Azymuth - Carnival
Review by Jan Kořínek
Carnival by Azymuth is a delightful album that showcases the Brazilian jazz-funk band's incredible musicianship and creativity. The album features 10 tracks that seamlessly blend together various musical genres, including samba, jazz, funk, and electronica.
The opening track, "Fenix," sets the tone for the album with its energetic percussion, groovy bassline, and catchy melodies. The album then takes the listener on a journey through a variety of moods and styles, from the dreamy and atmospheric "Carnaval Legrand" to the funky and danceable "Papa Samba."
Throughout the album, Azymuth demonstrates their mastery of their instruments, with Ivan Conti's precise drumming, Alex Malheiros' funky basslines, and Jose Roberto Bertrami's virtuosic keyboard playing. The album also features guest appearances from Brazilian musicians such as Marcos Valle and Robertinho Silva, adding even more depth and texture to the music.

About Azymuth
Brazilian group started out in the early 1970s as Grupo Seleção, a cover band. In 1973 they changed the band's name to Azymuth, inspired by a Marcos & Paulo Sérgio Valle song. (They also backed Marcos Valle on his Previsão Do Tempo album released in 1973.) In 1975 they released their first album, initially titled Azimüth. It featured the hit Linha Do Horizonte. In 1976 they scored another minor hit with Melô Da Cuíca ; Jazz Carnival, taken from the 1979 album Light As A Feather, was another hit, and 1980's Dear Limmertz also became a popular staple. The trio moved to the United States in the early 1980s, producing a number of albums that never came out in Brazil, and placing their bets on a mix of samba, funk and jazz that they defined as MPB-jazz (referring to Música Popular Brasileira). The main composer, keyboardist J. R. Bertrami, left the group in 1988, and was replaced by Jota Moraes and Marinho Boffa, but returned in the middle of the following decade, when the group signed with the label Far Out. After Bertrami died in 2012 keyboardist Kiko Continentino joined drummer Ivan "Mamão" Conti and bassist Alex Malheiros to continue the band.

Summary by Jan Kořínek
Comments
Not the ususal earthy & intircate subtle Samba rhythmic Jazz we get from this Brazillian band Azymuth, but a more meatier aggressive heavier bass lined mover & shaker, just ripe for the dancefloor
