WIND Teaser

About birds, cats and refugees...
A bird had dropped from the sky.. I don't like dead birds. I used to make small crosses of sticks for the bird-graveyard I had made in my backyard when I was a kid. 
The family cat often brought us "cat-gifts".. 
I love cats still because I saw their good intentions. I still as always feel strongly connected to the birds in the sky or on the ground.. 
I was raised to show mercy and understanding towards living creatures. Even if I found dead birds on my doorstep.
It breaks my heart to see immigrants, refugees and human life being refused help or neglected in refugee camps or lost at sea..
And i am gutted when i hear that people with means are being refused to help these souls. That governments stop these helping hands with legislation that criminalise helpers as participants of human trafficking! Helping hands who bring refugees water, food, clothes or offers fugitives a ride on inhumane long walks to reach an already crowded camp etc.
And I understand that power holders, my elders and the society that raised me, want only the best for themselves, me and the generations to come. But I want to say this: 
I understand and see the love from where your "cat-gifts" comes. But we are all human beings.. And:
I don't want your "cat-gifts".
I don't want to watch the people, society and system that raised me, turn its back on human compassion in fear and love. 
I want to tell my kids and grandkids a totally different story. A story of intellect and insights that lead to choices of a love bigger than me and my -country, -continental region, -part of Europe, -part of the world.
We have the choice of mercy and compassion towards our tribesmen, women and children of the world. 
That is why, what we choose is of most importance. 
Collective sympathy, empathy and compassion is a human force.
No more "cat-gifts"....

Barra Funda is something of a homecoming for Brazilian producer Spaniol. The EP takes inspiration from the neighbourhood (barra funda) in São Paulo where Spaniol (Felipe Torquato) grew up as a kid and rediscovered when coming back from a long year touring around the world. 

The music is inspired by Felipe’s walks down the streets of the neighbourhood, originally known for its community of Spanish immigrants, going to the local park, Agua Branca, or visiting the neighbourhood’s numerous strange bars.

Opener Moinho is the name of a favela in Barra Funda where, over the past year there have been increasing confrontations between the local community and the police. In February 2017 Felipe met a young kid called Everson while working on the soundtrack for a public theatre piece. The two bonded over their love of rap and poetry and the result is this heady mix of baile funk, deep-dark, organic electronica and Everson’s gravely rap verses.

The EP closes with epic instrumental Asturias, which features guitars played by Felipe (one of the first real pieces he learnt) and is a homage to the producer’s own Spanish heritage.

Agua Branca takes its name, and its inspiration, from a park just two blocks down from where Felipe lives and where he used to play as a kid. Today it has been transformed with an incredible café and has become a nature reserve.

Sale de Baile featuring Tugce & Cosmic e Damiao is a nod to the old-style saloons.

Lavradio is the name of Felipe’s street in Barra Funda and was written alongside Agustin (Barrio Lindo) when he stayed at Spaniol’s place. Agustín was one of Felipe’s first contacts in the scene and the two have built up a close relationship over the years.
