Editorial Reviews

Music is variety. Nowadays no one is bound to listen to only one certain style. Jazz, Pop, Electro, ethnic influenced music styles, these and much more opens the horizon of a cosmopolitan and well informed person. Rules regarding different styles of music are gone; everything is open, fruitful differences and a harmonic relation to all genres. The base material is flexible and has a lot of variety, the resources are inexhaustible... and here we are with Brazilectro Session 6, a mix of the best Brazilian rhythms with contemporary club culture.

Summer is just around the corner and Audiopharm is presenting, just in time, Volume 6 of its successful series. Danceable and loungy, no matter if you enjoy the music in a club or in your own living room, it feels right and cozy. As usual, Brazilectro 6 compiles highlights from Brazil, Portugal, Belgium, England, Sweden, Italy, Germany and the US. Eight exclusive tracks from Soulsurfer, Moodorama, The Capoeira Twins, Petgroove, Groove Galaxi, Flamingo Star, Dr. Beatnick and The NonMaterial special remix, until now not available on CD, Maga Bo, Fort Knox, Five, Ikon, Mo’Horizons and the only in Japan released track Change of Da Lata.

Twenty-six tracks, twenty-six well-known names; even the greatest esthetic will receive satisfaction.

This review is from: Brazilectro: Latin Flavoured Club Tunes 6 (Audio CD)

At least to me. I can't imagine a summer coming by these days without seeing the newest from this franchise that now spans 6 volumes! (8 if you include the Brazilution series on Ministry of Sound) And what is Brazilectro without more exclusive cuts? That's what sets the series apart from the commercial compilations and there are plenty here along with neat remixes.

The style of this set is very similar to the 5th one, only a bit funkier with CD2 being the stand-out. On CD1 you have some African influences along with mellowed out musical tracks like dr. beatnick's cool Terra Nova and Briskey's "Galactic Jack", remixed by Buscemi (if you have St. Germain Des Pres Cafe IV, this is it). Ikon's "Vai E Vem" is given a smooth remix with a twist and Soul Surfer's "Imploracao" has a cool feel to it with a touch of, I believe, Rosalia De Souza's vocal sampled into it. Even [Re:jazz] have a funky cut to close out disc 1. But disc 2 proves to be the strongest with standout cuts being Cool Hipnoise's swingin' "Dama Dada", Ty's soulful and rich "Inner Love", Petgroove's vocal and spacey bossa "Beside Brazil". But the real gem - A Bossa Eletrica's "Tudo Esta Previsto" will take you to Brazil and there more great tunes.

It's Brazilectro! Always recommended. And of course some of these cuts will appear on rip-off compilations that will come out in a few months. The bad - CD1 doesn't start so promising to me - they should've kicked it off with Dr. Beatnik's cut, "Parabens" is on Brazilectro 6's sister compilation titled "Brazilution 5.2" (also recommended), and while the packaging is beautiful like a book (same as Brazilectro 5), don't carry it around everywhere because the discs will probably slip out! It's not quite as strong as the 4th one, but is about on par with the 5th one since disc 2 makes up for disc 1's few missteps.

ALSO - Brazilectro 6 has a DVD out now in Europe, which has even more tunes on it. So it's definitely worth the pick-up if you're a fan of the series - it reminds me of Red Hot&Rio's TV special. And if you really dig this - check out the rest of the series, Brazilution 5 and 5.2, Brazilation and Nova Latino IV.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must-Have!, June 21, 2005

Anjee "World music diva" (Pittsburgh, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Brazilectro: Latin Flavoured Club Tunes 6 (Audio CD)

This set presents a deliciously balanced mix of up- and down-tempo latin-flavoured music. I bought the set banking on the presence of soild artists I already knew of, like Zuco 103 and Da Lata, but was also pleasantly surprised by unfamiliar artists such as Stereo Maracana.
Great turned up at a party, or turned down for a study session or chill event. I liked this set enough to start slowly amassing all of the other CDs in the Brazilectro series.... they're all absolutely worth having.

Good CD, quiet lounge music, with here and there some quicker tracks. Good buy.
