Awesome Set!.......2007-07-01

I am a huge fan of Jerry Goldsmith. They did a great job preserving his vision. I can listen to this collection for hours. Great music!

Elmer Bernstein Film Music Collection.......2006-11-03

This is compilation of hit film music from one of the greatest composers in motion pictures. What is surprising though is the music not included like the Ghost And The Darkness, the 13th Warrior, Rudy and others. To be sure, 4 discs are not enough for a composure of this stature. THe recording, however, is an "engineering masterpiece" which makes the music even more enjoyable than when you first heard it at the movies. When are we ging to get the music that was omittd from this compilaton?

Overall a strong Goldsmith sampler.......2006-04-11

Okay, this is a CD review, so the focus is on music, but I've got to say this first: this has got to be a contender for the ugliest cover art ever. I mean, come on...instead of a tribute to the composer, the cover looks like someone spilled a glass of merlot over a NASA photo.

Fortunately, even an ugly cover will not ruin good music. And the good news is that I'd say about 75 percent of the music is good....and on a 4 cd set, that's a lot. Like other Silva compilations, the strength of this compilation is the variety. There are selections from the big releases (Star Trek, Omen, Rambo), but there is also a healthy dose of tracks from the smaller releases(Under Fire, Lionheart, The Swarm).

Two examples come to mind. Capricorn One and The Great Train Robbery are two movies that are not exactly household names today, but are dominated by two of Goldmith's finest main themes. The City of Prague Philharmonic come through with terrific renditions. And there are plenty of other strong performances...a few being concert versions conducted by Goldsmith himself. Suprisingly, "The Wind and the Lion" works, which is no small accomplishment given the ferentic original performance of "Raisuli Attacks".

It's not a complete success. A few of the performances fall flat, particularly some of the more inventive scores. Total Recall is just bad, mangling the performance with poor percussion and synthesizer choices to boot. Also a letdown is the Klingon Attack from the first Star Trek movie. The Prague Philhamonic attempt doesn't sound bad--it's just that once you've heard the original soundtrack's "blaster beam" with enough bass to rattle your teeth...well let's just say Silva's version is a little tinny in comparison.

But I shouldn't dwell on the negative. Overall, this is a strong sampler of Goldsmith's variety. There are plenty of quality performances here, and despite a few omissions (noticeably Planet of the Apes)this is a very good release from Silva.

Jerry Goldsmith - 40 years of pleasure.......2006-02-22

It was wonderful to hear Mr. Goldsmith's music that went all the way back to The Man from UNCLE, The Waltons, Dr Kildare, etc. And then to hear his music up to the present. The man was a genius!

Almost the perfect compilation.......2005-12-31

Age has its value.... This sweeping collection of compositions brings back so many great memories. This collection shows how significant Goldsmith was for both the movie screen and the small screen. With such a grand collection, every reader can be assured that at least one movie or TV program they like or remember had Goldsmith's contribution. It was an amazing life and the collection well worth having.

However, as sweepig as it is, there are a few holes in the selection. "First Contact", one of the sweetest and richest compositions from the Star Trek is absent. "The Ghost and the Darkness" is missing and the "Medicine Man" music should include the theme song. By dwelling on several selections from the Blue Max, these were squeezed out. Three full and important movie themes got the axe.

However, all but "The Ghost and the Darkness" are readily available and not overly expensive as is the "Ghost" CD. This is a must have for the TV and movie music fan.

Before there was Hans Solo there was Napolean Solo, before ER there was Dr. Kildare. Jerry Goldsmith IS Sci-Fi. "Resistance is futile.. you MUST assimilate this CD collection."

