‘Fatboy Slim presents Bem Brasil’ – the only album based on authentic Brazilian music!

·        Album features brand new tracks and remixes by DJ Fresh, Gregor Salto, Psychemagik, Eats Everything, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Claude Von Stroke, Joey Negro

With football’s mega event all set to be held in Brasil-the land of joy, Famous DJ and rapper, Fatboy Slim comes out with an all exciting Brazilian compilation ‘BEM BRASIL’(roughly translated as ‘Very Brasil’), which is touted to become  the hottest music adding to the football fever!

The fantastic album will bring in the Brasilian vibe, celebrating the spirit and culture of the wonderful destination. Fatboy Slim has delivered a curated collection of music encapsulating the soundtrack to this year's biggest football event which will be held country .  Some of the tracks are set around samples of classic Brasilian tracks, notably Felguk's inspired re work of Jorge Ben Jor's "Taj Mahal" and DJ Fresh's take on the Sergio Mendes anthem "Magdalena" . Others take inspiration from Brasilian music with brand new tracks from Carl Cox, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Gregor Salto and Joey Negro's re-imagining of Airto Moreira classic "Celebration Suite"
In parallel to the tournament, world renowned players from across the globe, congregate to express their skill, inspired by the magnificent back drop of Brasil, its people and its celebrated culture. The players in this case are a host of Fatboy's producer friends from the world of electronic music paying tribute to the incredible flair for music and dancing Brasil has gifted the world. 

Speaking on his compilation, Fatboy Slim said “Given my love of Brasilian music, parties and football it is no surprise that with World Cup happening this year I want to share that love by providing a soundtrack for the summer, based on Brasilian music”  

Commenting on the release, Sunil D'Sa. Vice President - Marketing. Universal Music India said “Standing out from the clutter, this is an album that’s curated by world renowned DJ / Producer Norman Cook aka Fatboy Slim that’s inspired by pure Brazilian sounds! Unlike most `football’ albums, this one’s a brilliant collection that exemplifies the vibrant culture of Brazil and is a must for every music fan. The ideal album this football season to keep the parties going well after the final whistle has been blown. Over 2 hours of dance music on a 2 CD set, at an attractive price point of a single CD, this is one album that brings home the carnival as you enjoy the games with friends and family!”.
Fatboy Slim is known the world over for his unique brand of 'Party Acid House', something he advocates through the medium of DJing and of course the music he makes. His track "Eat, Sleep, Rave, Repeat" was not only a worldwide hit last year but also became a lifestyle mantra for the hugely abundant new generation of 'Ravers' who can be seen hash-tagging and shuffling their way across dance floors and festival fields everywhere.Recording under the alias Fatboy Slim, British DJ/producer Norman Cook was one of the major pioneers of big beat; he ranking second to the Chemical Brothers in terms of breaking the genre in the States. Cook samples from a wide range of music—house, funk, even rock—to create electronic music specifically designed for dancing
Sub-plotting Fatboy's relentless party mission are two very clear passions… Football and Brasil! Historically Music and Football don't mix too well but Fatboy has repeatedly denied such logic.His special relationship with the tournament started when he had the bright idea to play gigs in Japan and South Korea in the same cities as the England games, giving the England fans and locals something to do and allowing himself and his crew to go to the matches. Based on the success of this formula he repeated it at Euro 2004 in Portugal and again with great success in South Africa, 2010.
Four years on and he finds Football converging with his biggest love affair… Brasil!
With only just a few days before the first ball meets boot in Brasil, Fatboy and his compatriots are here to get the carnival started early.

Sony PIX - No.1 in prime time and loving it…
