Album Notes & Community Reviews
Continuing their pioneering exploration of 'Samba Doido' (Crazy Samba), the Brazilian trio expertly blended indigenous rhythms with modern analog synthesizers. 'Telecommunication' features intricate interplay between Jos茅 Roberto Bertrami's Fender Rhodes and the group's signature fluid rhythm section. The recording further established their distinct brand of tropical jazz-funk in the international market, heavily influencing the emerging acid jazz movement.
