Title: a total retake on brazilian bossa nova
Product review: i simply love this lp. it takes the ideal of bossa nova (voice & "violo", acoustic guitar) and completely re-works the concept as a contemporary jazzy-electronic fusion that is so charming, you hardly miss the "violo". add to that Ms. Gilberto's sultry tones & you'll be in heaven from the first note.most of the credit must go to the deceased Suba, who produced the lp & revamped a fascinating brazilian musical tradition that has been much copied (often talentlessly), without in any sense antagonizing the original source.lounge/future jazz/downtempo... it's all here, as the remix album clearly shows
