about
Announcing the lead single from Dora Morelenbaum’s forthcoming debut solo album, Pique. ‘Caco’ is a perfect representation of the musical vibrancy and creativity that has reached a new boiling point in Brazil. Tapping into the country’s long lineage of musical brilliance, Dora explores new sounds, colours and textures to build bridges between tradition and modernity. Fuelled by funk, guided by MPB, with jazz roots and indie pop energy, ‘Caco’ is the embodiment of everything that is exciting about Rio’s new generation of artists.
A member of the Latin Grammy award-winning band, Bala Desejo, Dora’s previous solo single and EP have laid the foundations for this hotly anticipated debut album. Imaginative, animated yet intrinsically soulful, ‘Caco’ became one of the favourites from her recent solo tour and is a taste of what to expect on the LP. A record that features a whole host of this new generation of Brazilian artists with an injection of Ana Frango Elétrico magic on co-production.
The track sweeps in with a swell of hazy Rhodes stabs and filtered choral harmonies led by Dora’s enchanting vocal prowess. Breaking into a sparkling jazz-funk groove, the pace soon reduces to a simmer as Dora strides across the seafront with the swagger of summer. A voice that washes away any lingering discontent as each new phrase laps up over you. Whistles carry across the wind, guitars strut alongside, with a backdrop of horns to add further colour to the palette. As the track reaches its climax, the energy builds from bubbling to boiling, entrancing to electrifying, fused with an indie pop sentiment that firmly places ‘Caco’ in the here and now.
A collage of musical references across eras and genres, ‘Caco’ pieces together the puzzle with a bright new picture at play.

Oh my days, how do I love this album? Let me count the ways. A kind of supergroup of 4 talented musicians who've come to together to make something extremely special. Yes, it leans heavily on classic MPB and Tropicalia classics, but it wears its influences lightly on its sleeve not least because the songwriting is uniformly fantastic throughout.
It manages to sound fresh while feeling like you've known it all your life. What a find this band are. Thank you Mr Bongo for releasing this! Mondo Pop
The debut from Brazilian musician, songwriter and producer Pedro Guinu is a rich amalgamation of Brazilian music and African rhythms. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 8, 2022
A treasure trove of cuts and flavours. The Shades of Love - Come Inside is pure disco banger but there’s so much on here to love - and for every part of the day or night. The bill withers bonus gives new life to a song I thought I never needed to hear again. Brilliant. Stef Macbeth