Amazon.com's Best of 2000

Virginia Rodrigues's sophomore album, Nos, is the sort of session that sends chills up the spine--and a warm gust straight to the soul. Her version of Bahian music employs the Brazilian region's percussive traditions in almost subterranean ways so that her voice can soar across the top of the rhythms. There's a mysticism and spiritual core to Nos that's of course connected deeply to Bahian traditions but has global relevance. --Andrew Bartlett

Amazon.com

The Bahian region of Brazil has sent the world some invaluable music, much of it expressed to the widest audience through artists who aren't native to the region. So the drummers of Olodum propel Paul Simon's Rhythm of the Saints and deeply inspire Caetano Veloso and untold other Brazilian artists. Virginia Rodrigues, though, is the quintessence of the region's aesthetic pricelessness. Her Sol Negro won global accolades, and its follow-up, Nós, is an even more precious gem. Rodrigues melds Bahian rhythmic aesthetics and a pop feel that ranges from evening-gown jazz hybrids (with choral background vocals!) to sheer displays of her broad-winged midrange vocalizations. Produced by Veloso, Nós opens with a song for the African deity Exú and invokes periodic ritual energies, swirling languidly through Rodrigues's vocals and finding refractions in the layers of pristine production beneath each song's surface. It's a rare find, something this special. --Andrew Bartlett

Customer Reviews:

Amazing.......2007-04-24

AMAZING is the only word that I can use to describe how wonderful Viriginia Rodrigues' voice is. I first heard her in the closing credits in a wonderful movie, Le Chiavi di Casa. This movie is another must. Virginia Rodigues now has a fan for life!

The Question.......2007-02-12

Has anyone considered that maybe she doesn't "want" to swing? I hate to break it to some people out there, but there are other types of music than jazz. I love jazz, but this is a wonderful singer from brazil, not some arrogant jazz diva. She doesn't swing huh? Well she also doesn't yodel, can you imagine that, SHE DOESN'T YODEL? Same problem as her first cd, no yodeling. And there are no fat electronic breaks either. Man, this cd is just no good. Anyways, enough sarcasm. Her voice is amazing, and if you are branching out into world music and want to hear some interesting arrangements and a unique singer, then I recommend this cd. If you want swing go get some Miles Davis. If you just happen to be open enough for non-swing music (imagine that) then this is a good cd. I'm pretty sure Mozart didn't swing either. Is it to his discredit?

Truly Unique Experience.......2007-01-16

I first heard Virginia's voice, although I didn't know who it was, over the closing credits of a phenomenal Italian film called "A Key to His House". Without knowing any better, I thought the person singing was a man, with an extraordinarily buttery tone.

I had to know who it was.

After a trip to IMDB and its message board, I found out the vocalist was Virginia Rodrigues. Thanks to everyone for helping connect the dots! (And you should all see this movie.) The track over the closing credits is "10-11: Deus do Fogo e da Justica".

"Nos" is unique in that Virginia's telling stories -- rich pieces of history. So thanks to the producers for including the lyrics in English. Tops on this side is track #2, "Uma Historia de Ifa," -- achingly beautiful and a poetic tribute to a long-lost civilization.

If you've always been partial to the mezzo-soprano or contralto qualities of the female voice; i.e., tones you can wrap around yourself like a warm blanket, then you'll be in 7th heaven with Virginia's style. And if you're a fan of other unique female voices like Lisa Gerrard and Mary Fahl, you'll want to have Virginia in your collection.

Open yourself and give yourself a treat - TRY IT!.......2006-08-15

There seems to be some kind of misunderstanding with the people who don't like this cd. Of course you can not like it, hm, let's not be obtuse, but all criticisms, or most of them, seem to be directed to what it SHOULD be rather with what it is. I mean, I don't know if it is deeply brazilian - it definately isn't cliche tourist music. But then again, I don't care. It is beautiful, who cares if it is labeled as punk, classic or new age, (and world is such a funny definition created by some gringo - it's like world really is the biggest classification: everything else!) and who cares if it is brazilian, burundian or russian. I love it, and it really made me whisper "she's a goddess..." whilst I had chills all around my body. Look, at least, try her. This is maybe one of the few records in the world I would probably recommend to try at least - that I don't know who can (not) like it.
It's got a great vibe, so enjoy.
Cheers & Love

beautiful beyond compare and classification.......2003-12-02

This is the first Virginia Rodrigues CD I bought (sight unseen so to speak after hearing her voice described on NPR). Now I have all three, but this is my favorite. Her music is hard to classify (or locate regionally), it is truly world music, or more like out of this world music as it seems both out of time and place. (When I first heard it I found myself daydreaming vague old childhood memories of pastoral scenes....)

