Os Negros do Rosário


Moçambiques and Catupés recorded in the "Festa do Congo" with photos and speeches of Congadeiros. This album is compilation of songs produced by the ritual groups in Oliveira's town, Minas Gerais.

Os Negros do Rosário


Gabriel Araújo




"Araújo’s musical palette is seemingly kaleidoscopic, yet miraculously he is able to pull together diverse influences without sacrificing a point of view that is unmistakably his very own. Ludismo is at turns disorienting, psychedelic, beautiful, alien, and familiar: it’s a veritable treasure trove for anyone who loves sound." (BendingTree)

(1972) Arthur Verocai / V0


"The liner notes describe the record as the Brazilian equivalent of Shuggie Otis' Inspiration Information, and while it's not off base, I think the musical versatility in Verocai's arrangements is more expansive. The album is as sweepingly cinematic as Milton Nascimento and Lo Borges' Clube de Esquina or Borges' self-titled record, but Verocai also travels a slightly different path often layering Latin grooves over deep doses of funk. There's a looser feel as he and his backing band experiment with extended horn, guitar and keyboard solos, light bits of spacey electronics, and a heavier influence of jazz." (othermusic)
