For Volume 4, the album Friends from Rio 2 is the starting point and the map for these trips into the subconscious of each track. The divergent paths of the different producers take you cross genre to give you a living history of dance music with a heady Brazilian vibe. Included are IG Culture’s radical reworking of Cravo E Canela released as 12” earlier in the year to much delight in the media, featuring the gorgeous afro-vocals of Bembe Segue.The track Sob O Mar is given added grooves by Kyoto Jazz Massive - an insistent beat and jazzy piano submerging you in Nair Candia’s seductive underwater vocal. While Escravos do Jo is transformed into a hard ‘come-to-the-Carnival’-bateria.
