For a song and melody that has given me goosebumps on a very sunny day, then that can only be a good thing... In the early 70's starting off a mere cover band as Grupo Seleção, 1973 was the year in which they switched to the name Azymuth inspired by a Marcos & Paulo Sérgio Valle production. Their first album (named after the band too), was released two years later and featured the hit 'Linha Do Horizonte.' In 1976 they recorded other minor hits like the single "Melô da Cuíca" and "Jazz Carnival" and then they [...]

It's really late and I'm too tired to explain this post, but I hope you enjoy the groove. If you want this gem on vinyl, it will set you back $45.00 USD . Read more about Azymuth at Wikipedia here . Azymuth - Maracanã (us 12"mix) by loudersoft Rating: 0.0/ 10 (0 votes cast)

I'm kind of weird about my tunes. Whenever I see a mix is in a single Mp3, normally I don't bother fooling with it. Why? I'm lazy and I don't want to skip through to find the parts I like (kinda like a cassette tape, no?). But, A Blog Called Fresh compiled it, and I spotted it over at Dirtywork so I downloaded it. And I played the entire thing. So now I'll return the favor. Pop the hood for tracklist. We got some bossanova, funk, old [...]

Vibrant vibrations today with one of Brazils most influential bands, Azymuth and their samba jazz-fusion funk from their 1975 debut album re-released a few years back (with remixed versions of most of the songs). Tonic : Azymuth - Linha Do Horizonte (Kashmeer Brothers Remix) (don lowed)

At long last the postman has been kind and the new wax is flowing again. This little blog turned 3 years old a couple of weeks ago and I think these tunes are worthy of a bit of a celebration post. So far these Black Cow 45s have scored a big 2 out of 2. So vintage yet so fresh. The A-side on the second release, O.P. Connection, is a dense party-funk jam with noodling bass and an over-excited horns section. These will continue to sell out seriously quickly so be alert like the grasshopper. [...]

***So I have my top lists compiled, I just haven't been able to fully write it out yet. And since I will be in New York for New Year's, my top lists will not be out until I get back. Super sorry!

Have a great new years and enjoy the mixtapes! Stay tuned for my top lists within two weeks!*** Hope everyone had a good new [...]

Nuovo appuntamento con le uscite della settimana. Non possiamo non cominciare citando l'attesissimo ritorno degli AC/DC , tra gli unici/ultimi a non distribuire le singole canzoni online ma credendo nel formato cd, di cui siamo certi venderanno moltissime copie, come sempre. Tra gli italiani c'è poi molta attenzione per i duetti di Ornella Vanoni e per il nuovo particolare disco di inediti di Vinicio Capossela . C'è poi l'altra importante raccolta di duetti di Luciano Pavarotti mentre dal nostro indie arriva un cofanetto cd+dvd dello spettacolo teatrale [...]

With the economy in shambles and the mere existence of Sarah Palin, we are in the midst of some funky times. Time to neutralize the negativity with the other kind of funk. To kick things off, we've got the title track of Pleasure's 1977 album, Joyous . Then get ready for a Loft-style workout courtesy of Brazilian jazz-funk band Azymuth. Pleasure - Joyous | ZShare | YSI | 320 kbps [...]

The sun is back with us for a short while at least. Made me dig out my Brasilian box which I think I'll go through over the next few days. Shocking how we forget tunes, but such a joy to revive them later at the right moment. Here's a worn out copy of Dear Limmertz from the Outubro LP. It snaps and pops a bit near the end, so apologies for that. This was a huge track for me out in Japan in the late '90s early '00s. I first heard [...]

we got to the restaurant quarter after 9 and there were hardly anyone there. true, it's still early, but it was also sunday night; either way, it didn't look like there's going to be a crowd. which suited us fine. beyond tired after 4 intense days running a conference for over 1,000 people, we welcomed the chance to keep to ourselves. monica , carlos 's wife, order a bunch of appetizers for us. she pointed to me and told the waiter to hurry before i starved to death. the duck tacos, looking [...]
BRASILINTIME est un documentaire musical. Ce projet de longue haleine mené par Mochilla le crew de L.A. trafiquant d'images. Les photographes B+ et Coleman se sont emparés de la caméra pour continuer à explorer leurs univers musicaux. Après Keep in Time , rencontre filmée entre DJ hiphop et anciens, batteurs et percussionnistes qui ont des heures de sessions au compteur et à qui il est urgent de rendre hommage. La liste des DJ et musiciens est tout juste hallucinante : [...]
Attention je vais dire des gros mots. La semaine dernière déjà, c'était limite, mais les morceaux nous ramenaient vers le festif, le funk, le samba. Seulement voilà, Azymuth est, pleinement, un groupe de Jazz fusion. Ce sont des « musicos' », de ces types en chemise à fleurs qu'on peu voir tripatouiller des étages de claviers dans les retransmissions télé du Festival de Jazz de Montreux. Bref, tout ce qu'aime la blogothèque. A l'étape description je dirais qu'Azymuth c'est une rythmique efficace et aérée (...)
