NAT KING COLE & Various Artists
Electronic sonic alchemy with Hip Hop, Latin, Reggae & Rock mix/mash up of great Nat King Cole tunes with the voice of Nat himself. Nice tribute in what would have been his 90th Birthday year. All tracks are very good and a chance for folks not familiar with Nat King Cole to hear some pretty cool tunes and his great voice.
1: 3:16 Nat's vocal Cee-Lo-Green fast drum kit
2: 2:16 Natalie Cole duo, Will.i.am, poppy tune
3: 2:44 Cut Chemist funky soul groove, drum kit/machine??
4: 4:48 Bebel Gilberto sings in Portuguese, strings, lounge
5: 2:28 Nas Hip Hop produced by Salaam Remi, faster
***6: 4:15 featuring The Roots, big band Jazzy@2:40 Hip Hop rap very cool mix/mash up
***7: 3:43 Souldiggaz & Izza Kizza nice hip hop/rap/spoken word big bass drum, female chorus
****8: 4:32 calypso by Damian "Jr Gong", Marley & Stephen Marley, reggae mix/mash up
9: 3:19 fast big orchestra sound, by Bittersweet, breathy female vocals
****10: 4:56 fast Tango sound intro, great drumming, produced by Brazilian Girls, Nat sings in Spanish
***11: 3:55 talk intro then low & sultry Just Blaze mix
12: 3:09 slow dreamy electronic soundscape by Amp Fiddler
13: 3:12 big lush orchestration by TV on the Radio with Nat's velvety vocals D Farrell 11/2009
