Background
Samba in Your Casa was the band's first studio album in three years, after 1988's Indigo, and was preceded by their first greatest hits compilation, The Best of Matt Bianco, released in 1990. Unlike their typically jazz and soul early works, Samba in Your Casa was more oriented to Latin pop and dance music, adding rap parts and Spanglish lyrics.
The LP was mainly promoted by singles "Macumba" and a cover version of "What a Fool Believes", which did not get much airplay, although the latter charted in Ireland. "You're the Rhythm" was released as a single in select territories. The first single, "Macumba", besides two different remix versions by Bobby Summerfield, also contained a new remix of "Wap-Bam-Boogie" by Phil Harding and Ian Curnow.[2]
The album did not achieve much commercial success in Europe, instead starting a loyal fan base for the group in Asia, especially Japan, though it was quite well received in Germany.
