Marley's reggae themes now performed by sweet ladies voices over Bossa Nova electro-beats!
Questionable concept, you may think? But at least this record already gone platinum in Latin america!

After the monumental success of "Bossa n'Stones" (an album that has revolutionized the electronic music market) comes the next Bossa flavour, this time with the repertoire of the late great Bob Marley. The combination of lyrics written by one of the most passionate and pacifist songwriters of our time along with the elegant arrangements of Bossa nova and the futuristic spirit of electronic music are a natural mix. "Bossa n' Marley" includes hymns for universal brotherhood and songs of revolt that take on new significance with a sound that fits snuggly between the tradition of bossa nova and the innovation of chill out. Like its predecessor, "Bossa n' Marley" is an album that delineates an exciting trend in music.
