Perhaps more of a soul thing but would work in a balearic set too.

Berlin / Israel / Dubby / Balearic :slight_smile:

Based in Berlin via rural Israel, RAS are comprised of of multi-instrumentalists and producers Dekel Adin, Eden Leshem, and Guy Gefen. They came together as RAS in 2018; a deep appreciation of international sounds that cross common ley lines has resulted in a melting pot of influences. Armed with vintage drum machines, guitars, synths, bongos and a Tascam Portastudio 424 tape machine; they quietly released an eponymous debut album under the radar in early 2019.’

36c here right now and the tunes in this thread are definitely hitting all the right buttons

Picked this up a while back.

Cover version of Gilberto Gil’s Extra by Rosanna & Zelia, released in Finland in 1990. They were doing a few gigs in Finland and went to the studio with local musicians and released this on 7’’ It’s their only vinyl release, Baiao Da Luna on the flip is also good, very balearic MPB track.
