I’m feeling pretty happy today because it’s around 15C here in Istanbul and it feels like spring after a strange winter with no snows and barely a few days of rain, phear the summer!.
Here’s a few happy (at least for me) songs to enjoy before I leave for the park. Forro in the Dark’s album is out on Ilhan Ersahin’s Nublu, a spectacular album rooted in Brasil but actually with much more to offer, featuring guests like Miho Hatori and David Byrne. Swedish vocalist Lina Nyberg’s 2006 album Tellus is out on Moserobie, one of the coolest scandinavian jazz labels out there. I always love Lina Nyberg’s playful voice and songs and this album is no different.
Gregsky – Souffle Lunaire
Forro in the Dark – Forrowest
Lina Nyberg – Itaparica
Men-an-Tol – Orange Juice and Vodka
