Azaxx - The Exotic Delight Paris DJs Mix (MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) 2009-05-19 After the Launch party album issued in 2003 by french label Mobil-Home Recordings, and the Turn Me On/Bahia 7 inch out on Freddy Fresh' Howlin' label the same year, our compatriot Azaxx just released a cool latin/electronics/breaks second album, on Brighton's finest Tru Thoughts Recordings. We wanted to invite him earlier this year but time flies by so fast... Anyway here's a selection of tracks and influences that have inspired the man, melted with a few taken from his album The Exotic Delight Bay.
