Ivan Conti - Mamao's Brake/ Ah Que Legal (IG Culture & 22a Remixes)

Azymuth drummer Ivan �Mamao� Conti�s forthcoming self-titled solo project, remixed by West London broken beat pioneer IG Culture for a scorching club monster, alongside three future-funk remixes from 22a records family Tenderlonious, Reginald Omas Mamode IV and Jeen Bassa. Ivan �Mamao� Conti is one of the greatest drummers on earth. A true rhythmic innovator, he is Brazil�s answer to Tony Allen, Steve Gadd, and Bernard Purdie (no small claim considering the country�s famed samba connection). Known by most as one third of Azymuth, his career spans far beyond with over half a century�s worth for recordings with the likes of Milton Nascimento, Eumir Deodato, Marcos Valle, Hyldon, Gal Costa and Jorge Ben. More recently Mamao recorded an album with hip-hop royalty Madlib under the shared moniker �Jackson Conti�.Now aged seventy, Mamao�s work ethic is as strong as ever. In anticipation of a new Ivan Conti solo album set for release in 2017, Far Out Recordings have commissioned a series of remixes to be spread across two separate 12�s. The first is a strictly London affair, with a fiery broken-boogie club monster from West London pioneer IG Culture, joined by the signature future-funk of 22a Records family Tenderlonious, Reginald Omas Mamode IV and Jeen Bassa. The second 12� will host remixes from Max Graef, Glenn Astro and Contours.
