“Find The Love” is the latest release from the six member ensemble from the Netherlands from as The Jazz Invaders. Their ten track disc is smoothed out soul jazz layered with warm harmonies and solid horn arrangements layered over Disco rhythms. “Disco Fever” is a soft mid-tempo boogie tune sprinkled with Linda Bloemhard’s sweetened vocals. The title track starts out with a bit of funky fusion flavor before seguing into mellow soul. “Much Rosie”, the only instrumental showcases sweet horn soloing and organ rhythms. Overall this is a pleasant journey to the land of eighties flavored Disco grooves, no doubt you’ll enjoy the ride. – Reg Dancy 06/16 Continue reading

Their new album leaves first a taste of Acid Jazz trend of the nineties sound but as it plays track by track a whole kaleidoscope of fuzzy and fancy sounds and colours appears. 100% funk, jazz funk, boogie even disco, full of Brazilian, Latin Jazz and soul elements… Very well done! – Dj Nova – Planet Radio Greece

Linda’s Tour Report
In the preparation to the tour with Azymuth members Ivan Conti and Alex Malheiros I have to admit I had no idea what they were all about. It was only when my fellow musician friends started to react very enthusiastic and excitedly started singing the themes they knew from Azymuth records I knew i had missed out on something.
