Juanitos - "100% Good Vibes Music"
Juanitos is an internationally-minded SoulJazz inspired group from Chamébry, France. Juan Naveira & co have been making all kindsa exotic beats since 1991, starting out as garage-punk then taking a turn towards 50's surf with exotic instrumentation. According to their official bio, this was partially inspired by Crypt Records' Jungle Exotica compilation.
Oddio Overplay introduced Juanitos to the FMA with the fantastic 2007 album Exotica. They also have a track on BlocSonic's NetBloc vol.24, and lots more at their website.
Their latest album, Soul Africa, is an irresistable Afrobeat & reggae-leaning organ-ic funk party released earlier this year. It's licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0 France, so these good vibes can be shared worldwide!
