→ This week! Rising Brazilian singer, songwriter Valentim Frateschi releases first LP ESTREITO including the ethereal and funky "Falando Nisso" which also features vocalist Nina Maia. Also based in São Paulo, Sessa is back with a third LP Pequena Vertigem de Amor out in a few days! Already loving that laid-back "Nome de Deus". NYC based trio Say She She has returned with third album Cut & Rewind with the perfect NYC flavored "Shop Boy" (no-wave meets disco meets hip-hop). Already reminiscing the "Summer Fun" with Ohio based duo McNeal & Niles on their 1979 LP Thrust. Wrapping-up the week with another 70's Midwest band, The Deltas, on a more funky note, with the 1977 "Do The Spank", recently re-issued by the one and only Numero Group label. Enjoy!

Cantar das Kandakinhas

Pedro Ricardo
2023 · Portugal, UK

Last month, we introduced you to the work of Portuguese producer Pedro Ricardo with the track "Do Outro Lado do Mar" from the amazing Jazzego compilation Granito featuring many interesting Portuguese jazz projects. Today we're super happy to Premiere "Cantar das Kandakinhas", one of our favorite tracks from Pedro's first LP Soprem Bons Ventos, which translates to "Good Winds Blow". A beautiful folk track filled with a delicate guitar reminiscent of the artist's Portuguese background, airy vocals and some mysteriously repetitive background vocals. Haunting! The LP is out this Friday 17th of February via never disappointing Soundway Records!
