The first mixtape released on Best Effort is by Naarm (Melbourne) based DJ/ writer, Sophie McAlister. A Sooky La La at heart, this mix is comprised of Sophie’s most sentimental songs which seem to exude the palpable feeling of Saudade, a Portuguese word that can be described as ‘a pleasure you suffer, an ailment you enjoy.’ The tracks weave through 110 minutes of unrequited love and melancholic sounds that range from MPB, Psych, Folk, Middle Eastern Jazz and Soul, evoking a deep sense of nostalgia and longing.

Crafted with heartbreak from reel to reel, these feelings on tap(e) hope to offer tender respite to the listener’s jaunt down memory lane. With a nod to the past and anticipation for what’s to come, this tape invites you to welcome new spirits from the unwelcomed lull of recent despondency. Sometimes revelling in our most forsaken experiences can spark new life into what used to consume us with grief.

A regular guest at Kingston's fabled Studio One in the late 1960s and 1970s, Cornel (spelled with one L, contrary to the spelling on multiple album covers) Campbell was famed for a syrupy and high vocal register. He was a member of numerous groups early in his career, most notably the rocksteady group The Uniques. 

Campbell's most notable project was his music created with producer Bunny Lee - delicate lovers rock, a style to which Campbell was innately suited.
