"With Flip-Flops in the Alps" – this is how the debut album of deeLinde & Emiliano Sampaio was presented in the playrooms on Ö1 by Johann Kneihs in 2024, which tells of the musical fusion of two distant music cultures.With "Alpen Bossa," the two continue this journey and expand their mutual cultural appropriation. A dazzling big band constantly dances between alpine terrain and Brazilian beaches. Alpine yodels and mountain songs fuse with choros, hot rhythms, and thirds. Coconuts and kidney beans delight in the tasty pumpkin seed oil. With "AlpenBossa," the Lungau Big Band, together with the DUO, sets new markers in music history and tempts a dual-intercultural sound experience. The compositions and arrangements by Emiliano Sampaio are naturally captivating.
