 (3 Customer Reviews)
Conjuring memories of '90s disco dilettantes Deee-Lite in the alluring "Sirenes de la Fete," the Girls' unapologetically kitsch approach is a feast of smart, trippy, exotic electronica. Sciubba is obviously no stranger to the work of '60s French chanteuse Francois Hardy, continually evoking the Gallic songstress in her faux-naive vocal style. Within the reggae rhythms of "Pussy," the group's hymn to sex and drugs, the Girls mine a rich vein of Eurotrashy, elastic beats, rounding out a wonderfully fun, decadent album.
In their irresistibly stylish self-titled debut, New York electro-pop quartet Brazilian Girls marries sexy, breathy French and English vocals with urban beats and a hip, sophisticated downtown sensibility. Neither Brazilian nor, with the exception of their sensual vocalist Sabina Sciubba, female, the band has a beguiling way with sinuous rhythms, dubby bass, and lounge-influenced arrangements. Sciubba's slyly insinuating lyrics nestle like a kitten into psychedelic swirls of keyboards and synth bleeps, particularly on "Don't Stop," which is packed with influences ranging from 1970s disco to Indian film music.
Brazilian Girls: Sabina Sciubba (vocals); Didi Gutman (keyboards); Jesse Murphy (bass instrument); Aaron Johnston (drums).
Rolling Stone (No. 967, p.81) - 3 stars out of 5 - "[T]he Girls refuse to groove in any one genre for too long, and their mix-and-match deep-dub aesthetics are so finessed that they leave their scent on every musical landscape they visit..."
Entertainment Weekly (No. 804/805, p.133) - "[A] sensual swirl of dub, bossa nova grooves, booty-bumpin' house beats, down-and-dirty trip-hop, and even quaint Parisian cafe songs..." - Grade: B
Vibe (p.142) - "Globetrotting never sounded so lucid." Brazilian Girls Music Review Average Rating: (4.3 out of 5 stars)   Love it!
I decided to get this cd after watching a talkshow that featured this group singing "Lazy Lover"! I was hooked soon after I heard this song and went searching for their cd. Normally if I base a cd purchase off of one song, I end up not liking much more on the cd, BUT this cd I loved all of the songs! I was so happy with my purchase! And I definitley want to hear more from them! If you like Bjork, Portishead, Olive and Jem, I think you would love the Brazilian Girls!! I give them 2 thumbs way up!

 Smooth, Sexy, Nuveau....
I had never heard of the Brazilian Girls before and this past Saturday they performed at Fashion Cares which is a huge fashion show and music spectacular. The Brazilian Girls happen to be one of the performing bands. I was captivated by the lead singer. Her presence on stage was so entracing. Her voice unique. I knew I had to go and get the album immediately. I did. Oh and am I glad I did.
The album ranges from sexy trip hop with smooth lush electronic sounds and sexy yet humorous vocals to songs I would expect to hear while sitting in a cafe on a paris street. The album is fun, catchy and well produced. This is some high calibre production. I really hope they come out with another album.
The lead singer sounds like a cross between Annie Lennox and Bjork...Very interesting voice.

Undeniably cool
Musically, Brazilian Girls seem like a combination of trip-hop, reggae, lounge and a million types of world music that I don't even know. There are lyrics in a few different languages on this record. If you really want to describe them though, think about some really exclusive club where the most attractive people hang out...this is what's playing when you walk in. The album's content is sexy and sensual but with a good sense of humor about it. The whole thing has a very relaxed and fun vibe. The singer's voice is very breathy and beautiful and full of attitude. The bass is prominent and sounds great rattling the floor of my apartment. This band is really a cut above anything I've heard in awhile, I say this album is a must.

Purchase Brazilian Girls CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Raekwon Only Built 4 Cuban Linx... CD (1995)
Brazilian Girls album
 $8.99   
The Wu-Tang saga continues. Raekwon "The Chef" is already an irreplacable part of rap music's largest breed, the Wu-Tang Clan, but his debut proves him also capable of standing on his own two feet. On ONLY BUILT 4 CUBAN LINX..., Raekwon's street-tough lyrics spotlight the roughness of his everyday life and, combined with short story interludes, shape the plot for this gangster movie of an album.
The topics on CUBAN LINX are all Chef-centered braggadocio, and the beats constantly reflect the hip-hop underground. Raekwon defines the politics of the rap game on "Incarcerated Scarfaces," and invites any non-believers to test his skills. Joining Raekwon on just about every cut, fellow ...

I hadn\'t even officially released \"A Tribute to Love\" when I started working on my next solo album--\"What Color Is Your Dragon? Folk Music with Delusions of Grandeur\".The album started when I realized I have a LOT of songs recorded that are not yet available on full-length albums. I listened to many of them and realized most were filk songs.So I decided that would be the main focus of this album. I would compile a list of songs on a variety of Sci Fi/fantasy genres including: Lord of the Rings, Bugs Bunny, Firefly, Star Wars, Dr. Who, and Harry Potter. Added to that would be a few songs I wrote a long, long time ago (not necessarily in a galaxy far away) and a few new songs exploring new musical genres (blues, in particular).The result is my latest album available in August 2008--What Color Is Your Dragon?. The album features 17 tracks of fun music that one fan compared to the Brobdingnagian Bards\' chart-topping album, \"Brobdingnagian Fairy Tales\".That is kind of appropriate because the first song on the album, \"Don\'t Go Drinking With Hobbits\" was inspired by real-life event that happened several years ago at DragonCon when I went out ...