This is spiritual music in that it is uplifting, simple, pure, sensual but not sexual. Virginia's voice is lovely, broad ranged, rich, warm, soothing. The music fits her sound beautifully. There is no fluff here, no frills or clashing egos. The accompanying strings are emotive without being sappy. The odd (to me at least) Brazilian instruments are a perfect touch and complement to the more classical orchestrated and operatic sound she creates. Often when listening I'm reminded of Sally Oldfield (similar operatic style), but Virginia is more rich, warm and deep.

This is truely sublime music. And achingly beautiful.

Truly a beautiful rendition of extraordinary talent............2005-02-21

When I first purchased this cd, my original intent was for the soundtrack of Star Trek, which has always been a favorite of mine. I was also motivated by the fact that the orchestra performing is the London Philharmonic, which I consider one of the finest in the world. To this day, this cd stays in my player at bedside. When hearing the news that Mr. Goldsmith had passed away last year, I decided to purchase the 6 cd collection in his memory from Fox. This mans talent was truly a rare and extraordinary gift which he shared with us. I have given this cd as a gift several times because I felt I was giving a wonderful, moving, inspiring rendition of the exquisite talent of this man. If you are not familiar with Mr. Goldsmith, give this cd a chance and I believe you will continue pursuing the mood and music of Jerry Goldsmith, who will be missed for decades to come.

Pure Gold from Maestro Goldsmith.......2004-08-04

Some time ago I reviewed Jerry Goldsmith's outstanding score for "Star Trek Nemesis." At that time I remarked that the tones and secondary themes seemed to be almost a farewell to the Enterpise. It is only fitting that Maestro Goldsmith's musicians gave him standing ovations as they finished recording several cuts for that score. Now, of course, that "farewell" is so poignant. A number of years ago, my wife and I attended a concert with the Maestro conducting the Utah Symphony Orchestra in Salt Lake City. The program was essentially the same as we find on this grand album. We stood and gave Maestro Goldsmith a standing ovation, and a loud "Bravo!" then, and wish we could do it again. This is representative collection of the Maestro's work that is well worth having. A fitting tribute to a genius in his field. Nicely produced and packaged. For those of us who grew up with Goldsmith it is hard to say farewell. Bravo and yeia sou!

Goldsmith's Gold.......2004-03-04

Jerry Goldsmith is one of the greatest film composers of all time. He has written so many great scores on so many different themes that he is kind of taken for granted by his fans and listeners. This CD is an excellent introduction to Goldsmith's music and his immense range in musical themes and styles. Some of my favorites like "Islands in the Stream" and "Medecine Man" are missing but on one CD only so much can be represented. Goldsmith always gives us original themes of great originality and emotive power. His music blends well with the movies and he is one of our best narrative music composers. I'm happy that so much of great film scores like "Boys from Brazil," are included on this CD,when Goldsmith takes the Vienese Waltz of happiness and turns it into a Nazi Waltz of evil with strains of Wagner, Hitler's favorite composer, blended seamlessly into the score. "Patton" could have been better represented as it is easily one of Goldsmith's most recognizable scores and a classic. Whether it is action, love themes, horror, Goldsmith was and is always up to the task to create great film scores, most which stand on their own as any great symphonies of sound. Buy this and explore many of his other great scores and many are classics and out of print and this CD will give listeners a taste of what this grand master film composer can do and is still doing. Grand music on any scale. Highly recommended.

money ill spent.......2002-06-24

Many years ago, Sony and John Williams collaborated on an album of Star Wars favorites. I suspect someone at Telarc thought the same magic would work with Jerry Goldsmith and the LSO. Alas.
While the pieces chosen show a good cross-section of Goldsmith's crativity, the execution is seriously lifeless. It is as if the compositions were left to saute' overnight in Symphony Sauce: the performances are plodding and pedestrian. I don't know who convinced Goldsmith to do it this way, but omitting the martial snare roll at the beginning of the Man from U.N.C.L.E. theme, or not adding at least an accordian to the Waltons theme, are just two examples of how Goldsmith's great work has been emasculated by, I suspect, some record exec's insight. If you want to hear these pieces as originally written and performed, you'll have to start searching on other albums. Good hunting, and let us know what you find.

