Exactly two years after the phenomenal success that was Gilles Peterson in Brazil comes a new instalment of the very best music that Brazil has to offer, as we find Gilles Peterson Back in Brazil.
Gilles Peterson Back in Brazil is a double album focussing on the timeless songs and performers of the 60s & 70s and to celebrate its' release UKMusic.com have 3 copies to give away!
Gilles’s abiding love for the music of Brazil goes back to his teens ever since he first broadcast over south London from his back yard shed. Brazilian music has featured heavily in his worldwide DJ sets and on his ground breaking WorldWide show on Radio 1. In the legendary Jazz Room at the Electric Ballroom in the 80s he fed London’s dancers with a staple diet of hard jazz and obscure but much loved, percussion fuelled, Brazilian fusion. Today, he is still diggin’ and discovering those lush jazz infected classics that provide the foundation for Brazil’s funk, drum ‘n bass and hip hop modernists and for the global nu-skool jazz crew.
The CD compilation, released on Defected Records features rare tracks by the incomparable Jorge Ben, the fabulously funky Trio Mocoto and the great Wilson Simonal sit side by side lesser known gems by Silvio Cesar, Wilson De Neves and Evinha. The accompanying Novas set is all about now, taking in Brazilian DNB, reggae dub, spiritual bossa jazz and the burgeoning new reggaeton sounding Rio funk scene including tracks by Drumagick, Bruno E, Rappin’ Hood & Seu Jorge.
