Background Information
The “Café del Mar” series of albums was a very successful collection of chill out music compilations. The series collects ambient easy listening music, and the first six volumes of the series were compiled by DJ José Padilla. The CDs are named after a bar located in Ibiza which is renowned for its sunsets and chill out music. This compilation of music was released under the name “Café del Mar: The Best Of Compiled by José Padilla” and the set collects some popular tracks off of earlier compilations in the series but also introduces new tracks such as the one released here by U2.
The song by U2 is “In a Little While”, which is a song that had been released in 2000 on the album “All That You Can’t Leave Behind”. The song was not released as a single, and no remixes of the song were issued during the time that album was being promoted. So it was a surprise that the song showed up here and as a remix, “In a Little While (N.O.W. Remix)”. The “N.O.W.” stands for Nightmares on Wax, who is a DJ from Leeds that was behind this remix of “In a Little While”. Very little information is included in the liner notes of this song pertaining to the remix, and the credits just list the song writers for the track.
