Bem Brasil

, out June 3, 2014 on Astralwerks.

Brazilians throw the best parties in the world—it's just a fact. What do you think is going to happen when the biggest soccer event in the universe touches down in Brazil for the 2014 World Cup? Oh, probably just the greatest, most legendary party in history. To gear up for the World Cup Brazil 2014, soccer (sorry, football) and rave legend Fatboy Slim has assembled a crack team of superproducers to join forces on a compilation called Fatboy Slim Presents Bem Brasil, and it's going to be the soundtrack of the season. The album will feature tracks and remixes from D&B legend DJ Fresh, indie disco duo Psychemagik, big room heroes Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, and plenty more—with a few contemporary twists on classic Brazilian samba and folkloric songs. For the younger producers on this comp, getting that call from Norman Cook must have been like getting a call that you're going to the Cup itself. You can check the video for Gregor Salto's re-work of a samba classic, "Samba Do Mundo," which features Saxsymbol and Todorov to give you a taste of what's in store.
