This is the kind of release that doesn't date and doesn't fit into any one genre. It takes you on a ride, from track 1, a slammin pice of tech-house, through to the title track "Sambanova" - which can only be the best deep house track produced in Australia, there is just variety and creativity in overdrive.
If you take a jazzy flavour, add a touch of electro, lots of phat beats and various instrumentals - you are geeting close to the feel.
Often people try to categorise music - fact is, put on Sambanova and people will ask you, "what IS this?" and the only appropriate answer will be "PNAU!".
