Chegou chegou o caboclo curador
Ele roda mundo inteiro pra aliviar a nossa dor

Estes caboclo é caboclo verdadeiro
Ele atira sua flecha muito mas alem do mar
Este caboclo é caboclo da jurema
Com seu cocar de pena faz a povo balançar Chegou…

Ele nos tras as curas da floresta
O seu canto e de amor e vem do coração
Nukum mana ibubu ibubu buta
Scauata caiaue caiaue ke ke

Track Info 

THE YAWANAWÁ PEOPLE

There are about 1.000 Yawanawá living in the Brazilian state of Acre, in villages along the banks of the Gregório river, where they have made their homes since time immemorial.

The Yawanawá people's first contact with the non-indigenous world happened around the fourteenth century. It was an intense period of much conflict with the rubber barons and missionaries who invaded their lands and tried to forbid Yawanawá language, culture and spirituality. In the 1980s, chief Biraci Nixiwaka Brazil led his people in the fight for the recognition of their native territories, and the Yawanawá became the first indigenous people to obtain the official rights to their lands in the state of Acre.

The Yawanawá have since then reclaimed their sacred medicines, rituals, song and dance, festivals, games, traditional body painting and adornment, artwork and food, in a profound journey of cultural revival.

Yawanawá spirituality is a sacred territory where never a woman had dared to
step, for since ancestral times, it had belonged exclusively to men.
In 2005, Putanny and her sister Hushahu, were the first women to defy their ancient male-dominated tradition and commit to the sacred oath of the Yawanawá people. They were the first women to undergo the Yawanawá people's highest spiritual initiations.
After a year of strict diet, they earned their communities' respect as spiritual
leaders, opening the way into this sacred path for other Yawanawá women. A
break in tradition that united the male and female universes - and brought the magic of feminine spirituality to strengthen the Yawanawá culture.

Roots in the Now - Maejus (ft. Susie Ro)

Colibri Dorado (Cover Bóveda Celeste)

"Janaina was the moment for me when the intention to give birth to this album, Essência was born. Inspired by a beautiful tube mallet like instrument called "Kailani" I recorded and channeled it one day in September when the forest of Brazil was on fire, so with all my love I invoked the water goddess Janaina, who lives in every part of the earth calling, honoring her power, her intuition, her sweetness, and femininity, bringing peace to all the fires of the planet and the jungle in Brazil at this moment. I felt a collective union of the whole planet, creating and evoking unity to take care of our land, and to thank the sacred waters, in you, in me, of Janaina, and of all, connecting with the unity of all beings."

Essência

Essência bears the fruits that grow out of the medicine of listening.
It's a bridge between worlds.

Unity
Essence
Be simple
be present..

Vibrating in tune, listening, breathing, deeply rooted, reconnecting with our essence, listening to nature, from the silence, we are one with Her and from this listening we can receive her messages, the melodies and vibration that she transmits to us. 

“Essência” is a magical journey through the (sound) landscapes of Peru, Colombia, Chile, Guatemala, Austria and Portugal. Sounds of pure nature recorded in different places of the earth. In those sanctuaries, from my inner silence, an empty space is created within me to receive and give birth. Being at service to the essence and translating it into music. Serving as an instrument I transmit through my voice, my words, and the different instruments that I play. Being connected with everything, disappearing, like a bridge joining the bodies of sound and silence.”

“Cualquier revolución tiene que empezar 
por una revolución en nuestra concepción del tiempo” 
Giorgio Agamben

Érase una vez una pandemia que azotó el mundo y nos obligó a quedarnos en nuestras casas, las personas fueron compelidas a distanciarse y todo lo que nos parecía normal dejó de serlo. Miedos, frustraciones, enojos, inseguridades, algunas de las emociones reinantes aún nos acompañan en este momento. Un modelo entra en crisis y no sabemos cómo continuaremos.

Un poco azorades y confundides, desde Fértil, sentimos la necesidad de entregarnos a la inspiración (o no) que este proceso producía y lanzamos un espacio de intercambio, para recibir música creada en este momento.

Nos dimos cuenta de que la idea predominante de un tiempo lineal y productivo era, en parte, la causa del colapso. Estar “Fuera del Tiempo”, nos invita a pensar en un tiempo distinto, a observarnos, detenernos y pensar... En el estar agridulce de la pausa, esperamos la aparición de un vacío fértil, para entender mejor quiénes somos, dónde estamos y adónde vamos.

Fuera del Tiempo reúne 19 postales de una pausa.18 temas y un bonus track, de corte electrónico, compuestos por productores de distintas latitudes, e invita a un viaje pausado y reflexivo, con humores algo melancólicos y también con pasajes más orientados a la potencia del baile.

Componen este collage Pol Nada, Jin Yerei, Barda, El Remolón, Marco Selvaggio, Mente Orgánica, Xanducero, Cuervo Cuervo, Leo Silcan, Bicho, Manu Ela, Lautaro González aka Shoao, Galo Vermelho, Tomás Batista, Relo, Damia, Silly Tang ft. La Sardina, Enanomalhecho, Villa Diamante y el debut como compositor de Lavender & The Good Times.   

Desde el 7 de agosto el disco estará a precio de donación en bandcamp y todas las ganancias en esta plataforma serán donadas a les artistas involucrades.

"Any revolution must start with a 
revolution in our conception of time" 
Giorgio Agamben

Once upon a time there was a pandemic that struck the world and forced us to stay in our homes, people were compelled to distance themselves and everything that seemed normal to us ceased to be so. Fears, frustrations, anger, insecurities... were some of the emotions that took over us, and in some cases, still do. Our system has reached its limit and we do not know how we will continue.

A little lost and confused, at Fértil Discos we felt the need to give ourselves over to the inspiration (or its difficulties) that this process produced and we launched a space for exchange, to receive music created at this time.

We realized that the prevailing idea of ​​linear and productive time was, in part, the cause of the collapse. Being Fuera del Tiempo invites us to think of a different time, to observe ourselves, stop and reflect ... In the bittersweet state of this pause, we await the emergence of a fertile void, to better understand who we are, where we are and where we go.

Fuera del Tiempo brings together 19 postcards of a break. 18 songs and a bonus track, of electronic, composed by producers from different latitudes, and invites us to a quiet and thoughtful journey, with somewhat melancholic moods and, simultaneously, powerful landscapes to dance in.

Participate in this collage Pol Nada, Jin Yerei, Barda, El Remolón, Marco Selvaggio, Mente Orgánica, Xanducero, Cuervo Cuervo, Leo Silcan, Bicho, Manu Ela, Lautaro González aka Shoao, Galo Vermelho, Tomás Batista, Relo, Damia, Silly Tang ft. La Sardina, Enanomalhecho, Villa Diamante 
and the debut as a composer of Lavender & The Good Times. 

The álbum will be available on all digital platforms on August 7th. It will be a pay-as-much-as-you-want in Bandcamp, and all donations will go to the artists involved.

Cuervo Cuervo - Atitlan

From my opened heart I share this vibrations. 
For you to inhale the spirit of the jungle.
Honoring our ancestors and the sacred teachings from the grandparents of the earth.

Hoka Hey! Is battle calling. Lets raise our awareness in order to heal any individual and collective wounds.
We are reality weavers. 
With our words, thoughts and intention we can transform everything. 
Lets create paradise on earth.
