Wonderwheel mainstay Chancha Via Circuito (aka Pedro Canale) introduces his fifth full-length with its first single, “El pavo real,” featuring the Meridian Brothers (aka Eblis Álvarez). Cutting his teeth early at Buenos Aires’s legendary ZZK digital cumbia parties, Chancha became known worldwide as the originator of the cumbia-inspired electronic music that takes cues from environmental sounds and South American folkloric traditions. Pedro’s musical progeny include names such as Nicola Cruz, El Búho, Dengue Dengue Dengue, King Coya and more.

“El pavo real” (or “the peacock” in English) is rooted in the now-familiar chug-chug of a dembow beat, made increasingly complex with the addition of further polyrhythmic percussion; the main melodic motif is initially played on a buzzy synth - a sonic prelude to the accompanying strings that join later in the song - adding yet another layer. It’s in this layering that Pedro’s true mastery shines: If one tries to isolate the individual sounds and rhythms, the incredible complexity is apparent, and yet, taken as a whole, everything melts together in a seamless sway of movement and melody. 

Providing vocals is Eblis Álvarez, the academy-trained Colombian singer-songwriter & multi-instrumentalist of the acclaimed Meridian Brothers (really more of a solo project than a band, as the moniker might suggest). Alvarez, recently hailed in a longform article by the New York Times, sings about the titular peacock in lilting Spanish, at times stretching out the vowels in question. It’s the perfect addition to an already great song, and the collaboration of two of Latin America’s foremost innovative artists places “El pavo real” in rarified air.

“El pavo real” is out on Brooklyn’s Wonderwheel Recordings September 30th, 2022, with an album to follow later in the Fall.

Maria Rita is a musical pioneer that was ahead of her time. On first hearing her song, 'Cântico Brasileiro No.3 (Kamaiurá)’, we thought it sounded like a contemporary remix that an artist such as Carl Craig could have produced. In fact, it came out in 1988 and was taken from Maria's 'Brasileira' album, released on the Brazilian, independent Acorde imprint. The song would go on to gain cult status with its inclusion on John Gomez's superb 'Outro Tempo' compilation, released on the Music From Memory label in 2017.

The album fuses new-age electronics with indigenous vocals and Amazonian rhythms. It is beautiful and unique and takes you on a journey through different moods, textures and ethereal planes. Through the sounds Maria created, you join her on a timeless voyage gazing into the future whilst embracing her powerful roots.

Maria Rita Stumpf was born in the southern inland of Brazil, in the mountains of Aparados da Serra. She started writing music at the age of 14, and through participation in festivals and song contests, she developed her material and sound. A move to Rio de Janeiro in 1985 furthered her career and led to the release of the 'Brasileira' album. The record features the legendary pianist Luiz Eça, alongside the group Uaktí and Ricardo Bordini.

1993 saw the release of 'Mapa das Nuvens (Map of the Clouds)' on CD via the Leblon label, but soon after, Maria would have a hiatus from the music industry, dedicating herself to her cultural and arts agency, Acorde. She left the stage and recordings behind, but quality always shines through and years after its original release, international diggers, producers and DJs rediscovered the greatness of Maria's music. This would lead to a re-issue of the ‘Brasileira’ LP, and later Optimo Music/Selva Discos released a 12” EP of ‘Brasileira’ remixes by Selvagem, Carrot Green and Joakim. Maria also spoke at the Red Bull Music Academy Festival in São Paulo, performed at both the Kino Beat Festival and the Brazilian leg of the Dutch festival, Dekmantel. Her two latest albums received critical acclaim, ’Inkiri Om’ in 2020 and ‘Ver Tente’ in 2022. At last, Maria has got the credit and kudos she deserves, inspiring new and future generations of producers and music lovers.

Though previously re-issued, it was after a conversation with Maria that we learned that she wanted to keep this sublime record in press, and this was something that we couldn’t wait to put into action. So here it is, the Mr Bongo pressing of ‘Brasileira’, housed in a gatefold cover.

New York-based galaxy-hopping quartet Combo Chimbita kicks off 2025 with “Dímelo,” their first single on Wonderwheel Recordings. A fast-paced, funky track blending glazy, cumbia-infused guitars, jazzy drums, and Carolina Oliveros’ hypnotic vocals, “Dímelo” reflects self-love and choosing oneself. Recorded with Victor Axelrod, it marks a return to their roots. Formed in 2016, the Colombian diaspora band fuses jazz-informed rhythms, cosmic synths, and mesmerizing guacharaca-driven grooves.
