La Putumayo World Music è una etichetta discografica statunitense specializzata nel settore della world music.
Fondata nel 1993, ha sede a New York, e fa parte del gruppo Putumayo fondato da Dan Storper nel 1975. Storper ha basato la propria filosofia d'impresa sull'idea di associare il marchio "Putumayo" a uno "stile di vita" caratterizzato dall'interesse per la cultura e l'arte etnica e l'amore per i viaggi.
Coerentemente, la Putumayo World Music ha anche alcune connotazioni proprie del commercio solidale; in particolare, finanzia progetti di sostegno per le comunità a cui appartengono gli artisti che produce.
Negli Stati Uniti, i prodotti Putumayo vengono venduti nei comuni negozi di dischi e in oltre 3500 punti vendita al dettaglio di proprietà del gruppo.
L'etichetta discografica seleziona soprattutto musica etnica orecchiabile, secondo il motto guaranteed to make you feel good! ("è garantito che ti farà sentire bene!").
Le produzioni sono soprattutto raccolte tematiche per genere musicale o area geografica, più raramente monografie su specifici autori; fra queste ultime si possono citare raccolte di brani di Dougie MacLean, Laura Love, Touré Kunda, Dalom Kids, Johnny Clegg, Ricardo Lemvo, Sam Mangwana, Habib Koité, Oliver Mtukudzi, Miriam Makeba, Chico César, Rita Ribeiro, Mariana Montalvo e Kermit Ruffins.
A mixture of Afro-Cuban rhythms and jazz style come together on Latin Jazz, a lively collection of songs by masters of the genre.
The artists featured on Latin Jazz represent an honored cast of musicians ranging from early pioneers of the genre to those who have helped it remain a viable force for more than 60 years. Machito, a contemporary of Dizzy Gillespie and Duke Ellington, was a pioneering bandleader who helped deepen the bond between Afro-Cuban music and American jazz. His classic track "Congo Mulence" opens the album and features fellow jazz legend Cannonball Adderley. Other legendary figures on the album include Tito Puente, whose mastery of the timbales combined with old-fashioned showmanship kept his music fresh and relevant over the years, and Eddie Palmieri, whose piano techniques put him in the same league as jazz legends Thelonious Monk and McCoy Tyner. He teams here with Brian Lynch on "Guajira Dubois," a game of musical tag between Palmieri's piano and Lynch's trumpet.
The driving rhythm behind most Latin jazz comes from its powerful percussion, and Latin Jazz showcases some of the finest in this field. Master conguero (congo player) Poncho Sanchez leads one of the most popular Latin jazz groups in the world. His seasoned ensemble contribute the cool energy of "El Sabroson", while Ray Barretto covers the classic "Summertime." Considered the "godfather of Latin jazz," Barretto was the first Latino to have a Latin hit on the American Billboard Charts.
Other luminaries on the album include Hilton Ruiz, a former child prodigy who appeared at Carnegie Hall at the age of 8, Chocolate Armenteros, the legendary Cuban trumpet player, and Manny Oquendo & Libre, who represent a multigenerational dynasty of Latin music. Icelandic double-bassist Tómas R. Einarsson, and New York icon Chico Alvarez round out the collection.
