Crossing cultural boundaries with ease, this compilation of vocal-enhanced spicy grooves arrives just in time for the heat waves. It will be the perfect companion to pool parties, sunsets and warm nights. From popular tunes like the energetic, soulful and carnival-tinged Sao Benitez Sunset Mix of Louie Vega and India’s “Love and Happiness” to the exclusive tunes from Africanism and Dahmane El Harrachi, RasaExotica carries a very classy selection of inspirational, danceable and timesless music. Chillmeister PhD Steve Hillage does the remix business to Stereo MC’s “Fever,” and the tempo slows down with Lotus and Nomad’s closers. With loads of percussion, Eastern strings, Spanish guitar and exotic singing, RasaExotica unifies it all with one international soul.
