Synopsis

Album Description
Jazz or no Jazz? Minimalistic arrangements, 60's Bossa-Nova guitars, electronic sounds. Piano, double bass and percussion. Simple, some times Pop style melodies framed by soundsgames ... Jazz? No - Jazzamor! With this creative concept, Jazzamor was founded in 2001 by Bettina Mischke and Roland Grosch. In 2002 their debut album "Lazy Sunday Afternoon" (BF 39850682) was released. Loungy atmosphere, Bossa Nova with own feelings and melodies. Tracks flow into each other. Music for a ... Lazy Sunday Afternoon. " ... This is the music, I've always been looking for: melodies without being monotonous, relaxing without being boring, rhythmic without being penetrating, modern without being worn out, classic (60's style) without sounding old-fashion, ... " (Amazon Customer Review) Now in Spring 2004, their second album "A Piece Of My Heart" is being released. With this production, Jazzamor played even more with the contrast between electro-sounds and live instruments. Besides 12 self composed tracks, Jazzamor shows the development of their particular sound in the 2 cover versions from Bill Withers "Ain't No Sunshine" and Jamiroquais "Space Cowboy". Besides English and Portugese lyrics, they also have a track in French and German. Jazzamor shows a piece of their heart.

"Absolutely beautiful smooth vocals over jazzy chill out sounds. I'm a big fan of Alpha and Mandalay thus this is a great find. Highly recommended for lovers of chill out sounds.... for those sleepy days!"
Simply amazing

"funny, i've never heard of this group until a few weeks back when i was just doing my random cd buying and if it wasn't for the fact that they had this cd in the bargain bin, i wouldn't have looked twice! but the minute i listened to this album, i was hooked. one of the best to come out with nu bossa, horizontally reclining sounds which is getting hyped up lately. there're no bad tracks in this album but you might want to check out lovin' you, piece of my heart, no evil mind and my favorite, einfach leben. the singer's voice reminds me a little bit of smoke city vocalist though but all the same, it's a great album and a winner all around."
