A masterpiece of 90s club jazz that combines live performance and Brazilian music
A work by a Japanese club jazz unit, blending Brazilian and Latin elements.
More is an album by Balanço, a unit that emerged from the Japanese club jazz scene in the late 1990s. Based on live jazz, the band fuses elements of Brazilian music like bossa nova and samba, reconstructing them with a modern club beat. Tracks like "More," "Montuno," and "Everything Bout You" combine improvisation with a sense of groove. The album resonates with acid jazz and lounge culture, portraying a sophisticated urban mood.
