Who owns the sea, Fish, who are living there, or the stars, shining on it since the beginning of times?
Or maybe the crazy one seeking for it? That«s what ÔFous De La MerÕ are, crazy about the sea.

After their legendary show in June 2001 at the Sonar Festival in Barcelona, Marko Bussian (keyboarder and Sound engineer) and Jean-Charles Vandermynsbrugge, the french bass and double bass player, (also bass player from Uwe SchmidtÕs World known ÔSenor Coconut and His OrchestraÕ), both members of the Glissando Bros decided to visit the mysterious island Ibiza, searching for new inspiration. That«s where they met the wonderful singer Sol Ruiz de Galaretta, one of the greatest voice of the magic island. (ÔIsland«s most beautiful mermaidÕ Pacha magazine) ÔFous De La MerÕ was born.

In 2004 they write their first album ÔStars & FishesÕ, one of the most emotional album of the balearic music style. Since these time, many of their songs, such as ÔNever Stop LovingÕ, ÔConmigoÕ, ÔWatersongÕ from their second album ÔUltramarÕ (2006) and instrumental pieces, such as ÔStars & FishesÕ, ÔVue sur la merÕ or ÔThe Real SantiÕ have become classics of the Chill Out genre.
The following album 'Ipanema' (2008) was a new interpretation of their own bestseller songs and a homage to the classical bossa nova music genre of the 60«s. Acoustic live instruments are mixed with smooth electronic elements, in their unique ÔFous De La MerÕ composition style.

Their new album, Reggatta De Bleu, whose name took inspiration from the 80Õs Police album ÔReggatta De BlancÕ, includes a homage to the french band Air, with a wonderful adaption of their late 90Õs hit ÔAll I NeedÕ. Besides, there are some stunning songs such as âTime To Wake UpÕ, âSay ItÕ, âBalanceando Mis CaderasÕ, âAll We Need Is LoveÕ, âNo Fun Without YouÕ and brilliant instrumental tracks such as âMy Rich GirlÕ, âA.n.o.t.he.r. L.ov.e. S.o.n.g.Õ, âAll Around The WorldÕ, âReggatta De BleuÕ, âTu Es Mon AngeÕ and âNuagesÕ that could be heard on the most sublime beaches of the world and evoke dreamy landscapes soaked in the soothing light of the setting sun.

On stage Fous De La Mer consequently offer a warm sound with fine electronic elements blending in with natural live instruments (Keys, Double Bass, Percussion, Guitar) and the wonderful voice of Sol Galarreta. Most of Fous De La Mer's songs are recorded with a traditional approach, using real instruments such as guitar, piano, bass and double bass, and accomplished by fine electronic elements and a base/groove reminiscing deep house. Fous De La Mer's live set exhibits a touch of wonderful summer heat and pop music, conjuring up a cocktail of natural sounds and electronic elements influenced by dub and deep house. A collection of fine and elegant sounds from the shores, dub, trip hop rhythms mixed with sensual mermaid songs. International jet setters and fast lane free travelers alike choose this music as a soothing soundtrack on a sojourn across the European landscapes... Starry nights, oceans, fresh air and relaxed minds ...Chill Out with attitude.
