While Riovolt on their first album "Digital Audio Bossa" (which soon became top-seller in Japan) were squeezing samba and bossa nova rhythms through the "funk-jazz-Electrifyer", a secret combination of analog-psycho-acoustic-codification-devices, this very same machine, constantly undergoing alchemistic modifications, was used to produce the follow up album Sambarama, giving continuity to the deep grooves, edgy melodies and jazzy atmospheres Riovolt s charm is all about. Riovolt breaks borders with stylistic originality, in tune with the ongoing latino-hype and at the same time a step ahead of current trends. The album also includes an uplifting cover version of the Jorge Ben classic Zazueira, sung by guest vocalist Lilian Vieira from Zuco 103. http://www.riovolt.de/. ...show less
