International flair shines through Mulo Francel & Rami Attallah’s Global Players, while Roger Glenn’s My Latin Heart delivers rhythm with soul. Elegant swing and modern energy meet on Snorre Kirk’s What A Day! and Giacomo Smith’s Manouche. Rounding out the list is Shikiori, a richly atmospheric collaboration between Sinne Eeg and Jacob Christoffersen. Buy here distributor-direct or purchase from your favorite music retailer.
