Action Re-Action Mixtape

I made a mix that looks something like this for a friend, and decided to share it. Mostly jazzy, give it a go. The Quarteto Novo song is one of my favorites of all time, it’s delightful and full of wonderful harmony, and Gismonti’s piano is unbelievable — I know most folks follow him for his guitar work, but his piano works are so fucking gorgeous.

You mean eccentric?

No, mostly esoteric. With a dash of obscure.
