notes

Infectious rhythms drive the jazz-electronica tracks on ReDuX:RMx VOLUME 1. No samples here - the loops and beats are played live by a collective of young Toronto jazz players. The catchy, original Latin, funk and cool jazz compositions are infused with urban rhythms and electronic elements. Sound bytes in different languages interweave each track, creating a nonstop, cosmopolitan café atmosphere. Think Miles Davis, Chick Corea - the Brazlian sounds of Jobim - these influences surge through these tracks.

The core of ReDuX:RMx is former L.A. based, Columbia Pictures TV music supervisor, Toronto media composer Archangel Menezes and American-Canadian guitarist Eddie Paton, who played on Robert Michaels' Juno award winning Warner album, ALLEGRO, and is currently touring with Billboard world music winner, Johannes Linstead.

ReDuX:RMx VOLUME 1, produced by Juno nominated, L.A.Urban Producer Kenny Moran, features Nelly Furtado's keys man, Joel Joseph, jacksoul's Davide Direnzo on drums and other players from the Toronto jazz and R&B scene.

Perfect for loft-living, coffee sipping, late night city driving, and before or after clubbing, ReDuX: RMx VOLUME 1 is a soundtrack of contemporary jazz for the urban soul!

  • Salsa anyone ?!
    author: Alina

    ..and not as in the delicious mexican dish...but as in dance on the ReDuX's music spiced up with latin rythms ...Love the music, and my favorite is the clever entitled "You ain't the bossa me"!

  • Great tracks to write novels by!
    author: Bev Katz Rosenbaum

    I've written two novels now to these fabulous Redux tracks-the cool, cosmopolitan, hip world music sounds put me in just the right writer-in-a-cafe mood! (Not an easy task, when I write at the back of a cramped kitchen!) More Redux, please! (For future novels!) -Bev Katz Rosenbaum, author of I Was a Teenage Popsicle (Berkley/Penguin, October 2006)

  • Latin Chill
    author: Johannes

    This is great music if you like hip grooves with a touch of Latin guitar...Highly recommended.

  • Soothing Acid Jazz skillfully performed and mastered !
    author: Darrell Yarek

    What an exciting infusion of creative mind Archangel Menezines, and Eddie Paton have accomplished in their debut of Redux: RMX Volume 1.Original Jazz groove beats entwined with mind mellowing electronica and skillfully seasoned in a Latin flavor. Their injection of effect bites and voice clips in Portuguese and Italian aromatically sprinkled throughout, transports the listener into another domain. Redux: RMX Vol. 1 has now become the cd of choice for home, car, and office affording me relaxation and taking the bite off another hectic day.

  • Great listening experience.
    author: P. Damiano - United Kingdom

    An excellent compilation of original jazz-electronica tracks with a latin flavour. Great for relaxing to with a coffee, tea or just on its own. Interspersed samplings of cafe conversation and brief voice tracks in Italian and Portuguese give it that extra texture.

  • Mmm, Tasty!
    author: Annie Bell, Canada

    Rich arrangements, seductive melodies, and rhythms that get under your skin ... I close my eyes and am transported; a moonlit beach, a warm gentle breeze, a special someone ... you fill in the rest!

  • The coolest hippest jazz-electronica we've reviewed this year!
    author: The Village Jazz Scene - Brandon Lee

    This CD is innovative and hip - keep an eye or ear out for this studio group! Redux: RMx Volume 1 is an awesome find. Original tracks - no filler! You can set to repeat and really create a lounge, chill, jazz mood that won't put you to sleep - actually the opposite! A must have for the in-the-know. Can't wait for Volume 2.

  • Relax & Enjoy...
    author: Derek Rennie - Toronto

    A truly enjoyable listening experience! Ideal for a relaxing with an espresso...or hanging out with friends.

  • Let there be Lounge
    author: Max E. Padd

    I can see why they call it cafe,because like coffee it percalates,and it's rich,dark and aromatic.let me have that latin bean juice and pour it in my left ear while I lounge lanquid so i can recline sublime.

  • latin, jazzy, cool, amazing!
    author: Jason Johnston

    Cool mix of beats and grooves with some latin twists and jazz genius. A BIG recommendation for this CD. Buy it right now!

  • author: E.O.M Entertainment

    Their recent release RMx Volume 1 is a attractive collection of chill out/lounge jams that fuses latin, jazz, urban beats and samples with electronica that will send all chill heads into outer space. Don't get me wrong these guys are real musicians to the core because throughout RMx Volume 1 you hear live instruments that gives their style an even more organic vibe.

  • Absolutely atmospheric
    author: Wendy Staub

    Makes me want to throw a candlelit dinner party!

  • A witty, melodius musical seduction.
    author: Brad Chisholm, Los Angeles

    While Redux is certainly ambient and relaxing, it stands above its genre by grabbing your attention with compelling melodies and musical "amuse bouche" ranging from 70's Italian movie score organ riffs to 60's coffee house jazz guitar (Lenny Breau, anyone?) and bits of overheard conversation. All this and a beat too? This is THE album to spin when that special someone finally comes back to your place and you want to be a little more subtle than Barry White -- just make sure to hit the "repeat" button.
