Too much snow and not enough samba? Check out these breakbeats 12" compilations from a few months ago. Aside from German breakbeats unit Big M are tracks by Japan's Shiho Fujisawa, V-Neck Afternoon, Snob Doggs and Monsieur Mieurax.
"Summer Break EP" has a remix by V-Neck Afternoon of a big band version of "I Want You Back" with a samba feel. Snobb Dogs loops a German pop hit song into a crazy breakbeats cocktail lounge track. Monsieur Mieurax offers a mix-up of Serge Gainsbourg's "Sea, Sex and Sun" with Quincy Jones' "Soul Bossa Nova", into a relaxed breakbeats track.
On "Summer Samba!", German mash-up unit Big M blends a Marcos Valle acapella duet with then-wife Anamaria, "Crickets Sing For Anamaria" onto some samba breakbeats. Groovy Sauce fame Shiho Fujisawa gives us a happy club-mambo-samba track heavy on percussions and "mambo" shouts.
