Hot Weather

Lexx feat. Harriet Brown -  Hot Weather - Snippet

This is a heated vision of tropical intoxication from Bay Area combo Gilberto Rodriguez y Los Intocables. It’s Chicano Soul power on a sidewalk glide through time and space. Ojalá is a slippery rola, cat-calling to the cosmos in stretched out summertime chants. The saunter is propelled in slithering twists and sways by fluid percussion, trumpets, guitar, keys and bass. These are sweaty spells laced with fruit juice and sticky intentions. Frosty premiered Ojalá on Open End, his weekly Red Bull Radio zoom around the globe. Gilberto Rodriguez y Los Intocables’ album, Sabor Maracuyá Desnuda, emerges August 31st on Empty Cellar Records. Pre-order here: https://gilbertorodriguez.bandcamp.com/album/sabor-maracuy-desnuda

Ribs (Portico Quartet Remix)

Cappuccino was a group created at the height of disco fever by the Italian composer, producer and arranger Danilo Vaona, who worked for the Spanish label Hispavox. Vaona, who appears in the credits of records of performers like Ana Belén, José Luis Perales or Rafaela Carrá, formed this project oriented to the dance floors and obtained a relative success with a 12" that contained the songs "Tomorrow" and "Hell dance with me", the latter appeared on the soundtrack of Carlos Saura's movie "Deprisa, Deprisa". Cappuccino released another 12", of which I have no information and there is not not even referenced in Discogs, with three songs that don’t appear in the rest of their discography: "Keep Away Your Love" and "We are Here" on the A side and my theme selected for this occasion on the B side: "What About The Play". It's a composition of its own and I'm not exaggerating if I say that, by musical similarity and quality, you might think it's a song by Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards. Any information is welcome.

Sorcerer's Dance - Moe Koffman

Far Out Recordings was founded in 1994 by London DJ and record producer Joe Davis. His longstanding and insatiable passion for Brazilian music, fuelled by his initial love of the jazz, funk and soul ubiquitous on the Rare Groove scene in 1980s London, took him to Brazil first as a teenager. It was there that his enthusiasm for record-collecting led him to some of his musical heroes and the eventual formation of musical bonds and close friendships. Joe’s early discoveries led to him becoming the UK’s foremost authority on Brazilian music, much of it little-known here before his enthusiastic endorsements began to ring out across the music scene. This led to the inevitable, and the keen young music fan and DJ with an entrepreneurial flair founded Far Out Recordings.

The label’s aim from the start has been to bring the sound of Brazil to the world – to showcase the history and culture of a land bursting with creativity and energy – from the classic to the cutting edge. There have been numerous releases from both new and established Brazilian artists including legends such as Azymuth, Joyce, Marcos Valle, Arthur Verocai, The Ipanemas, Sabrina Malheiros, Clara Moreno and Binario, to name a few. 

Far Out also releases music from musicians and producers around the world who share the label’s appreciation for Brazilian music and culture. Alongside Brazilian music, the label is also well known for its longstanding association with underground dance music, having collaborated with some of the most acclaimed and accomplished electronic producers of our times. This had led to a rich plethora of pioneering and innovative dance and beats music, forging a future for the oft-neglected role of Brazil and its rhythms in the complex dance music diaspora of the UK and US, with 12" remixes and original productions from the likes of Theo Parrish, Mark Pritchard, 4hero, Dego, Andres, Marcellus Pittman, Kirk Degiorgio, Nicola Conte, A.D. Bourke, Henry Wu and Rick Willhite among many others.

Joe's crate-digging mentality has also been the driving force behind another crucial aspect of Far Out's work - unearthing forgotten masterpieces and once impossible to find records. This has led to reissues from the likes of Milton Nascimento and Roberto Quartin’s catalogue of lost gems, resulting in some of the finest Brazilian reissues you’re likely to find. While this remains a relatively small percentage of the label's output, every release is brought to you with the utmost love and care, ensuring painstaking perfection in the realms of sound, aesthetic and physicality.

Many of the artists on the Far Out roster regularly tour worldwide, playing across Europe, the USA and the Far East. Look out for them in your town, spreading the joy, the warmth and the restless creativity of Brazilian music and all that Far Out seeks to represent. “After more than twenty years of Far Out, we are only just beginning to realise our ambitions” surmises Joe. “We are still learning about production, recording and music, always.. and we are fortunate to be surrounded by the most exciting group of musicians and producers who are making consistently brilliant music. We are still intent on finding new stars, but we are immensely proud of what we have achieved so far and our formidable artist roster.”
