Far Out (UK), 2010. New Copy
Wonderful work from Os Ipanemas – the legendary Brazilian jazz combo who've been revived in recent years, thanks to the efforts of Far Out Records! This album may well be our favorite so far from the combo – as it seems to take their core rhythmic groove, and flesh it out even more

Aventura
Far Out (UK), 2009. New Copy
A different groove than usual for Jose Roberto Bertrami – and a record that definitely lives up to the promise of its title! Bertrami's really broken free from the regular Azymuth groove on this set – much more so than on some of his recent solo albums – playing here with a vibe

A very groovy little combo from Peru – one who definitely live up to the "bossa" in their name, but who also feature a lot of other great styles too! In a way, the approach here is a bit like the A&M take on bossa nova that showed up on the LA scene in the wake of Sergio Mendes