A good example of Goldsmith's range, but..........2002-05-17

...the quality of many performances are lower than they ought to be, which is astonishing in light of the reputation of the London Symphony Orchestra. This notwithstanding, there's enough to justify getting one's hands on this item. For me, the high point of the album is the medly of television themes composed by Goldsmith, which begins with a hellacious musical argument for the revival of *The Man From U.N.C.L.E.* as a theatrical film. (Hell, if they can resuscitate that bletcherous bore *Mission: Impossible* to make not one but two big-budget buckets of bilge, *The Man from U.N.C.L.E.* ought to attract plenty of attention, particularly if it's done with a sense of humor similar to that which informed the old TV show.)

The other problem with this album is the selection of cuts. For example, almost anything could have been better chosen from the film *Rudy* but the highly sedative passage recapitulated here, and the entirely inadequate dose of the theme from *The Wind and the Lion* incorporated in this album comes at the tail of an 18-minute medly of lesser stuff through which the average fan of *The Wind and the Lion* has no wish to sit. We've heard the theme from the first *Star Trek* movie endlessly; why not a variation on the nasty elegence of the Klingon theme from that and subsequent *Star Trek* films? Goldsmith also wrote other incidental music for *The Man from U.N.C.L.E.* -- so why not a re-visit of "The Man from THRUSH" (or the original program music "THRUSH Raid") and suchlike?

*The Film Music of Jerry Goldsmith* is reasonably good, but by no means the best to be had. It whets the appetite, but doesn't satisfy.

Groove Armada has done it again! This series just keeps on getting better, It's really down and up and down, like rollercoaster of musical sounds. When I first heard it I really liked it, and then it grew on me. Just buy it!!!

they deliver, again.......2004-10-04

This duo never lets me down. Among the many nondescript DJs and wannabe trip hop/deep house stylists, these two seem to have a unique savvy for blending beats and choosing timeless tracks which having been flavoured distinctly to the GA.

Different moods on different listenings.......2004-03-19

This could almost be called 'Back to Mine' Volume 2 as it does have a very similar feel to Groove Armada's compilation for that series. However, I find this compilation much more diverse and multi layered. On first listening this disc doesn't have the seamless flow of the 'Back to Mine' set and almost seems to take you through many mood swings instead of settling you into a nice groove like many chill sets do. However, on repeated listenings I find this actually to be the strength of the disc as it successfully manages to mix several moods and several styles.

The boys own version of 'Fly Me To The Moon' starts the set with the cool lounge style associated with Groove Armada but the disc then gradually assumes a more funk laden style with The Memory by Roy Ayers and Grace Jones' Don't Cry It's Only Rhythm being stand outs. The Shuggie Otis version of Stawberry Letter 23 is amazing and with other artists such as Aretha and Al Green it is almost impossible not to succeed.

Overall, a disc that gets better and better with repeated listenings and a disc I find suits many moods whilst still maintaining an overall coherency.

Very Fine for a genre I usaully avoid........2003-07-24

As I said I usaully avoid this type of genre but Groove Armada has given us a very fine cd of good if not great listening quality. Many surprises along the way include Grace Jones,Roy Ayers, Jeru the Damager, Aretha Franklin just to name a few. The usuall house and disco tunes fill out very nicely and the whole cd works for me although I usually don't even listen to many of the "house" and "disco" artist on this cd. Do not fear the music, it's all good.

