There are hints of something more adventurous now and then, but in truth it's not often the aim of lounge music to be adventurous as much as it is to be simultaneously relaxed and grooving.

The basic format for much of it is electronica meets samba or bossa, but excellently executed. The works are essentially what one would expect as ambient background music in a documentary on modern Rio, but the sound indeed goes past that somewhat. Wonderfully slick, urban Brazilian music fills this CD from start to finish.
