Sambadelic

Editorial Reviews

From Rhythm Magazine
Rica Amabis' Sambadelic is in many ways a companion disk to Andrea Marquee's Zumbi. Released by the same label, it features many of the same cutting-edge musicians and has basically the same sound; i.e., frenetic, psychedelic, and funky. Amabis has clearly been influenced by the late Chico Science, one of the pioneers of the still-blossoming mangue beat scene. There's a mix of old and new, featuring compositions by Amabis as well as classics like "Falsa Baiana" (introduced by Gal Costa in the late '60s), "Marcio Leonardo e Telmo," by Brazilian soul legend Tim Maia, as well as a song by the king of Brazilian roots music, Luiz Gonzaga. -Michael Cowan

    1 out of 5 stars deception!.......2002-06-10

    psychedelic and funky?, funky, re-mix, rocked up samba?. The people write this, don't listened the cd. Rica Amabis is a middling average dj punisher the good taste of bossa and samba.

    stunning, dazzling... bad taste.

    5 out of 5 stars Funkadelic!.......2001-08-23

    After a friend from Recife, Brazil sent this cd to me, I spent a week straight just getting into the groove of this cd, which is NOT difficult. From the first lines of the 2nd song which describes what samba is and is not and who can and can not dance it, to the lines of samba "ficando na alma, no coracao do povo brasileiro", I was sucked in. I'd describe this as a funky, re-mix, rocked-up samba.