If you like the "N" word......be my guest.................2003-03-29

No, that's overly harsh. I like this CD. Three stars is my second highest review. Although I don't think it will go on my top shelf, I'm not going to dump it either. Damn me with faint praise you say...... I guess that I bought this CD without really knowing what I was getting.....but it worked out OK. I have a feeling, as I often do, that this CD will grow on me overtime (think about three years :) ). On the plus side, this CD has a jazz club feel to it to the point that you can alomost smell the stale smoke and hear the clink of ice cubes as the bartender pours another drink. There are odd sounds like someone bumping the mike during some songs that adds some reality to the music. However, there are a couple of songs that I could live without (track 15 for one). What happened to letting people know about explicit lyrics?? Track 19......what's this [*]-five minutes of some Sherlock Holmes soundin jackass mumbling under his mustache? But, I guess that's to be expected with 19 songs. Tracks 2,3,9,10, and 11 are real upbeat and best suited for working out (think world aerobics championships). I loved hearing Al Green, Areatha, and the rendition of strawberry 23....those songs are good. Overall, I like the CD but buy it used if you can.

Album Description

Danny Boyle (28 Days Later, Trainspotting) once again reinvents the cinematic experience with a heartwarming story of two little boys, faith, miracles...and lots of money. Starting anew after the death of their mother, 9-year-old Anthony is ever practical, while his 7-year old brother Damian uses imagination, fantasy, and faith to make sense of his confusing world. When a suitcase full of money falls out of the sky at Damien's feet, it sets the boys on the adventure of a lifetime that leads them to realize that true wealth has nothing to do with money. Featuring original score by John Murphy, "TUMBLE AND FALL" by Feeder, "BRAZIL" by S'Express, and the film's signature song "NIRVANA" by El Bosco.

A mantra for love.......2007-05-19

Whole disc it is beutiful, the movie too. But, the song Nirvana is the most beautiful song that a lot of people can hear. Its a kind of mix of apocaliptic premonition with love song. Chorus like it were came from the sky by angels. Really, beautiful song for all kind of liking.

Brilliant!!.......2007-05-12

The soundtrack and the film are both brilliant!! The touching tracks on the soundtrack help you remember what it feels like to be a child. Imagination. That is what is missing from today's society and that is what Millions helps us recapture!!

Worth a million!.......2007-01-04

this is one of the most enchanting, heart-warming, sweet and funny films of all time. And the music score is fabulous!!

tha best.......2007-01-23

Rated as one of my all time best favorite lounge chill brazilian electronica eveeer... it's haunting chill and remote. It's just so cool. The melody's stay in your head. a really great compillation.

Did you hear "One" on CSI?.......2006-12-29

Sometimes you hear the best music from the most unlikely sources--I heard the song "One" from Brazil Remixed on an especially spooky CSI. At first I did not recognize the song as Three Dog Night's "One" is the loneliest number, but when I did, this remix fit the CSI story to a tee. Great musical selection.

My Songs are your songs? Song Swapping Gone Mad!.......2004-04-13

When I first saw this last summer, I was thinking "Man does this look familiar..." It didn't have anything to do with the music, but the cover - I knew I saw it before. And low and behold when I was home I pulled out this massive conglomerate of a 6 disc Decadance chillout compilation titled: "The Ultimate Chillout Album" and saw pretty much the exact same cover... just on a different wall. Seroiusly, have a look. B00006JSHV. Already you know this isn't the most original of releases.

Still, it's not a bad cd. You've got some lounge cuts, some bossa cuts, alternative takes and remakes and general feel good bossa and samba mixed in. Artists include Maya FS, Mo'Horizons, Da lata and many others as they mix and match styles and skills on this semi-mixed compilation. However this cd isn't without fault. I found some of the songs a bit annoying over time ("Fancy" and "One" come to mind) and the Italian bossa Buweyah seems like more of a "Sister Bossa" modeled track than this. And if you have heard "Cafe Samba", which has literally stripped off tracks from this compilation and put them onto that one, this will hardly sound new to you but of course that's at no fault of this compilation's own. Odd, but I know exactly what the previous reviewer meant when he/she said that a song was a bit embarassing as some songs seemed to force the Braziliance with cliche'd sounds and loops.

