A lovely ambient album with strong sense of melody thats tempered by a relaxed and fluid idea of rhythm. There’s some strong drones and good low end to the mix. It’s all on “handmade modular synth” and sticks to a consistent pallete across the 5 tracks […]
Debut album by guitar/woodwind player Tunico. Its contemporary Brazilian jazz with a fantastic lineup. There’s blazing fusion at a break-neck pace as well as rootsier moments of folk, funk and samba.
