But her songs about love and lush life are exactly the sort of feel-good music one looks for when checking out the Latin jazz section of the iPod. This expanded release comes with additional remixes from London's Phil Asher and Zagreb's hottest house duo, Eddy & Dus, both of whom add some additional low-end punch for the dancefloor while allowing the live vibe to swing free.