All in all, I would say this is a solid release but not one of the best I own. There are just so many nu-Brazil cd's out there - this is one I'd say to take a pass on if you're comparing with Brazilectro (usually 2 discs of good tunes) or Glucklich (mixed by Rainer Truby). But if you're looking and deciding between this and Cafe Samba I'd recommend Cafe Samba instead. IMO it has the better all around songs. The Italian Bossa mixes in since they went on and stripped cuts from Pyramide's Cafe Noir series... who of course stripped songs from Irma's "Sister Bossa" series. Talk about song taking gone crazy! So there are a few suggestions if you like this - but just watch the group names/song titles for carry-over before you buy any of them.

silky tunes, lyrics questionable.......2003-08-12

I have quite a collection of songs in portuguese. Although this is Brazil remixed, the songs just don't quite make it. There are some cool songs, like samba numeiro 9 or felicidade, but number one has a great beat, but "one is a lonely number". It's a bit odd to listen to, kinda embarrassing.

Anyway, the tunes are silky, and soothing, but other cds are more effective. Maybe try Cateano Veloso for something real and Bossa Nova from Putumayo.

Customer Reviews:

Thankfully Nick Warren Left This Genre Behind.......2007-03-17

This is Nick Warren's second release for Global Underground. I hate to be the spoiler in a perfect 5 star rating from previous reviewers...but this is by far his worst compilation under this label.

Don't get me wrong, I think Nick Warren is the greatest DJ on the planet. Even for his versatility alone. I just never cared for this phase in his brilliant career that this album falls into...his hard techno sets. From 1998 until 2002, he loved this genre and predominantly mixed tracks like those found on this album. Personally I hate techno and hard techno so I am biased when it comes to compilations that are predominantly from this genre. You may love both these dics if the opposite holds true for you.

It was really difficult to give an album with Nick Warren's name on it 2 stars, but it lacks that special "Warren element" that even his other techno heavy Global Underground releases had (ie. GU011:Budapest, and GU018:Amsterdam). Maybe what I perceive as the "Warren element" is the inclusion of some great progressive trance and progressive house tracks which are completely abscent from Global Underground 008: Brazil.

Disc 1 gets 2/5 stars and Disc 2 get 3/5 stars from me.

Thankfully he ultimately ditches techno by 2003...right around the release of Global Underground 024:Reykjavik. Yeah...that's the stuff.

Here's an even older one..........2006-05-18

This CD was released in 1998!!!! Can you believe it? It's amazing how marvelous this CD sounds today. Buy this CD for Hybrid's Kill City and turn it up REAL LOUD (make sure you have a good subwoofer or you'll blow out your speakers like I did), your hypothalomus will thank you. Sounds a little different than the track on Wide Angle, haven't yet decided which I like better.

Marching powder is excellent. And Psychout is good. And "Ya Yae Ya Yo Yo Yo" (what the???) is, despite the weirdness, an excellent trance track. Most importantly, NO STINKERS, so you can listen all the way through without cringing.

Best GU.......2005-10-23

Its not even worth rating any other GU productions. This is easily the best. Budapest was another great one as well. Warren finds flows naturally. In an industry of 80 billion DJ's, very few can make magic the way this guy can. A natural.

Nick warren never seems to fail.......2004-11-06

Okay, it is almost 2005. it's getting harder to still enjoy trance techno for a lot of techno listeners. people are getting pickyier with the music and want more out of it than the so called " cheese " is providing them with.
This cd here is we'll going older everyday and it's certainly not young. But.... who the hell cares. It's so good. Starts off solid on disc one with a surprizingly not even dated sound. It's packed full of energy, and more than sounding brazilian, it to me sounds like im in India.. But not in a Goa techno kinda way. Only gets better and certainly never lets you down.... gets good all the way towards the end of disc one and instead of boiling down and getting tired, nick brings you tranceillusion... which is packed with energy.. leads you wanting more, and wait there is more, another whole disc. Rock on. alright disc 2 is just as good as disc 1 only to me disc 1 sounds a little less dated and to me it feels more like a feel of what nick warren is about. it's just all based upon opinion really because some poeple like disc 2 better than 1 and vice versa. Disc 2 to me has more of an oakenfold track selection like on tranceport... but doesn't loose nick's way of mixing.. it's really pretty brilliant. But, if you like stuff like digweed than your more than likely gonna want more of disc 1 than two... anyways ( jeeze im just rambling now) if you don't have this in your collection and you are a techno listener than you really are missing out big time. it's in my top 5 GU cds. really, i think you should buy it.

