On “Tambor De Cura”, producer Daniel David (The Pendletons) and Bay Area staples Jazz Mafia team up with Rio De Janeiro artist Guinu to cook up a genre defying dancefloor hitter that blends dirty analog Brazilian funk, sci-fi synth sounds and raw horn lines with an unstoppable bass hook. Midway, the song transitions into a Samba break with a beautiful trumpet solo, while seamlessly returning to its infectious house tempo. Guinu’s passionate vocals highlight the healing power of the music. on the flip side, Daniel once again teams up with Jazz Mafia to bring a rich up-tempo offering. Building off of a hypnotic jazzy house piano and tapestry of congas and live percussion, Daniel soulfully paints a picture of connecting to spirit through one’s inner world. Jazz Mafia’s driving horns build throughout, propelling the track, with relief by an energetic drum breakdown and conga solo. Daniel David (fka Trailer Limon) is a Bay Area born and raised multi-instrumentalist producer and singer. Currently based in Dallas, TX, Daniel is one half of San Francisco’s boogie funk outfit The Pendletons, which he heads up with musical partner E Da Boss. Growing up around a diverse palate of music, Daniel connected strongly to mid-eighties rap and freestyle music, while also being enthralled with the rock and jazz fusion music from his father’s record collection. “As a kid I would be super inspired by music like Funky Little Beat by Connie, and then I would hang out with my dad and he would be playing Shuggie Otis and Chick Corea. I feel like my music today is me still trying to meld elements of the 80’s dance and rap stuff I heard on the radio with the organic fusion and funky stuff my dad played me, it was such a formative period. credits released October 20, 2023
