Hey all, I'm trying to find a style of music and not having much luck with any of it so wondering if people could help me out in regards to genre/artists. I love Ahlambra and Lychee Lounge kinda music. Upbeat funky stuff with lots of trumpets and bongos. The closest I've come is probably acid jazz but its still not quite what I'm looking for. Any help would be much appreciated!!

Also check the nu yorica comps on soul jazz for an easily obtainable and hugely excellent collection of this sound

Fania as in the NY salsa label? It may be some funky s--- but I am not sure it is what our friend is after.

Legal-Affairs your right, Fania stuff is great but not quite what I'm looking for. If anyone has the "02 Dance nation" cd then listen to tracks 10 and 12, especially 12. I dont have the cd case so I've no idea who they are by. The suggestions are much appreciated guys, keep it up:)

Track 10 = Bob Sinclar
Track 12 = Royksopp (Jakatta remix)


As cosmic_arsedog said, go to the house forum.
