From The Darker Side Of Heaven\ Coming off from the excellent Underworld CD Dagda get even better with SWTGOL. This CD is very much like Celtic trance with cloudy day ambient grooves but except while that album was kind of repetitive this album is more varied and is very different from Underworld. Underworld was a bit more ominous in sound. This album is much more what I would say, crystal-blue in sound. I walked down the sidewalk on a cloudy dusk and I was in total bliss when listening to this album because the melodies capture images of those kind of days (I often tend to Enjoy cloudy evenings for some reason). This album is beautiful. If you want music to raise your musical IQ by 100 points, I say get this CD. Captivates your mind and reaches deep into your soul.

Buy it if you value your ears. April 25, 2002

I found this CD whilst looking for something completely different, had a little extra money, and decided to give it a listen.... Trusting to Fate paid off, this is one of the best discs I've ever heard. Wonderfully swirling, colourful, evocative, and dreamy. I recommend this album to everyone I know, and now I'm recommending it to people I don't know.... If you like Celtic, Trance, or New Age at all, you'll love Sleeping with the Gods of Love. (I suppose if they're Gods of Love you'll love sleeping with them anyway, but I really did mean the album.) Download Angel Eyes, give it a listen, and then keep in mind that the rest of the album is that good. It all flows together beautifully. For all you sages and witches, it makes a great ritual soundtrack. To those of you who aren't into that, it's just great music. You'll enjoy it.

MYSTICAL & DREAMY--FULL OF LONGING & SINCERITY,
July 29, 2002 Reviewer: Soaring Heart
From The gods of Love live here! SLEEPING WITH THE GODS OF LOVE is a cd that I will never part with; it's staying with me for life! How many cd's can you say that about? I know I haven't said it about many. Five stars doesn't do it justice. How the songs flow together from start to finish as well as the balance of lyrical melodies spaced with instrumentals is brilliantly compelling. It pulls the listener into it. I Love music that does this to me! You can lean back and float while this is on. It's great for meditation, relaxing, yoga, tai chi, studying, writing--ANYTHING! - I can't recommend this any higher. If you like Loreena McKennitt, Dead Can Dance and Lisa Gerrard, Govinda and/or Enigma, I am pretty certain you will enjoy SLEEPING WITH THE GODS OF LOVE. Soar!

Third from Dagda, this creative blending encompasses the best of their first two releases. "Celtic Trance," the debut, gave the Afro-Celts a run for their money. "Underworld" is more in the dreamy and dramatic vein of De Fresnes, Stephen Baer, etc. On "Sleeping with the Gods of Love" we find some of the same Celtic melodies, with string movements, syncopated rhythms, haunting, slightly exotic vocals, flute, piano & harp. With new songs and a cleaner production sound, Dagda gets great results from combining ambient trance and rhythm with the magic and mysticism of the ancient Celts, transported to modern times.
