and it's sunday, time to kick back, relax and review some current purchases..
the Quartin album ft. Victor Assis Brasil, Piri & José Mauro (Farout). if you like some solid (brazilian) instrumental jazz then this is definitely an album for you. The José Mauro tracks are mpb.
St. Germain - Tourist 2xlp (on Blue Note Baby!), this is the album to buy right now, right here! This mix of house, jazz, hiphop, soul, gospel and deepness is going to end up very high on this year's top ten list (well on my list that is) ft. Idrissa Diop (talking drum) and Ernest Ranglin (flute... err..guitar)
Kyoto Jazz Massive come correct with Eclipse/Silent Messenger 12" (compost records)
Jazzy bossa sounds from Japan, upbeat instrumental
Roy Davis Jr. - People from Mars 12"(earth, moon, sun recordings)
another beauty by Mr Davis Jr. percussion//jazzy house for all you sunshine people
George Benson - The Ghetto/El Barrio MAW 12" (Verve)
This is not a new Nu Yorican Soul issue right? It's just ol' George and the MAW brothers ft. Joe Sample. oh well it's delicious and I saw it at every recordshop here.
Bah Samba - Black Blood 12" (estereo)
the original is a funky brazilian track played with live instruments.whereas the Galera's rainy city version is a jazzy percussive upbeat bossa track ending in a batucada. Check that killer Funky Lowlives mix on the flip.
a loud house pumper
John Lucien - Minds Eye reissue lp (RCA) lovely album ft a lot of classic tracks as Adoration, Listen Love.
Sweet Abraham - Spreading Outward e.p (deep4life) on transparent vinyl. Diaspora: Deep house track with a deep male Barry White voice chanting "Diaspora" every 20 seconds.
Nubian Mindz - Black Science (Restless Soul mix)/ Urban Beats (Archive)
Strange jazzy beats mixed with horns and keys..nice!
Antonio - Romance en El Barrio (Tribal Winds). Another classic percussive jazzy house track by Antonio
that's it, I'm broke and I'm out.