A Classic Trancer With Balls..........2003-09-07

-
This album is dripping with high energy, funk, bass and near flawless mixing. It is by no means for the faint of heart, and not for those who are looking for clubby, cheese-filled tracks. This is pure, unadulterated house trance devoid of anthems and cheese vocals.

CD1 immediately grabs you by the throat and doesn't let go. Each track is packed with energy and has a degree of raw grit to it. Those worth noting are "Marching Powder", "Lose It" (my favourite), "India", "Tequila Flange", and "New Sunset".

CD2 lets the listener breathe a little easier, as it isn't as intense as disc one. "Psychout (Thing)" rocks. "Your Beautiful" and "Kill City" are relatively mellow. "Reality Detached" is a favourite with its quick, heavy drum beats and gritty synths. "Ya Yae Ya Yo Yo Yo", is, as one can draw from its title, weird. O.K., who pulled Café del Mar off the shelf?! Tekara's "Breathe In You" makes up for it, though. Pink Bomb's "Indica" and POB's "Boiler" are two remaining tracks worth noting on this disc.

Solid CD, Some Cool Beats.......2004-05-16

I remember getting this when it came out. At the time, I had already gotten Brazilectro, Boss-A-Troniq's and a few others, so needless to say I was deep in the genre. However this one got lost in the shuffle. There was some carryover in tunes between all of the nu-bossa/nu-brazil compilations and this one did't quite make the cut.

I have been listening to this more, and imagine... I'm really into the cut "Toda Tersafeira" cut, remade by Jazzanova. It wasn't until I picked up Nu Bossa Cafe that I remembered the top reason why I'd picked this up back then, and I fell for the song all over again. There's also a cool remix to Da Lata's Pra Manha which is festive and alive, the Da Lata remix to "Escravos Do Jo" which is pretty cool and spirited. And of course there's Jazzanova's overused "Fedime's Flight". But another great tune on here (IMO) is the club cut "A Volta" by Arsenal. Check out the beat!

For the price, this isn't a bad compilation if you want to hear what was kickin' from 1997-2000. Not every track peaked my interest - I could've done without Mosquito Coast. And some of the mixing wasn't as smooth as it could've been (not really stand alone cuts). But its got a solid vibe, you've got some good tunes and not a break the bank price. If you dig this, check out Brazilectro 2 and III, Boss-A-Troniq 2, Rio Lounge 1&2 and maybe Nova Latino vol. 1. This iscertainly worth it for the remake to "Toda Tersafeira"

Get 'Brazilified!'.......2002-02-09

'Brazilified' is one of the best electronic compilation albums! I find myself coming back to it very often, each time enjoying a fresh music experience. Quango did a great job at putting together a musically diverse album yet with a common Brazilian/Latin electronic sound theme. The 11 songs incorporate a whole spectrum of music genres: electronic bossa nova, fusion jazz, tropical and lounge music and finally (towards the end of the album) an electronic dance music with a Brazilian flavor. Standout tracks:
8. A Volta - Arsenal
10. Berimbau De Ossanha - Easydelics
11. Abra A Boca - Nova Fronteira
6. Pra Manha (P&T Mix) - Da Lata
2. Toda Tersafeira (Jazzanova Rework) - Soul Quality Quartet

Highly recommended.

Quango's back!.......2001-08-14

One in a series of compilations celebrating the return of the Quango label. Despite its past financial woes, Quango always knew what time it was before most of the record-buying public did and the selection on this disc proves it. Concentrating on the Brazilian sounds from their catalog, Brazilified showcases just some of the artists that take those sounds to the dance floor with booty-shaking results.
