Magical Mystery Mix’s 60s Brazilian Samba Jazz Mix
01 November, 2019We’ve got a pretty tantalising mix of early samba jazz and bossa nova for you today courtesy of Dckne and the Magical Mystery Mix crew. Their 60s Brazilian Samba Jazz Mix is a sweet selection of music made in Brazil while bossa nova was blowing up worldwide and before the genres of samba jazz or MPB had really established themselves, featuring many tracks that have since become standards, but here can be heard in different guises.
Here’s Magical Mystery Mix to introduce:
“The aim of the mix is to “unearth” tunes from Brazilian artists that emerged before or during the first period of Bossa Nova. Colourful music which was created during a phase of artistic effervescence that took place earlier in the 1950s in Brazil. A fresh selection of tunes with strong jazz similarities, tinged with Afro-Brazilian rhythms, exotic flavours and joyful percussion.”
