Mecca:83, Buscrates 16-bit Ensemble & DistantStarr are REdefinition: a trio of friends with a long history of musical collaboration.
Influenced by classic brazilian music of the 60's and 70's, Bahia Affair blends elements of bossa percussion with MPC beats and ample Fender Rhodes licks. Sampled elements remain but play a background role in the mix: providing the accents between live horns and guitar solos that give the project an added organic texture..
