Our Take
IVAN MAMAO CONTI's latest offering, "Poison Fruit", is a deliciously twisted concoction that is sure to leave your taste buds tingling. Conti, best known as the powerhouse drummer for the legendary Brazilian jazz-funk group Azymuth, steps into the spotlight with his solo project and proves that he is a force to be reckoned with.
The album is a sonic feast, blending elements of jazz, funk, and electronica to create a sound that is uniquely Conti's own. From the funky grooves of "Encontro" to the dreamy, atmospheric tones of "Que Legal", each track on "Poison Fruit" is a tantalizing treat for the ears.
Conti's expert drumming is front and centre throughout the album, driving each song forward with infectious energy and precision. His skillful use of percussion adds depth and complexity to the music, creating a rich tapestry of sound that is both engaging and addictive.
But it's not just Conti's drumming that shines on "Poison Fruit". The album features a host of talented musicians who each bring their own unique flavour to the mix. Whether it's the smooth vocals of Thalma de Freitas on "Pont du Gard" or the funky basslines of Alex Malheiros on "Ivete", each contributor adds a layer of depth and texture to the music.
In conclusion, "Poison Fruit" is a must-listen for any music lover looking to expand their sonic horizons. With its infectious grooves, lush production, and stellar musicianship, this album is a true gem that deserves to be savoured. So go ahead, take a bite. You won't be disappointed.
