Rick.e.dee’s acclaimed debut album BONDI CHILL, is a richly layered Progressive House Chill Out album with blissed-out beach bar grooves hypnotic beats, mysterious World Music sounds and a hauntingly beautiful Bulgarian Kaval played by the renowned Kim Sanders.
Rick.e.dee is an illustrious and energetic multi-media artist whose restless creativity and rebellious nature continually urge him to push the musical envelope. Bondi Chill is a dynamic and entertaining album that has touched music lovers worldwide garnering high praise from many critics. In just 4 weeks there were over 30,000 downloads from MP3.COM alone.
Rick Drummond (aka rick.e.dee) is a pianist guitarist, singer, drummer, composer and producer of fine Chill Out music. He grew up on the North Coast of New South Wales Australia. Learning classical piano and violin from the age of 5 his diverse musical taste in the first instance came from his classically trained parents who played piano cello and also jazz clarinet.
He moved to Sydney to study Architecture and spent a number of years working in that field. Guitar and drums were added to his musical skills. Apart from the occasional foray into live bands as guitarist or drummer (including the Undercover Police) rick.e.dee’s interest lay mainly in composing and learning as much musical theory as possible.
Ever since as a child he first heard the Sarod player Ustad Ali Akbar Khan rick.e.dee has always loved “World Music”. His travels took him through Asia and the Middle East and his music reflects the sounds of the exciting and fascinating urban and rural landscapes he found there. Add to this a natural sense of justice and astute political awareness you have a musician & composer with a conscience determined to work for change.
Bondi Chill is a child of the surf and party vibe of Bondi. Bondi Chill – the true heart of Bondi Beach Australia. You get gorgeous sunshine white sand and the ocean. The eternal beauty of a perfect wave. The drama and tranquility of surfing. The cool cafes and bars…
You could stop right there – and miss the real Bondi!
Bondi Chill takes you to a community of myriad nations their languages, culture, politics and, yes, music, always and again the music. Bondi Chill lets you listen to the famous African Drums of the Pavilion. It invites you to watch Brazilians doing Capoeira and join the South American Festival. You’ll meet a Polish poet and Australian Indigenous activists then become entranced by the otherworldly sounds of a flute in the Sufi tradition. You will find love stories and stories that tell of the love for freedom in so many places by so many people unified by the cool beats of summer. The feel of Bondi Chill could be described as Buddha Bar meets Hotel Costes meets Thievery Corporation with a hint of Kruder & Dorfmeister and more than a dash of World Music.
