“Beguiling bossa nova and modern samba from a rising star of Brazilian music…nothing short of magicial.” MOJO **** “A Gem…the Nicola Conte rework gathers together the cream of the Milan jazz scene to give New Morning a wonderful elegance” Craig Charles FUNK SOUL SHOW BBC 6 Music
Rio’s original nu-bossa star Sabrina Malheiros returns with a deluxe version of her 2008 summer smash. With an all new track listing featuring four reworks, including two stunning versions of ‘Brisa Mar’ and ‘New Morning’ from the don of modern jazz and bossa Nicola Conte, and the addition of the previously unreleased jazz dance track ‘Gingar De Amor’, this beautiful modern bossa electric album flows effortlessly. Songwriter for a generation of young Brazilians, Malheiros delivers an album of golden era bossa-soul, samba, disco and house, to capture the vibe of 21st century bossa nova. With skilful re-mastering, new artwork, extensive and revealing sleeve notes from Sabrina as well as Portuguese and translated English lyrics, the ‘New Morning Deluxe Edition’ perfectly complements these gorgeous sounds of Brazilian summer.

VA - Far Out Spaced Oddyssey
Far Out Spaced Oddyssey skims together 50 minutes of Far Out psychedelia, oddities, mutations, quirks and beautiful mind bending loveliness for the first time. From the ultra rare early leftfield recordings of Quartin and Aleuda to the supernatural atmospheric electro of Rabotnik and their illicit rock alias Binario, this collection shows the leap of faith Far Out Recordings have taken with some of Brazil’s edgiest artists. The high quality production for which the label is famed never falters however, the compositions literally mind blowing. This is psychedelic folk, electronica, jazz and rock from the out there edges of Brazil to twist the brain back and forth; the soft psych and hard experimentalism is a cinematic, dancing, questioning brew. The result is intoxicating.
Far Out continue their voyage through the Brazilian archives with this wild trip deep into mutated South American psychedelia, esoteric curios and freaky electronics. Those broadcasting from the outer regions include the submerged radiophonia of Robotnik, the seedy rock outs of Binairo and the fuzzy breaks of Trobleman. One for fans of primitive electronics and the Finders Keepers axis.
Far Out Spaced Oddyssey is out now on Itunes and through the Far Out Store
