How can you go wrong when you combine Italian composer Aldo Brizzi with some of the biggest stars in Brazil (Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, Virginia Rodrigues, Tom Ze, and others)? You can’t. This mix blends Brazilian popular music jazz, electronica & world beats. Good stuff all, way cool.
*1. Delicious mid-tempo & intriguing w/a dark, jazzy sound.
*2. Soft and romantic w/wonderful vocals. Slow & sexy.
3. Drums, hip-hop, strings & lush male vox combine. Interesting.
4. Deep, dramatic female vocals in a slow, haunting, ballad.
*5. Funky bass/drums, coll vocal duet. Mid/uptempo, driving.
*6. Relaxed mid-tempo groove w/fun vocals/strings/perc.
7. A slow & romantic duet w/light, jazzy flair & nice perc.
8. Relaxed jazz poem blending vocals w/spoken word, piano. Etc.
9. An epic that ranges from slow & romantic to dramatic drums.
*10. Great drums/vocal effects combine. An avant garde romp.
*11. Spare & dramatic/fast & folksy. Strangely captivating.
12. Rich, almost operatic fem vox, lush strings, slow, romantic.
