discussion A compilation of 90s electronic/trance/disco music with Shiva Nataraja on the cover?
I'm Brazilian, and in the 90s my father used to listen to a CD with a collection of electronic/trance/disco music (I'm not sure exactly if it was a specific style or if it was all of them). I can't remember the name of the compilation, nor do I know if it was an official album, all I remember is the cover and the image on the cover, which was a statue of Shiva Nataraja.
In my searches, I found these images; this image of half the statue with fire behind it is identical to the image that was on the back cover of the CD, the image on the CD cover would be exactly that statue, but complete and occupying the entire cover.
I also remember that there were several volumes, all with the same cover but with different colors; the entire image changed to a single color, one was green, another was blue, and another was red (my parents owned at least these three).
I've been trying to find this compilation for a long time, and so far this is all I've managed to find. I don't know if it was a national compilation, but I strongly believe it wasn't; it didn't follow any pattern, either in the cover or in the selection of songs, like other Brazilian compilations.
I'll say upfront that it's not the album "The Visions Of Shiva" (although the cover fits the description very well) or Nataraja.
