VARIOUS: Carnibal Records 003 (2012)

The latin breaks party continues apace with Hammond Classics, Palov, Mr Bird and, of course, Panama Cardoon. A subtler affair than it’s predecessors, and largely mid-tempo there’s still plenty of upright bass, latin piano and shuffling breakbeat rhythms to swing those hips to which the ladies love – as all concerned are well aware. Caribe opts for a sweaty cumbia groove with fat horns, Palov gets a little more energetic on a vocal cut, Mr Bird interlaces latin vocal samples with hip-hop ones and Cardoon reworks the Hugo Blanco-penned Moliendo Café. Shimmy city in other words.
