Ron Trent and Jose Rico working together as Indigenous Travels – on a single that serves as a tribute to Azymuth's Jose Roberto Bertrami – and sure enough, it's got the tropical percussion and Brazilian flavour to show for it! "Paradise Ritmito Carnival" really does show some love for the feverish percussion and spacey atmoshere of Azymuth – blended with the cosmic clubby soul of Ron Trent and Downbeat Records' Jose Rico.

The most global grooves inflected slices of DJ Nu-Mark's Broken Sunlight project – with a Quantic collaboration that's as great as you would hope it to be – and an equally strong collabor with Laudir De Oliviera on the other side! "Tropicalifornia" is great mix of Quantic's love of Colombian, Latin American and African percussion flavors of the past couple years and DJ Nu-Mark's timeless Cali hip hop aesthetic. Lots of live instrumentation on this one – with steel drums and other percussion,Rhodes and other keys, horns, bass and more – but Nu-Mark's cuts are by no means buried in the mix. The flip is a Brazilian vocals and percussion heavy gem featuring lead vocals and by Laudir De Oliveira and some mighty chorus back up.
