Paris' Latin house duo and force behind Ya Basta! Records, the Boyz
From Brazil, aka Philippe Cohen and Christophe Muller, have built
something of a buzz around their first four EP releases.
Showing the way on the increasingly popular trick of blending Bahia
carnival beats with contemporary production qualities and dance
floor sensibilities, their singles have been spun on the decks of
in-the-know luminaries such as Francois K, UFO, Jazzanova, Rainer
Truby and Mr Scruff.
Their debut album is as rich and accessible as the singles have
been. The tracks here take Latin house as the starting base and
then meander over the gamut of dance music, fusing hip hop breaks
into bossa beats and even allowing Latin music of the puffy
sleeved, maraca shaking variety to do a little turn.
The most surprising offering comes at the end of CD2, when we're
taken into a mutant opera house and treated to a few arias being
shafted by awesomely dramatic bottom end trickery. From here we
build into a forlorn desert scene over looking a Mexican hacienda
as Clint Eastwood and Charles Bronson disappear over opposite
horizons. And then, just as you've got used to the idea the album
has transformed into a spaghetti western, those Latin beats start
to role in again.
The block party begins on CD2, with percussion breaking into funked
up wah slabs of deep house spiked by clipped conga rolls and acidic
bass lines. Finally the package rides out on claming coastal
samples. --dotmusic.com
