This is a mix from DJ Nuts, one of the premier collectors of Brazilian music. The mix is dedicated to producer/arranger/composer Arthur Verocai, a man who’s talents transpired across Brazilian music through the 60′s and 70′s and culminated on his self titled debut from 1972, a record I believe to be one of the best Brazil has to offer. The mix digs deep into Verocai’s catalog of records that he’s been a part of.  The tracklist was decoded on Soul Strut.

NORMAN WESTBERG: Idling live (excerpt)

First track from the new Jon Hassell album 'Listening To Pictures (Pentimento Volume One)' - Out now:
http://smarturl.it/listeningtopictures

pen·ti·men·to / noun
Reappearance in a painting of earlier images, forms, or strokes that have been changed and painted over.

Forty years since its creation, Jon Hassell's Fourth World aesthetic remains a powerful influence on modern electronic music. Continuing his lifelong exploration of the possibilities of recombination and musical gene-splicing, fragments of performance are sampled, looped, overdubbed and re-arranged into beguiling unexpected shapes. Hassell applies the painterly technique of ‘pentimento’ to the arrangements, teasing out texture by the overlaying of sound upon sound, or a carefully timed reveal of the delicate bones pinning the frame of a track together.

The release of this new album also sees the launch of Jon’s own label, Ndeya (pronounced “in-day-ya”), which will be a home for new work as well as well as selected archival releases, including re-presses of classic sides and some astonishing unreleased music.
