‘Caminhos’ is a tribute to the late samba composer Catoni, featuring the masters lush vocal & guitar samples (with the permission of his family). The hard swinging hip hop track bridges gaps between classic Brazilian samba & bossa nova sounds with hard hitting Dilla-esque grooves, raw funk and boom bap, taking us on a trip to the shores of Rio de Janeiro. “The type of track you could loop forever”.

Premiere: Àbáse - Caminhos (for Catoni)

Ahead of the much anticipated release of Música Macondo's 'Brasil Novo' compilation of deep, raw and contemporary Afro Brazilian samba, we are exited to premiere Grupo Bongar's electric take on Samba de Coco, "Vento Corredor". 

Música Macondo has unearthed eight contemporary Brazilian tracks on compilation 'Brasil Novo', disseminating the rich and percussive heritage of Brazil and Samba De Coco. Selected by DJs Tahira (Sao Paulo) and Tim Garcia (London), the diversity and positivity of Brazil shines, featuring elements of samba, candomble, batuques, jazz, folk and beyond, designed with the esoteric dancefloor in mind.

DJ Tahira is a massive Brazilian music fan and has been on a research journey for a number of years, dedicated to the preservation and archiving of music made or influenced by black and indigenous Brazilians. Based out of Sao Paulo he has a particular interest in the history of Samba de Coco, a folkloric musical form that was very popular in, (and probably originated from), the north east of Brazil, by slaves and indiginous people from working class backgrounds who came together, making a rhythmical mesh of sounds dating back hundreds of years and allowing them to carve a unique cultural identity.

Ignored or disregarded as inferior by Brazil's recording industry, there are few existing original recordings of this music from the twentieth century, relying instead on oral tradition and carnivals like those in Recife or Pernambuco. In recent times there has been a flux of contemporary proponents who mix Samba de Coco with other contemporary Brazilian musical forms. Brasil Novo features both the roots, and more divergent fusions.

In the current cultural impasse that Brazil is experiencing, with artists and musicians experiencing the withdrawal of funding and services and with concerts and clubs yet to get back to pre-pandemic levels, it's never been so important to give visibility to contemporary creativity. This compilation not only gives a needy international platform to new artists, it enables an archive of Afro Brazilian culture that in some cases is disappearing. It’s also a fine example of resistance and positivity, against the odds.

Grupo Bongar, well known in Brazil and internationally, combine all manners of Brazilian folk, axé and samba, whilst they also run a centre for percussion aimed at galvanising musicians from disadvantaged backgrounds.

Exclusive Premiere: Grupo Bongar "Vento Corredor" (Forthcoming on Música Macondo)

"Mike leans into the electronic side of his musical personality sharing both his inspirations in electronic jazz, nu-jazz, jazztronica, and his own tracks & collaborations in that vein."

For this guest mix, Mike leans into the electronic side of his musical personality sharing both his inspirations in electronic jazz/"nu-jazz"/"jazztronica" and his own tracks & collaborations in that vein, shaped by a childhood love of DJing and longtime fascination of music production that have culminated in the release of his 5th album, Law of Attraction: The Remixes, his first major step forward as a producer beyond the saxophone, re-imagining his wide ranging acoustic jazz/fusion styles into a myriad of adventurous electronic contexts.

Mike Casey is a melody poet. The story-telling songwriter, producer, & sonic alchemist is a multi-talented force whose soul stirring saxophone sound and creative conception reaches out with love & embraces your musical desires, one note at a time. Bringing the joy of jazz across genre lines to a diverse audience around the world, Mike’s music has had support the BBC, HuffPost, NPR, Tracklib, JazzTimes, Jazz FM, Spotify's "Best Jazz of 2020 & 2021", Worldwide FM, NTS & countless others. In 2020, his trio was 1 of 5 global finalists in the largest ensemble based competition in jazz: the DC Jazz Festival's "DC Jazz Prix".

On a mission to be a passionate vessel for “jazz” in the 21st century, his searing sound, always aiming to tell a story, demands the attention of the listener. Mike loves to pose musical "questions" to the audience, keeping them engaged, & FEELING. 

Cognitive dissonance is a core concept in Mike’s work, which has brought him to notable stages like the Kennedy Center, BRIC Jazz Fest, Auditori Nacional, Minton's, Ginny's, Jamboree, & Future Music Forum.

Niklas Bühler X Packed Rich - Sea Diver II

Youngbloods presents a new series by Reginald Chapman's PRESSURE FIT project featuring a series of jazz covers recorded with the trombonists friends & collaborators over the internet while quarantined.

"2020 has not been kind to the live entertainment industry, one of the communities that has had to go 100% digital with the advent of Covid-19. For many, live shows was more than just entertainment, it was lifeline, a way for musicians to work out things of the heart in a common place with other artists. This has been replaced with distanced collaborations. Somehow one can sense the need want and comfort of belonging between the musicians in the Brady Bunch style video panels that are now so prevalent. This project is a documentation of a place holder lifeline until we can once again spend time in the same room, bathing in the healing presence of creative togetherness. Oh what a day that will be. "

Astro Nautico’s Atlantics X is a compilation celebrating a decade of the label’s existence and fundraising to provide financial assistance for its community members impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic.

A wide range of beloved artists return to the label, including Photay, Time Wharp, Honey Oat, Michael Beharie, Lee Clarke, IGBO, Tatiana Heuman, Persona La Ave & Baraka, Andre Wiken, Basile3, and C. Form. Label co-founders Paul Jones (P X A), Sam O.B., and Kuhn all contribute new music in the tradition of the original Atlantics Vol. 1-3 compilations (’09-’13).

Astro Nautico’s first all-label compilation since 2013’s Atlantics Vol. 3, Atlantics X serves as an index of the artistic and curatorial development of a ten-year exploration of the interstices of genres, moods, and modes of musical creation.

From Photay’s chirping, thunderous dark mechanics on ‘Sea Urchin’ to Time Wharp’s feather light synth meditation ‘12-31-12,’ dynamic curves traverse a terrain of many sounds at many plateaus. Pop experimentalism in Michael Beharie, IGBO, and Sam O.B. sets a heartbeat that cracks, melts, and is resampled in the shattered electronics of Tatiana Heuman and fragmentary lo-fi trap of Kuhn, while Andre Wiken and C. Form differently treat the dancefloor as a space of reverie and intrigue.

Atlantics X is a crowning jewel of the mutual aid fund and fundraising campaign of the same name. Astro Nautico initiated this fundraiser in spring in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. All sales and streams of the Atlantics X compilation support members of the label's community with financial needs due to Covid-19. Since May, the label has published 12 projects, from singles and EPs to albums and contemplative dance videos, in this series. Astro Nautico has distributed $4,262.65 to date to fund recipients, with priority to BIPOC recipients.

More information and donation links for the Atlantics X mutual aid fund are available on GoFundMe: www.gofundme.com/f/atlanticsx
