SOHO Radio / 25.11.2023

Originally recorded in 1979 in Paris but only released independently in Brazil in 1981, Fernando Falcão´s "Curimão" was released on the "Memória Das Aguas" album. Originally a much sought after record, it was re-released by Selva Discos in 2019.

Its mastermind, Fernando Falcão, left Brasil in 1968 during the peak of military dictatorship and moved to France, where he lived in exile for 15 years. There, after working in music, acting, and sculpting, he involved himself in Jérôme Savary's legendary Grand Magic Circus, where he met his first wife, Valérie Kling. It was from this relationship that a partnership began between the musician and his father-in-law, the artist François-Xavier Lalanne, who guided Falcão in the process of inventing sound sculptures such as the balauê – a horizontal version of the berimbau string instrument whose sound was influenced by a water stream (since there was a hose soaking parts of the balauê wet during the performances). Much of this exploration and experimentation resulted in the album "Memória das Águas", from which "Curimão" stems from.

A long time fan of Fernando Falcão´s music, Daniel Haaksman now enhanced „Curimão“ with heavy bass and turned this rare groove into a club friendly DJ track. It´s #1 in the "More Black Atlantica Edits" series which will kick off on Man Recordings in Janaury. It´s predecessor, "Black Atlantica Edits" was released on BBE records early 2020.

Juba - 11 February 2024

One of the most iconic pop songs to ever emerge from the German language sphere is undoubtedly Falco´s "Der Kommissar". Originally released in 1981, it was the ironic yet brazen Austrian take on then brand new New York rap music. Released only two years after the release of "Rappers Delight" by Sugar Hill Gang, "Der Kommissar" was an international sensation and a #1 chart hit in various European countries as well as a global club hit. For many teenagers during the 1980s, Falco showed that also white people can rap, even in German - probably the most difficult language for pop music.

"Der Kommissar" soon also reveberated in Brasil, particularly in the southern part of the giant South American country with its history of German migration. For Porto Alegre band Comunidade Nin-Jitsu, one of the most known rap-rock-funk groups in Brasil, "Der Kommissar" was a major influence in their prime years, so in 1998, they decided to release their take on the Austrian hit and recorded "Rap Do Trago (Vai Começar)" ("it´s about to begin"), a phonetic interpretation of "Der Kommissar" (actually meaning "The inspector" in German). The song is produced by fellow Porto Alegre kingpin Edu K and additionally called "Rap Do Trago" ("Rap about getting drunk") and celebrates the joys of cachaça drinking.

Man Recordings head honcho Daniel Haaksman played "Vai Começar" for many years as closing track in his sets, fast forward to 2024 and the Brasilian interpretation of the classic Austrian rap sees its re-releases on German label Man Recordings.

Let´s raise our cachaça glasses and sing along: "Pare bebum, vai começar!"

After the much acclaimed Daniel Haaksman edit for "Curimão" by Fernando Falcão, comes another Haaksman rework in the shape of "Ondas" (Portuguese for "Waves"). It´s #2 in the recently launched "More Black Atlantica Edits" series.

"Ondas" is an edit of an unreleased track by the mysterious Malandros De Berlim, a four piece German-Brasilian outfit that only released one 7" single in West Germany the mid 1970s and then disbanded.

"Ondas" is a deep rare groove samba, which easily lets the listener picture a late afternoon surf ride in the waves of Arpoador beach in Rio De Janeiro. It´s a beautiful deep track for the laid back DJs or the wee small hours sets that will create warm waves across any dancefloor.

Enjoy the wave ride!
