About this edit :
The original piece was shown to me on a sunny afternoon last summer in Brazil by a very dear friend, who said “dude you gotta remix this song, it’s so beautiful”.
From the admiration I feel for this friend came the inspiration to start the project. The process felt nourishing especially when I was studying the chords since they’re not on the usual 4/4 progression.

We always want to introduce you to the artists behind the music. In this case it is Pedro aka @meraki4

He wrote a little text about the meaning of the song for him:

"Gezellig" pronounced like “Huhg-zell-hgick” is a word that I got in touch right when I arrived to Amsterdam and it has a very beautiful meaning: a blend of simple pleasures like cosiness, togetherness, conviviality, jolliness, contentedness.

And of course we also asked him three questions:

1) What is your favorite book to read?,
My favourite book to read is Sidarta by Hermann Hesse

2)if you were a super-hero, what powers would you have?
 My superpowers would be ultra fast flying skills, teleportation, being able to raise my chi and change my appearance when I hit a certain level, shoot beams from my hands and super strenght, pretty much like the main character of Dragon Ball 🐉

3) What's the longest you've gone without sleep (and why)?
  The longest I've went without sleeping was during a summer solstice festival in Belgium where after not sleeping for one night me and two friends were supposed to close the main stage with a b3b at around 6pm and we ended up playing till 8am because everybody was having a lot of fun and didn't want to leave

The Producers and DJs who's work appear on this first album have not only played at Sonido Trópico's already infamous parties, but have worked alongside Sonido's 4 Resident DJs (Spaniol, Nirso, Salvador Araguaya & El Peche) in bringing new life and energy to the Sâo Paulo scene. Together they have reinterpreted and expanded, beyond precedent, the horizons of electronic music within the ultra-creative scene in São Paulo.

Tem MUITO mais por vir!

Salvador Araguaya - Fumo De Cobra

Rescatando el sonido de nuestra América Indómita, llega @el-buho con un track dulce en bossa nova. La fusión antigua de la fuerza de la samba y el romanticismo del jazz, se ven potenciados por beats downtempo que el productor incorpora a la voz de Adriana Calcanhotto. Las bases se van fusionando con la suavidad del canto, llenando al track de textura y movimiento.

Moon Cycle Releases 001/ Alceu Valença - Pra Embalar Você(ElPeche Edit)

A vibrant tribute to Pedro Santos's psychedelic and cosmic eponym  hymn. A reflection about vanity and clarity of perception of oneself. Where the mesmerizing chants and melodies invite us inside in a journey in our inner forest, while the bass drone slowly makes us enter a trance.

Milton Nascimiento - Todo O Que Você Podia Ser (VRuno Edit)

Initiated into candomblé at 8 years of age as Ogã de Xangô, Léo Leobons has rhythm in his veins. Today, he is the most accomplished Brazilian authority on afro-cuban folklore, having contributed to the education of a whole generation of percussionists from Rio de Janeiro. He has worked with everyone from Maria Rita to Azymuth; from Nando Reis to Pedro Luís e a Parede; from Lucas Santtana and Ramiro Musotto to appearances with Tito Puente and Eddie Palmieri. His work appears in films, documentaries, radio programs and television in Brazil and around the world.

Full of rich collaborations with brilliant musicians from across the spectrum of current and traditional music in Brazil, his new album, “Ritual," brings all of his experience together into one cohesive whole, traversing and combining Afro-Brazilian and Afro-Cuban traditions into one seamless and organic package. 

“Ritual REMIXED” takes it one step further by passing the original material along to a crew of remixers who push, pull, warp and morph the ancestral rhythms into productions meant to be heard on large sound systems.
