Far Out Recordings re-release the seminal debut album from Azymuth. Having never seen a vinyl release outside of Brazil, Far Out have given 'Azimuth' the LP gatefold heavyweight vinyl treatment. The album contains some of the band's most incendiary tracks and is quite simply a milestone album in Brazilian music. Azymuth - Jose Roberto Bertrami, Ivan Conti, and Alex Malheiros & Ariovaldo -formed in the late 60s just as Os Mutantes released their debut record. Whilst Mutantes were honing a psychedelic 'Amazonian' version of western pop music, Azymuth were creating a futuristic, electric interpretation of US Jazz - also driven by the same rootsy Brazilian 'swing' that Mutantes had harnessed. The original line up of Azymuth consisted of José Roberto Bertrami on keyboards and synths, Alex Malheiros on bass, Ivan Conti (aka Mamão) on drums and timbalas, plus Ariovaldo Contesini on percussion. Bertrami was the drive behindAzymuth's sound - a control freak and musical genius obsessed with the latest technology who wanted to use it to push the boundaries of music in a way that no one else in Brazil had done. His use of keyboards has drawn comparisons between Azymuth's work and Herbie Hancock's early 70s output, yet with it's Brazilian swing Azymuth's electric jazz sound is unmistakably their own. Conti is an impulsive and an incredibly energetic drummer, and the real hardcore Carioca of the trio. Alex Malheiros, who learned his trade playing with the master of Brazilian swing, Ed Lincoln. Alex is respected in Brazil as one of the original groove masters. Bertrami rose to fame as an arranger in the mid-60s and by the late 60s he was arranging for the queen of Brazilian music, Elis Regina. This pushed him into the major league and by the early 1970s he was arranging for the burgeoning TV novella scene. When he was not working, Bertrami made trips to New York to buy the latest keyboards and synths, ensuring he had the most up to date range of keyboards in Brazil. His work in TV Novellas meant Bertrami knew most of the A&R people in the Brazilian music industry, yet when he shipped the demos that became the core of this album round to them in 1973, they didn't share his vision - one label even going as far as to say that the music was 'wrong'. Released in summer 1975, the album was a minor commercial success selling 200,000 copies. Opening track 'Linha do Horizonte' - a sublime piece of melancholic electronic saudade where deep cinematic synths melt into gently strummed acoustic jazz guitar - was chosen for a TV Novella and went on to sellhalf a million, propelling Azymuth onto the Brazilian music scene. The rest of the album doesn't disappoint - track 2, 'Melô dos dois bicudos', sees Azymuth plugging them into the Brazilian national grid for a slice of electrified psyched out samba funk with crashing military drums, shrieking sirens and psych synths. Track 3 'Brazil' is a lolloping bass led groover with Bertrami's melody giving the track a charming, innocent naivety, and track 5 'Caça a Raposa' is a boogie jazz funk groover with Bertrami adding a Flora Purim style vocal melody. Azymuth went on to become one of the best-selling jazz artists of the 80s with their future albums for Milestones, unquestionably the biggest jazz label of that decade. 'Azimuth' is the album that kick started it all for them, the record that was the blue print and definition of their 'samba doido / crazy samba' sound.

Worked like it was supposed to!
Scent: Coconut, Banana, Watermelon, Size: 0.15 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Each flavor has a great smell and flavor, goes on smooth and makes my lips soft! I trust this brand to have the SPF ro protect my lips. I bought this to use while in Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 for 10 days and didnt get burnt. I gave it a 4 star rating because it gives me a funny aftertaste in my mouth. My husband didn't experience this so maybe its just me. Regardless, it did what it was supposed to do!

My new-found favorite!
Scent: Pineapple, Size: 0.15 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I wear lip balm daily and reapply multiple times in a day. This is one of the first times trying this brand, but this is now one of my favorite lip balms! I love the “flavor” of the pineapple as it’s not super synthetic or chemical tasting. And the texture of the balm when I put it on my lips is exceptional! It’s not sticky and glides on really nicely. It’s got a more silky texture than most lip balms but doesn’t give a glossy look like you’d expect like products that give the same feeling. This will definitely be my go-to moving forward.
