LETRA EM DÉCIMA: NUMA CIRO
MÚSICA: SOCORRO LIRA 

1
Pra cantar desafio estou contigo
Oh poeta que temo e admiro
Estatura não tenho mais prefiro
Ser o anjo que afasta o inimigo
A morada do amor é meu abrigo
O desejo da rima é combinar
O sentido do mote está no ar
Quem pegar na palavra diz o seu
Quem pensar que eu não canto escute o meu
É com ele que vou me apresentar

2
Sou o vôo do desejo no horizonte
Sou o riso da criança desejada
Sou Lisboa, em Pessoa, visitada
A verdade beijou a minha fronte
Sou a Dolce Vita de uma fonte
Sou a taça nas mãos do vencedor
Sou o peito que acolhe o perdedor
Sou a brisa da sorte na desdita
Sou a crença daquele que acredita
No projeto de paz de um sonhador

3
Sou a voz que atravessa a escuridão
Origamis de acenos em louvor
Sou calunga de louça e negra cor
A conversa que esquenta o coração
Sou boneca de pano de algodão
Imitou-me a rainha de Sabá
Do sermão eu soletro o bê-á-bá
Pelos meus belos olhos um império
Conquistou os recintos do mistério
Sem meu canto esse mundo o que será

4
Sou o susto da paixão inesperada
Sou o beijo na bela adormecida
A valsa de Strauss em nossa vida
Quando o frevo revela a mascarada
Com a varinha de condão sou essa fada
Sou a mão que recebe o visitante
Sou a casa que acolhe o habitante
E a certeza do pão de cada dia
Eu não posso viver sem harmonia
Sou Chiquinha   Gonzaga   e Almirante

5
Sou-o-chi-ne-lo-ve-lho-pro-can-sa-ço
A pausa no mundo que tem pressa
O carrinho na escada de Odessa
E a silhueta do velho Encouraçado
Sou a água que chove no roçado
E o sol que desponta na Sibéria
Utopia que acaba com a miséria
Sou a noiva no altar do casamento
Sou a dor que caiu no esquecimento
E o remédio que mata bactéria.

6
Sou o dom de ler a mão de uma cigana
De Beethoven  a nona sinfonia
Sou a noite que separa o dia-a-dia
E o domingo entre os dias da semana
Sou o fogo que alimenta a velha chama
A natureza duradoura do amor
A violeta do olhar de Liz Teilor
Sou o fio que desmancha o labirinto
Eu só falo o que penso e o que sinto
Sou a boca carnuda de Bardot

7
Madalena confessou foi meu pecado
Carla Perez roubou a minha bunda
Dos meus sonhos a beleza é oriunda
A história nasceu do meu passado
Meu destino pelo verso foi traçado
Sou o sopro de Deus na criação
Sou o Bumba-meu-boi do Maranhão
No cordel sou a rima das sextilhas
Sou Alice no País das Maravilhas
E as sete cataratas do sertão

8
Sou na festa de Babete o apetite
Sou a bola na cesta do basquete
Sou as coxas perfeitas da vedete
E a forma do belo em Afrodite
Sou a cor da cabrocha de azeviche
Sou o raio de Iansã da Conceição
Vaidade aberta em leque do pavão
Sou as águas de março em abril
E a mistura de raças do Brasil
Sou a força dos cabelos de Sansão

9
Só se fala atualmente em internete
Endereço eletrônico  navegar
Comunica quem aprende a sitiar
Uma bomba que não mata  mas impede
A conversa cara a cara sem confete
Pois eu acho esse papo muito sério
Manuscrito já perdeu o seu império
Sobre isso escrevi sem nostalgia
Pra não ter o atraso de um dia
Eu mandei-o para Bráulio por e-méio

10
Aprendi com minha avó, desde menina,
A fazer da cantoria vocação
Assistindo  Retalhos do Sertão
Na rádio Borborema de Campina
Zé Limeira confirmou a minha sina
James Joyce com Homero foi casado
Guimarães Flor Lispector encantado
Eu não posso viver sem escritura
Se transforma em criador a criatura
Quando eu canto martelo agalopado

Nomade Orquestra return from the stratosphere via Brazil with their second offering: Entremundos (Between Worlds). Gazing outward through a kaleidoscope from the heart of Sao Paulo’s jazz scene, the collective consciousness of the ten-man orquestra has dreamt up an adventurous amalgam of earth’s most far reaching musical cultures. Recorded at Red Bull Studios, Sao Paulo, Entremundos is like a cosmic musical playground where Ethio-jazz, Indian classical and Oriental sounds dance around Afro-Brazilian roots rhythms and Northern hemisphere jazz, funk, soul, library music and hip-hop influences. The sheer vastness of the album is astounding, Nomade Orquestra have quite literally conquered the world in sound.

