Search - Various Artists :: Brazilectro: Latin Flavoured Club Tunes 7

The success of the previous Brazilectro releases confirms Audiopharm?s philosophy and also spurs it on to improve the series from release to release. In the last few years, Brazilectro has become a measuring stick of the genre. Other labels have tried and tried to play a role in this element with simply knit imitations, yet the standard raised by Audiopharm simply could not be reached by the others; at their best, they only produced cheap copies with suspiciously close-to-identical track listings. The latest instalment, Session 7, once again supplies a first-class set of authentic Brazilian songs and those inspired by Brazilian music, as well as classics and contemporary constructions that were either produced exclusively for Brazilectro or only available on 12-inch vinyl. In total, 24 catchy club filler and sweet promises romp around on the double CD/3 Vinyl box - all there to listen to while sitting at the home on the flokati. Of course, the lavish packaging, a constant for all the Brazilectro albums, consists of an embossed digibook with brillant cover art work. This time one looks at the Metropolitan Museum of Modern Art in Rio de Janeiro, a futuristic, spacey designer construction of the legendary Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer, in front of the Zuckerhut. One look at the track listing reveals that Audiopharm is again acting on the pulse of current happenings. Filled with international artists with their newest productions, the Audiopharm has been able to unify this variety in an extremely lithe, organic sequence. Highlights are everywhere and many, and listening to Brazilectro Session 7 resembles being a civil servant in time and space, since one fancies sitting under the sugar loaf in the pulsing South American metropolis of Rio de Janeiro. Recommendable when listening to such a mix, from the velvety soft to the more than lively, is to down a luscious cold Caipirinha, making the pleasure all the more authentic. Then the Brazil feeling will flow into the blood and transform the Brazilectro gourmet into a serene, sensuous - and perhaps also - better person.
