I was more than impressed with the original album version of “Move Love” when i first heard it. However, Ahmed Sirour’s entry to the Robert Glasper Remix competition is one serious piece of work, giving the track his magic touch with an infectious Bossa/Soul groove! The competition was run to promote the upcoming Robert Glasper album, Black Radio which is due via Blue Note Records Feb 27th. Ahmed wrote that this is his first time attempting Bossa Nova and luckily for us he finished the track just in time for the deadline while on vacation in Brasil. Before you head over to pick up the remix, don’t forget this is a free download and a gift, so show some support and give him your vote for the competition HERE
