A. Bossa Tres - Imprevisto
AA. Ana Rosely - Skim Dum Dum Dum

'Imprevisto' is one of the most unmistakable Brazilian jazz records ever made in our opinion. Dramatic intro and hypnotic piano line, decorated with panned percussion before the hats come in. Then the upright bass. A true classic.

Bossa Três formed in 1961 in Rio. They spent most of their early years touring jazz clubs in the USA, before the original line up and their pianist - and perhaps most well known band member - Luis Carlos Vinhas, returned to Brazil.

This is the final track on their ‘Em Forma!’ LP from 1965, released on Forma. ‘Imprevisto’ has never been released on a 7”.

We know very little about Ana Rosely. She released four 7” 2-track records between 1975 and 1984, the latter featuring the brilliant ‘Skim Dum Dum Dum’. The original version was released by RGE Discos in 1984, which came as a surprise to us given the sound. It is very difficult to find an original copy in good condition and they are, as ever, increasing in price.

Rita Lee & Tutti Frutti - Agora e Moda

Agora e moda is a psychedelic, disco-boogie-groove monster, brought to our attention by Greg Caz and Sean Marquand aka Brazilian Beats Brooklyn. Originally released on her Babilônia LP on Som Livre in 1978.

Rita Lee was lead singer of Os Mutantes and a hugely important figure in the Tropicalia movement. She remains one of the biggest personalities in Brazil, much loved both in and out of the music world.

Perhaps not the most well known artist internationally, but within Brazil she is as well known as, if not more so, the likes and of Ben and Simonal.

Pete Dunaway - Supermarket

‘Supermarket’ is a Rare Groove/AOR masterpiece; killer baseline, drums and heavily string laden with a perfectly delivered English vocal!

A lovely oddity. Pete Dunaway, real name Otavio Cardosa was a singer, composer, arranger and multi instrumentalist from Sao Paulo, who spent the majority of his time composing for TV themes and library instrumentals.

A. Dom Salvador - Barumba
AA. Osmar Milito - Morre o Burro, Fica o Homem

We have released several of Brazilian jazz legend Dom Salvador’s records on Mr Bongo. He worked with artists including as Elis Regina, Jorge Ben and Edu Lobo and led Salvador Trio, as well as releasing under his own name. Dom lives in New York and plays a Hotel piano bar daily.

‘Barumba’ is an uptempo funk-jazz monster with heavy drums and piano right from the off. Soaring horns add to the drama.

Originally released on his self titled LP on CBS Brazil in 1974.


Morre o burro, Fica o Homem is the third Osmar Milito track to feature in our Brazil 45’s series. A classic samba-rock track; funk drums fills and punchy horns underpin the MPB vocals, building in tempo slightly over the track. The song was originally written by Jorge Ben.

Taken from his expensive and hard to find ‘Nem Paletó, Nem Gravata’ LP released on ATCO Brazil in 1973.

What exactly is Boogie? Is it a genre, an era, a style? Colours, clothes, textures are all part of its make up. For me, Boogie is the "top shelf" music of the 80's. Anything from this era that brings along Moog synths, vocoders, DX7s, or triggered Oberheim drum sounds, is Boogie!

Brasil has a huge archive of underground dance-floor heat. Different styles of music ranging from Macumba to Samba, MPB to Pop, Electro to early Hip Hop, were all stung by this Brasilian "Boogie Bug", cleverly orchestrated by geniuses of the style; Robson Jorge, Lincoln Olivetti, Junior Mendes, Mister Sam, Sergio Sá, to name a few, were the backbone of uncountable projects by big names of Brasil´s pop and underground music scene during the 80´s.

This compilation brings together a bunch of non-obvious "compactos" (33 RPM 7" singles), most of them, promos, which never saw the light of record store shelves, but instead sat for years in the dead-vaults of radio stations or ended up in sebos, flea markets, church basements to junk yards.

I´m excited to put together this eclectic selection inspired by the finest in brasilian 80's music. Even after so many years, Brasil's  most obscure boogie gem is yet to be found on a long diggin' session thru thousands of records full of weird looking haircuts, somewhere near São Paulo or Rio de Janeiro. 
This project is dedicated to all the "Boogie Heads" doing what they do best, keep searching!

More Artist Info:
Brazilian DJ in activity since 1989

Apaixonado por música desde a infância o paulistano FGON (AKA Fábio Gonçalves ou DJ FGON) cresceu em uma família que respirava música aos finais de semana. Essa é provavelmente a semente mais forte plantada em sua alma.
Aos 13 anos de idade já era residente em um dos clubes mais icônicos de São Paulo: FLASH. Sua natural busca e descoberta de músicas (novas ou clássicas) seria uma forte base para o aprimoramento de sua técnica. Durante os 15 anos que seguiram muitas casas e públicos o receberam, entre eles Paradise, Times,  Nepal e Free Pass como residente. Em outras, como convidado, com destaque para Warrior, Soundfactory Columbia, Excalibur e algumas outras.
Após um hiato de 10 anos longe da música, voltou a pesquisar e tocar em Brasília, capital federal. Foi curador de projetos e residente de lugares como IN THE BAR e LA RUBIA CAFÉ, e também passou a tocar em festas como PicNick, Festival COMA, Boogie e SOM+AR. Em 2018 fez tour por Londres e Nova Iorque para levar seu som e seus  remixes de música brasileira. Suas produções fazem parte do repertório de muitos dj's pelo mundo que tocam músicas da cultura brasileira em seus sets.
É difícil definir um estilo para um pesquisador e adorador da música. Talvez (mas apenas talvez) transicional seja justo para defini-lo. Seus sets podem ter uma vertente ou diversas dependendo do local, da atmosfera e do tempo do set. Mas em geral suas misturas possuem Afro Brasilidades, World Music, House e Disco Music, Downtempo, Música Orgânica, Étnica e Folclórica.
Fascinated by music since childhood, DJ FGON (AKA Fábio Gonçalves) grew up in a family that breathed music on weekends. This is probably the strongest seed planted deep in your soul.
At the age of 13 he was already dj in one of the most iconic clubs in São Paulo: FLASH. His natural search and discovery of music (new or classic) would be a strong basis for the improvement of his technique. During the 15 years he played in many venues, among them Paradise, Times, Nepal and Free Pass like resident DJ. In others, as guest DJ, highlighting Warrior, Soundfactory, Columbia, Excalibur and others.
After 10 years away from music, he returned to research and play in Brasilia, federal capital. He was a project curator and resident of venues like In The Bar and La Rubia Café, and also started playing at parties such as  PicNick, Festival COMA, Boogie and
 SOM+AR. In 2018 he made his own tour to London and New York to bring his sound and remixes of Brazilian music. Their productions are part of the set of many DJ's around the world that play songs of Brazilian culture.
It is difficult to define a style for a music researcher and worshiper. Maybe (but only maybe) transitional is fair to define it. Your sets may have a strand genre or several depending on the location, the atmosphere and time of the set. But in general have a mix of Afro Brasilities, World Music, Disco Music and House Music, Downtempo, Organic Music, Ethnic and Folklore.

Caetano Veloso - Olha O Menino [FGON ReWork 2019]

O movimento samba Soul teve fulgor, no Rio, nos anos 70. Este tema maravilhoso prova-o!

01 Coluna Do Meio - Zeca Do Trombone & Roberta Sax

An extended edit of a classic track by the great Jorge Ben!

Spliced up an extended intro, created an outro and added just a bit of some slight filtering and delays on an overdubbed track to dub it out just a touch.

As always, if you dig the edit, do yourself and the artist a favor and go check out more by Jorge Ben Jor, a true brasilian master!
