Synopsis

Album Description
Multi-talented artist Mayumi Kaneyuki may become the hottest female Latin sensation from Japan with her fiery Mambo beats and smooth Bossa Nova attitude. Mayumi Kaneyuki is noted for her silky vocals and sexy image built on her stunning asian beauty. These original compositions feature Mayumi Kaneyuki's unique sound build by the classy production and keyboard work of Carlos Campos. In this latest production, Carlos Campos engages in some cross-cultural music that ranges from stylish New York Salsa to jungle flavored Brazilian Maculele to ambient Peter Gabriel like orchestration. In "Bossa Nova No Cafe" Mayumi?s silk vocals stand out as Carlos? lush string arrangements a la Claus Orgerman. "Wonderland" is an afro-latin treat with aggressive percussion and horn arrangements while Mayumi scatts effortlessly over this track. In "Geisha" Mayumi brings all asian sensuality in her vocal performance as Carlos plays a piano solo in the style of Chucho Valdez. The song selection in this album is a courageous mix of different styles in which Mayumi and Carlos showcase their impressive musical talent, and may give another meaning to the term World Music.

"I discovered Mayumi by accident, listened to some samples, and I was blown away. It has tons of great songs. The vocals are gorgeous, the rhythms are completely infectious. Just pop it in and it brings your whole energy level up. This woman is such a largely undiscovered treasure."
