Brazil, one of Latin America's most ethnically diverse countries. While many Brazilian music enthusiasts focus on regional takes of American funk and soul, São Paulo selector and collector Tahira delves into Brazil's rich musical heritage within the African diaspora, highlighting African rhythms. These tracks are incredibly fresh - the production is top - notch. Artists blend analog synthesizers and high - def sound design with tribal polyrhythms and samba guitar arpeggios. Tahira links artists over 4 decades, creating a new path for black Brazilian music that favors afro - futurism. Many tracks are from rare CD compilations and are on vinyl for the first time. Top tracks include Barbatuques' “Baião Destemperado,” Maga Bo's “No Balanço da Canoa (Chico Correa Remix),” Coco Raízes de Arcoverde's “Godô Pavô,” and Tahira's exclusive remix of Gilberto Gil's “Toda Menina Baiana” (a vinyl - only bonus track). A total of 7 tracks released by Jazz&Milk Recordings in 2018 and reviewed by big dumb man in 04/2018.
To use this vinyl LP, simply place it on your turntable and gently drop the needle on the starting groove. Then, sit back and enjoy the amazing Afro - Brazilian music. When handling the vinyl, make sure your hands are clean to avoid getting dirt or fingerprints on it. Store the vinyl in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent warping. If the vinyl gets dirty, you can use a soft, anti - static brush to clean it gently. Don't use any harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they can damage the surface of the vinyl.
