CD Reviews

Bongo Brazilian Beats!!
Latino | uk | 10/01/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"You simply cant go wrong for the money with Brazilian I've been listening to the CD's on the way to work, and they are fantastic. CD 1 alone is worth the money. The music style ranges from thumping house, to traditional bossa nova, to funky tunes that sound like they've been lifted from a 70's porn soundtrack and beefed up.



I'm now on CD 4 and I've yet to be bored, or hear a tune that I dont like. I'm sure the rest of the CD's in the box set are just as varied, just as enjoyable and just as cool.



Like me, if you want to expand your musical horizons, then this is a really good sample/introduction into Brazilian music.



Next time I'm having a BBQ, this CD Box set is going to get played all the way through. Its fantastic.
