La Forastería - Cuando Vengan A Buscarme (Cuervo Cuervo Remix) [Earthly Measures]

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.

Maria Rita Stumpf - Cântico Brasileiro No.3 (Kamaiurá)

This song is part of a group of of new releases scheduled for every month of 2024. These new tracks are energetic and dance floor intended. In particular All The Way To Draa Oasis is funky, the drums were inspired by Azymuth rhythms, on the melodic side you'll find loads of analogue synths pads and sequences alongside fine cuts of raw audio footage of African tribal chants sampled in here. "Expect the Unexpectable".

Pigmalião - All The Way To Draa Oasis

Brazilian singer-songwriter, producer Felipe Puperi aka Tagua Tagua returns to Wonderwheel with the 2nd single from his upcoming ‘Todo Tempo EP”. “Tanto (Acústico)” is an acoustic re-imagining of the title track from Felipe’s last album. Tagua’s simple, stripped back arrangement on his guitar brings the emotion forward in a different way than the original as his emotive and beautiful vocals capture the essence of the song.

ZZK Records Presents: Cruzloma’s Plegaria

Plegaria (Prayer) is the first single from Cruzloma's EP "Mitos y Ritos" (Myths and Rituals). This song creates a bridge between "bambuco," a traditional music genre from the province of Esmeraldas, located on the northern coast of Ecuador and electronic music, specifically Latin club.

The single is presented as a timeless collaboration, perhaps imagined, with a singer who would have already passed away by the time Plegaria was created. Inspired by Catalina Quintero's singing, both by her melodies and her lyrics, the track was built around an acapella sample of her voice. The original song can be found under the name 'Amigo - MI Amigo' (Friend - My Friend), on the album 'Marimba Magia' by Papá Roncón and Katanga. Bambuco has a strong presence in this album, inspiring the connection that Cruzloma expands upon, bringing their own interpretation of the genre into the equation through a blend of its rhythmic elements with those of dembow.

In Plegaria, Quintero's voice, processed with autotune, sings a poem to her beloved friend, who is represented in the video by the love and religious devotion characteristic of the Catholic faith. The track alludes to the relationship between rituals and prayers, where prayers are presented both as petitions and promises.

Cruzloma represents a quest for reconciliation with local musical languages from their position as Ecuadorian producers influenced by genres such as reggae and electronic music, and in the case of Plegaria, by dembow and club. This reconciliation appears during the creation of this track through not only a rhythmic focus on bambuco but also an instrumental one. The bambuco, as a musical genre, presents different variations throughout Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru. Bambuco in its Afro-Esmeraldean version is what influences the rhythms in Plegaria. Diego Zurita, an Afro-Ecuadorian percussionist specialized in the rhythms of the region, appears on the track having recorded instruments native to the Andean Pacific coast. On one side, there is the cununo, a conical drum made of wood with a membrane on the wider end, played with both hands. This is complemented by the guasá, a shaker made of bamboo or guadua cane, filled with seeds of achira and maize.
By blending these sounds with bass frequencies characteristic of electronic club music, a fusion of folk and contemporary elements is created, characterizing the sound of this EP. Plegaria takes us to a place of nostalgia that later lifts us up with a dynamic flute melody, which opposes and, in that way, complements the melancholic mood of the vocals. With these folkloric and contemporary elements, with this deep nostalgia that nonetheless encourages us to dance with its energetic rhythm, Plegaria presents itself as an emotional club track, shedding light on the "Bambow," an original fusion of bambuco and dembow.