Caeté Raiz - Para Despertar

02 . Baiano e os Novos Caetanos - Cidadão da mata

On his debut album Travesseiro Feliz (Happy Pillow) Rio de Janeiro based dreamer and new Far Out Recordings signing Ricardo Richaid melds his tropical heritage with his love for psychedelic music, jazz and rock. He also takes inspiration from the many Brazilian greats – Caetano Veloso, Arthur Verocai, Ivan Lins, Joyce, Hermeto Pascoal, Marcos Valle and Azymuth (to name a few) – who he has worked with as an engineer, assistant and producer, in Rio’s former RCA studio, Cia dos Tecnicos.

As well as being heavily influenced by Brazil’s fabled Tropicalia movement, Richaid is the grandson of Brazilian actor, singer and Disney star Aurora Miranda (Carmen Miranda’s younger sister), so tropicalism is in his blood. Describing his sound as ‘Industrial Tropicalism’, Richaid’s music is undoubtedly a product of his environment. Just like Rio, it’s warm, hazy and beautiful. But reflecting the current mood of his homeland, there’s an ominous smog looming amongst its charm. Lamenting the political, economic and ecological crisis he sees engulfing Brazil, Richaid’s obscure, poetic lyrics touch on drugs, drones and darkness, emphasizing the importance of art to bring light in troubled times.

The unconventional time signatures and sunny jazz-folk meets post-punk aesthetic are adorned by Richaid’s studio smarts. Working day to day in Rio’s top studios, he developed a comprehensive knowledge of all aspects of the recording process. But seeking autonomy and total creative independence, Richaid went on an equipment finding mission in the USA. Upon returning, he set to work building his own studio in Rio’s Gavea district and began writing the tracks that would become Travesserio Feliz. Singlehandedly composing, producing and mixing everything himself, Richaid recalls the endless nights he spent working on the album, often sleeping on the studio floor.

Travisseiro Feliz features a host of notable names from across Rio’s music spectrum, including percussion sensation Marcos Suzano (Gilberto Gil), experimental pop artist Ana Frango Eletrico, and vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Jose Ibarra, who has been lauded for his recent performances as part of Milton Nascimento’s touring group. On interlude track ‘Formigas’ we also hear a few verses of Ricardo singing together with his 7-year-old daughter, Nina Richaid.

Living with his grandmother Aurora Miranda until the age of seventeen (who featured in Walt Disney’s Three Caballeros film, and happens to be the first human being to kiss Donald Duck… really!), young Ricardo would listen with intrigue to his father playing chromatic scales and bossa nova melodies on the saxophone; his mother’s Brazilian classical piano; or his punk rock brother slamming the drums. This eclectic musical upbringing led a teenage Ricardo to learning his trade as the bassist in a short-lived hard rock band, which disbanded when Ricardo began to dig deeper discovering the likes of Os Mutantes, King Crimson, Frank Zappa and especially the ‘Clube De Esquina’ sound pioneered by Milton Nascimento and Lo Borges. Since then, alongside engineering some of his musical heroes in Brazil, Richaid has played in bands like Mara Rúbia and nitú, from Rio’s underground experimental psych and jazz scenes.

Following lead single ‘Largado Nu’ on the 17th January, Richaid will release his debut album Travessiero Feliz on limited vinyl, CD, cassette and digitally in March 2020, via Far Out Recordings.

Deixar o barco ir
(Dani Black/Arnaldo Black)

Coisas que eu não sei que são
Me dizem que é a hora
Coisas que eu não sei se estão no vazio ou na memória
É a vida anda a mil eu sei quanta escolha fica fora sem vez
Não não quero nem falar não só de lua e solidão

Lanço na maré o coração
Que de amor e de dor nos ensina
Quero ter a certeza

Como todos querem ter de que o que esta por trás
É bem mais que água e pão
Bem mais que o sim e que o não
Que vale a pena estar aqui agora
Tudo tem a sua hora
De achar o que procura

Pra que se desesperar o coração verá
Viver é navegar é só deixar fluir
Pra que se desesperar o coração será
É só botar pra correr deixar o barco ir
Pra que se desesperar o coração verá
Viver é navegar é só deixar fluir
Pra que se desesperar o coração será 
É só sorrir e cantar olhar pra frente agir
Deixar o barco ir

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.”
