"Eumir Deodato is an artist in every sense of the word.

The Grammy Award-winning musician is an arranger, composer, producer and more. Born in Brazil, Deodato has arranged for the likes of Frank Sinatra and Roberta Flack, and had a major influence on some of Kool & The Gang's biggest hits, including Celebration and Ladies Night. He's also a huge character with lots of fascinating stories to tell about his life and career.

In this third edition of Audio Culture, Mixcloud's very own Xanthe Fuller joins Deodato to look back at some of his greatest achievements to date."

In this mix, DJ Tomanek played some tracks which can be connected with Eumir Deodato (because of arrangements, conducting, instrument playing or composing). A laid-back journey of tunes in his "living Brazilian legends" series.
