Recorded in Los Angeles as a tribute to the late pioneering Cuban American DJ Emilio Vandenedes, the Caravana Cubana crew invites comparisons with Ry Cooder's Buena Vista Social Club franchise insofar as it brings together such Cuban musical veterans as pianist Jesus "Chucho" Valdés and 83-year-old singer Pio Leyva with young upstarts like trombonist Jimmy Bosch and conguero Miguel Anga Diaz. But it's a more lively project than the suavely dignified BVSC records thanks mainly to a ferocious percussion section that maintains a sizzling flame under material ranging from traditional Santeria ceremonial music to the head-spinning drumming of "Una Rumba con Dos Tres" to a handful of jazzier jams kicked off by former members of Dizzy Gillespie's legendary 1940s Latin jazz band. --Richard Gehr
Product Description
A joyous reunion of Cuba's best known musicians with their friends in the United States. Jesus "Chucho" Valdes, Bamboleo, Miguel Anga Diaz, Orlando "Maraca" Valle, and the 83 year-old Pio Leiva join with LA-based Jose Caridad "Perico" Hernandez (one of Cuba' s greatest musicians according to Chucho Valdes), Lazaro Galarraga, Carlos Del Puerto, Jr., Francisco Aguabella, and others. An added bonus is the presence of Raul Travieso Rodriguez, brother of the Cuban music legend, Arsenio Rodriguez. This is Raul's first recording since his brother's death in the early 1970's. These are original recordings throughout the summer of 1998.

predawn hangout, late night rendezvous.......2003-11-25
The late night/chillout CD to finish off a night of clubbin'.......2002-02-07
The first CD of this third volumn has so many tracks that stand-out as real gems like "Ncameu", a very soulful, deep house tune. "Equitorial" is also a soothing track as well, but with a more Latin, tribal beat. One of my favorites is the "The Ride" which is definitely deep house, but on the progressive/trance side. And King Britt's "Scuba" is definitely not to be missed. But, my absolute favorite on CD 1 is "Faith", a very deep, dark, soulful track that lurks around with a very meaningful spoken refrain. After listening to this track, you will definitely believe that "Faith is your best friend." And the Latin-infected "Feel What You Know" will give you a little invigoration before coming back down.
The second CD is deeper and slower than the first. It is obvious that there is a progression going on here. As the CD moves, the tracks become darker and more mellow. The best track on CD 2 is Blue Six's "Music and Wine". This is definitely one of the best deep house track ever. It has an excellent groove that certainly helps you relax. And probably many clubbers and househeads can probably relate to the track's chorus. Then comes "Singing Da Blues" which reminds me of Billie Holiday. The track is steady, haunting, almost hypnotic and the acoustic guitar adds the perfect touch. Other favorites are "Float", "Going Away", and "From Nowhere with Love."
Overall, this is a fantastic CD. Farley and Heller really did an excellent job choosing, then mixing the tracks together. If you can get your hands on any of the Ministry of Sound's "Late Night Sessions" compilations, you will not be disappointed. This Farley and Heller mix is probably my favorite, but all of them are excellent. These CDs have the quality and skill that are lacking on the MoS' current "Chill-Out" Sessions series.

Product Description
Born in Memphis, TN, USA, Kimani lived his early years in various parts of the southern U.S. before settling in Miami, FL. While learning to play musical instruments (piano, bass, saxophone), he also indulged in another passion: buying vinly records. After attending Howard University in Washington, DC., he put down roots in DC and, along the way, befriended and mingled with a number of the Washington, DC/Baltimore, MD area's talented house and downtempo artists/DJs. 12 inch record releases soon followed. Well received Kimani records include 12 inch EPs on Strictly Rhythm, i! Recordings, Groove On, K2 Recordings, Kumba Records, and Soul Boy Records. A full length CD, Afro Kozmik Soul, was released in 1999 on Step Ahead Records and saw the licensing of one of it's songs (Kozmik Listening 101) for The Spirit of the Street -The Very Best of Inner City Cool Part II compilation CD on London's JazzFM label. Additional work includes his downtempo/r&b production of "Whenever" on Jody Watley's Midnight Lounge album (joining the company of King Britt, Masters at Work, Ron Trent, and Dave Warrin.) His work with Jody Watley also includes a house dub version of Whenever that was released in 12 inch format on the Peace Bisquit label.Jazz Music:
