Secos & Molhados (1973) Lp
A Brazilian rock classic! The band had a very sophisticated sound that mixes nice vocal production with spare arrangements supported by guitar, piano, and bass. The sound is difficult to describe – but the record has some extremely compelling songwriting, and great vocal work that carries the strength of the tracks, whether or not you understand Portuguese.

Pão com Manteiga
**to be released on 15.05.2020, 180 gram vinyl** Great pearl of brazilian rock, Pão com Manteiga (Bread and Butter) was a group from São Paulo that was formed in the mid '70s and released only one album in 1976. Little information exists about this band. The group’s sound was psychedelic in this album, in lyrics and melodies, but also had influences of progressive rock and Brazilian music."Pao Com Manteiga were a pretty hairy bunch of guys from mid '70s Brazil – at least according to their image…

Tom Ze
Tom Zé is a songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, innovator and composer who was hugely influential in the Tropicália movement of 1960s Brazil. Zé is often thought of as Brazil’s answer to Zappa or Captain Beefheart; a true innovator and a true artist. Mr Bongo re-issued Zé’s debut record ‘Grande Liquidicao’ originally released in 1968. This, his second solo album, is self-titled, and was released by RGE Discos in 1970. After the peak of the Tropicália period, Zé went into relative obscurity. It wa…

Like One Long Dream

Album cover by Jaimie Branch. Personnel: John…
Let The Free Be Men
CD version. Music by four strong individual players with room for eruptive solo-parts, but always held together by intense communication and beautiful interwoven melodies. The quartet's second album A History Of Nothing got a huge number of excited reviews: "A superb quartet outing. The music is all improvised, but it's firmly rooted in jazz, with superb interaction between all of the players, both on ripping, high-velocity blowouts and more delicate forays." --Peter Margasak (Chicago Reader) "…

La Curva Paralela
Sentuhlà is one of the many aliases of musical jack of all trades José Guerrero, a long standing figure in the already rich underground scene of Valencia. In this solo excursion he explores the vast possibilities of mechanical repetition, the machine funk of dirtbag rhythms and proper boogie DIY synth music, sculpting a syncopated sound that is both modern and atavistic. Coming from a deep knowledge and ability to communicate very diverse sounds, slow jams unfold into dance music for clear eyed …
