Portunhol love affair & Mambossaudade

Português :

Achava que eram poucos os Brasileiros interessados em musicas latinas até minha ultima viagem ao Brasil, voltei a Paris pensando em fazer algo criativo e divertido em cima desse tema Brasil e Latinos. 

Tenho esses discos brasileiros antigos com galera tocando ritmos latinos, e esses discos latinos antigos de musicos tocando ritmos brasileiros ou temas brasileiros em ritmo latino. Juntei e deu nisso, dois mixes, Portunhol love affair & Mambossaudade.

Os mixes vão pros Alessandro Padovano, Fred Lesmainsnoires Blogspot, Pita Uchoa, Mauricio Fleury, Peba Tropikal, e pros amantes das musicas latinas e brasileiras, com uma mençao especial pro Marcello MBgroove que, pelo jeito, saca do assunto, e um carinho atencioso pra mina da turma, Gabriela Ribeiro aka Macumbia Buena. 

Last but not least, pros Alfredobello Djtudo e Edson Carvalho, que seriam bem capazes de matar o blindfold test no que cabe as seleções brazucas aqui inseridas. Um abraço !

Français :

Peu de Brésiliens s’intéressent aux rythmes latinos, c’est du moins ce que je pensais jusqu’à mon dernier voyage au Brésil, dont je suis revenu avec l’envie de faire un petit truc créatif et amusant autour de ce thème Brésil et Latinos. 

Les vieux titres brésiliens en rythme de mambo et autres sont rares, même chose pour les morceaux latinos joués en rythme brésilien ou reprenant des thèmes brésiliens en rythme salsa. 

J’en ai fait deux petits mixes, Portunhol love affair & Mambossaudade dédiés à  Alessandro Padovano, Fred Lesmainsnoires Blogspot, Pita Uchoa, Mauricio Fleury, Peba Tropikal, et aux amants des musiques latines et brésiliennes, avec une mention spéciale pour Marcello MBgroove, qui maîtrise bien le sujet, et une tendresse particulière pour la nana de la bande, Gabriela Ribeiro, plus connue comme Macumbia Buena. 

Last but not least, pour les Alfredobello Djtudo et Edson Carvalho, qui seraient bien capables d’identifer les titres brésiliens du mix si on faisait un blindfold test. Um abraço !

Español :

Pensaba que eran pocos los Brasileños interesados en musicas latinas hasta mi ultima viagen a Brasil, de donde regrese pensando hacer algo criativo y divertido sobre este tema Brasil y Latinos.

Tengo estos discos brasileños antiguos con gente tocando ritmos latinos, asi como discos latinos antiguos de musicos tocando ritmos brasileños o temas brasileños en ritmo latino. Los reuni y aqui estan, dos mixes Portunhol love affair & Mambossaudade dedicados para los Alessandro Padovano, Fred Lesmainsnoires Blogspot, Pita Uchoa, Mauricio Fleury, Peba Tropikal, e para los amantes de musicas latinas y brasileñas, con una mencion especial para Marcello MBgroove que, de paso, entiende del tema, y un afeto atento para la chica del grupo, Gabriela Ribeiro, mejor conocida como Macumbia Buena. 

Last but not least, para los Alfredobello Djtudo y Edson Carvalho, que bien serian capazes de identificar las canciones brasileñas si hicieramos un blindfold test. Un abrazo !

English : 

I thought there were not so many Brazilians interested in latin music but realized how wrong I was during my latest stay in Brazil. I came back to Paris and wanted to do something creative and fun on that Brazil and Latinos theme. 

Got these old Brazilian records with people playing latin rhythms and those old latin records by musicians playing Brazilian rhythms or Brazilian themes over a latin beat : put them altogether and here’s what you get, two mixes, Portunhol love affair & Mambossaudade.

These are specially dedicated to the Alessandro Padovano, Fred Lesmainsnoires Blogspot, Pita Uchoa, Mauricio Fleury, Peba Tropikal, André Eloi, and to all lovers of Latin and Brazilian music, with a special shout out to Marcello MBgroove, who apparently really digs the subject, and a special affection to the only lady in the group, Gabriela Ribeiro, aka Macumba Buena. 

Last but not least, to the Alfredobello Djtudo and Edson Carvalho, as they might be able to quote the Brazilian tunes ifever we do a blindfold test. Take care y’all !

Greg de Villanova hears the link between American Funk and African pop, between tropical bass and salsa, between disco and dancehall reggae. It’s a dancefloor-packing instinct that has garnered the Paris-based DJ gigs in a dozen countries, including the US, Canada, Brazil, and countries across Africa and Europe. 

De Villanova’s thoughtful yet funky sets show: You can think globally and still bring the party. You can bust through transatlantic genre barriers and mix old and new. “I play brand new tracks, I play decades-old vinyl,” Greg explains. “I travel a lot and buy whatever I can. There is so much music you’ll never find anywhere else, that’s only distributed locally, not online, be it on LP or CD. You can put it all together, you just need to have the knowledge, the sense of history, the ear.”

Genre- and era-hopping comes second nature to de Villanova, who has long had eclectic tastes. Growing up in Paris with a Brazilian father, Greg heard soul, R&B, and classic Brazilian songs from childhood. As a teenager, he sought out obscure hip hop, swapping tapes with friends, and got hooked on the thrill of the hunt. The hip hop of the era turned de Villanova on to other music from America: funk, disco, r&b, soul, house. He chased down samples and found himself stumbling into a musical passion that spanned the Atlantic and club music history.

De Villanova’s debut as a DJ speaks volumes about his roots and his approach. One Friday night in Salvador, Bahia, de Villanova toted a bunch of the records he had recently snatched up, the collection he had already managed to amass in a few short weeks since his arrival in the provincial but creatively inclined Brazilian city. He took them to a friend’s party and spun his first professional DJ set.

That night, he discovered how his many musical loves could come together, in high-energy sets with just the right element of surprise. “I began putting salsa, say, with funk and reggae and afrobeat in Bahia,” Greg recalls. “For the next 3 years, living in Salvador, I was DJing. And every day of the week, I was going through the city, digging for old vinyl in all these experimental styles with small, really local audiences.”

Greg continues to hunt for music around the world, and he continues to push dancefloor tastes in new directions by sneaking unknown styles into his sets. “You try to trick your listeners in a friendly way,” he smiles. “You play a hit song and then you can play a few obscure tracks, so long as they have that good, sexy, light vibe.”
