Summer 2001: On the Nuremberg based Downbeat/Lounge/Nu Jazz Label STEREO DELUXE the group BOOZOO BAJOU released their 10 track debut album SATTA. Since 1997 the duo Peter Heider and Florian Seyberth aka BOOZOO BAJOU caught the eye of DJ's and other hipsters through the release of three twelve inch records (Night over Manaus, Under my Sensi, and Divers) which brought a whole lot of club-play and smaller notification all over the world. Two years later SATTA has sold more than 65.000 times all over the world excluding bootlegs which surfaced in such strange places as Thailand. The album has turned into a classic and is described as a milestone for the downbeat scene. Those 10 tracks from SATTA can now be found on more than 120 CD compilations worldwide and the music was used on half a dozen top class tv adverts.
After bringing BOOZOO BAJOU on the road by dj'ing all over the world in 2002 the group got lots of requests for a compilation CD of their favourite tracks by other artists. Subsequently they released JUKE JOINT, a 20 piece mix compilation in spring 2003 which again got a worldwide positive feedback especially due to the wooden box which was the packaging for the limited edition.
During 2003 BOOZOO BAJOU played a whole lot of live DJ shows (for example with The Cinematic Orchestra in Berlin or at Vienna's Dubclub) and did a few more remixes for Tony Joe White, Henry Mancini, and Nelly Furtado.

Mmm
It's just a fly love song, what
Are we living in a dream world? Are your eyes still green girl?
I know your sick and tired of arguin' but you can't keep it bottled in
Jealousy, we got to swallow it your heart and mind baby follow it
Smile, happiness you could model it and when you feel opposite
I'm going to do the best I can do 'cause I'm the best when I'm with you
Come close to me baby
Let your love hold you
I know this world is crazy
What's it without you
Put down your bags love I know in the past love
Has been sort of hard in you but I see the God in you
I just want to nurture it though this love may hurt a bit
We dealin' wit this water love you even give my daughter love
I want to build a tribe wit you protect and provide for you
Truth is I can't hide from you the pimp in me may have to die with you
Come close to me baby
Let your love hold you
I know this world is crazy
What's it without you
I know what you're thinkin', you're on my mind
You're right, you're right, you're right
You're runnin' so fast you just might take flight
Hope your not tired, tonight, tonight
You help me to discovery me I just want you to put trust in me
I kind of laugh when you cuss at me the aftermath is you touchin' me
It's destiny to we connected girl you and I we can affect the world
I'm tired of the fast lane I want you to have my last name
Come close to me baby
Let your love hold you
I know this world is crazy
What's it without you
I know what you're thinkin', you're on my mind
And you're right, you're right, you're right
You're runnin' so fast you just might take flight
Hope your not tired, tonight, tonight
I know what you're thinkin', you're on my mind
And you're right
You're runnin' so fast you just might take flight
I know what you're thinkin', you're on my mind
And you're right, you're right, you're right
You're runnin' so fast you just might take flight
Hope your not tired
The lyrics to Boozoo Bajou's song "Come Close" are a message of love and hope. The song is an invitation to come closer to the person the singer loves and to let their love heal and nurture them. The opening line, "It's just a fly love song," is an acknowledgment that love can be simple and sweet, and that words are sometimes not enough to express the depth of feeling. The singer then poses a question, "Are we living in a dream world? Are your eyes still green, girl?" suggesting that maybe they have been avoiding reality or not seeing things as they are. But the tone of the song is positive and uplifting, and the singer encourages the listener to let go of jealousy and follow their heart.
The song touches on the struggles of past relationships and the fears that come with starting a new one. The singer acknowledges that loving someone can be hard and that it may hurt, but expresses a desire to nurture the listener and build a life with them. The lyrics are full of hope, and the chorus repeats the invitation to "come close" and let love hold them, affirming that the chaos of the world is easier to navigate with someone to share it with. The song ends on a note of encouragement, reminding the listener of the power of their connection and that they can achieve anything together.
Overall, the song is a manifestation of love and hope in the face of adversity. It reminds us that even when life seems overwhelming, we can find peace and happiness in the presence of someone we love.
