REVIEW BY TRAUSTI JÚLÍUSSON - FRÉTTABLADID NEWSPAPER - 01/03/2013
Soft and relaxing Brazilian Jazz
Jussanam - Rio / Reykjavik
"...The music on Rio / Reykjavik is soft and relaxing latin-jazz and Bossa Nova. The musicians are not of little value;Ásgeir Ásgeirsson, Birgir Bragason,Matthías Hemstock, Haukur Gröndal, Agnar Már Magnússon and Cheick Bangoura.
The songs are all in this soft style, but still there are songs with some variety.Some are in traditional Brazilian jazz style, while others, like the great "O Telefonema" carried out lounge music. Jussanam is a cool song Lady. Her voice and singing style suit this music perfectly.Its nice to hear her singing in Icelandic Gettu hver hún er. The arrangements of þú komst við hjartað í mér is also quite good, and the song sounds good in Portuguese.
Overall, this is a fine album with Jussanam... the album is very well done and flows well throughout."
