New York based jazz vocalist Rebecca Angel's new single “Jet Samba” a playfully rhythmic track, produced by and featuring
keyboards of celebrated R&B/jazz producer Jason Miles.
The
release marks the first time that legendary Brazilian composer Marcos
Valle’s 2005 instrumental hit has been recorded as a vocal. Miles heard
the original tune on Pandora and reached out to Valle – best known for
his late 60s million selling classic “Summer Samba”. The composer warmed
immediately to the idea of adding lyrics and turned to renowned
songwriter Ronaldo Bastos to pen the romantic, hopeful lyrics – which
Rebecca enhances with her beautiful voice.
“I
like it a lot,” Valle says of the fresh interpretation. “It sounds like
jazz-samba-pop, very sophisticated and charming –Congrats to Rebecca
and also to Jason and the band for creating such a wonderful version of
the song.”
“Jet
Samba” features Rebecca’s father, contemporary jazz artist Dennis Angel
on flugelhorn, Gottfried Stoger (flute), Christian Ver Halen (guitar),
Adam Dorn (bass), Cyro Baptiste (percussion) and Brian Dunne (drums).
The track was mixed by Jimmy Bralower at Dynotone Record and mastered by
Mike Fossenkemper at Turtle Tone Studios.
“When
Jason approached me with this great song and asked if I would be
interested in recording it, I was immediately excited”. “I love its
energy and quickly embraced the challenge of its complicated rhythms and
complex harmonic structure. I’m really happy with the way it came out. I
put in a lot of hard work to get it just right, and enjoyed every step
of the process. I also love the way the band sounds and am always amazed
at the way Jason’s production takes everything to the next level.”
