This delicious album from Rio’s finest, finds them in a reflective mood. Covering a range of styles, with jazzy interludes and soothing Bossa Novas giving way to 70s space-age funk and traditional Brazilian sambas.
Partido Novo is Azymuth's fifth album for Far Out and without doubt their best on the label. Still going strong they have added a special chilled touch along with plenty of gorgeous melodies and vocals. Partido Novo translates as broken or off- beat and accordingly tracks feature a dirtier, heavier sound with funky 70s soundtrack vibe as well as the usual samba magic with a mellow wistful summery twist.
