Taken from their third LP Stranded, released in 1973, "Amazona" is a remarkable bit of art funk propelled by Phil Manzanera's amazing guitar work. The original version is short but complex, featuring a classic Manzanera solo that soars to some pretty wild places, leaving the funky verses the song opens with far behind.
For this edit I really wanted to emphasize the groove, so I dropped the guitar solo and bridge entirely (sorry Phil!) while looping the fantastic groove that underpins the verses. By no means a substitute for the original, just an alternate edit for that daring dance floor.
A dear friend of mine always wanted me to do a mix of "Amazona," but for a long time I didn't have any way to effectively pull the original track apart a bit in order to rearrange it. I'm finally able to do a bit of that, and this mix is for her.
