Album Review

Italian producer and label-boss Nicola Conte had zero problems drafting a lineup of producers for the remix album following on from his debut Jet Sounds (or Bossa per Due, in its American reissue). Stateside financiers Thievery Corporation balance the bossa with a little hip-hop for their redo of his breakout "Bossa per Due," while Japan's Kyoto Jazz Massive delivers with a sprightful post-production of "The In Samba" and Koop re-imagine "Fuoco Fatuo" as a sweaty lounge workout. Others contributing creative covers include Finland's Nuspirit Helsinki and Bavarian favorites Les Gammas, but Conte also adds a trio of bracing new tracks to satisfy fans.

Customer Reviews

Beautiful fun music for your soul!

I really love this album a lot. Every song has rhythm and its own style from big band sound to soft mellow vocals. Its a fantastic take on Nicola Conte's music with vocals added to some instrumental music from other Conte albums. I love the remix for Mambo De Los Dandies! I was driving to the beach with this song and what a memorable experience that trip was since this CD was the soundtrack to the beach trip with friends. Very fun music will get you off your feet to dance the night away! This CD very recommended to anyone with blood running in the veins! will get your heart pounding!

Groovin Baby!

The arrangements are excellent. Syncopation timing stunning. Beautifully mixed. Songs take me away. Mission accomplished. Love the horns with Petrella. Who is the bass player???

Amazing!

Amazing re-interpretations of amazing songs by Nicola Conte. Most original track, ''New Standards'' (my favorite track from N. Conte - perfect to start a party), while best remix performed by Nuspirit Helsinki on ''Jet Sounds'' (they completely reinvented this track)

Part of the loose-knit Fez collective of artsy acid jazz revivalists centered in the Italian town of Bari, Conte was a classically trained musician who instead moved into production and DJing, working with artists...
