GUI BORATTO - ABAPORU 
ALBUM OUT NOW!

Returning to the full-length format after a couple of years well spent in the 12" singles circuit, Brazilian groove architect GUI BORATTO follows up his 2011 offering "III" (KOMPAKT 242 CD 90) with new masterpiece ABAPORU - an exotic and colorful journey into sound, spread over 13 richly orchestrated club tracks that display the same penchant for ridiculously catchy melodies and infectious rhythms that already informed his revered 2007 album debut CHROMOPHOBIA (KOMPAKT 152 CD 56).

In what may be his best work to date, GUI BORATTO strings together various contemporary strands of pop-infused techno and house and translates them into his very own stream of groove consciousness - also an act of cultural appropriation, as both ABAPORU's cover artwork and title suggest: putting an inspired twist on Brazil's most famous modernist painting "Abaporu" from early 20th century artist Tarsilo Do Amaral, they draw from the rich history of Brazilian modern art, where European and indigenous influences would collide in the most exciting manner.
