Ourvision 2009
One of the great things this spring has been the Ourvision song contest - in which we participated with Papagaio and Edinho as the vocalist.
We did it all the way to the finals at the Finlandia hall and gave quite a massive show. Here's the second song we performed. It's the enredo of Mangueira from last year - "100 anos do Frevo, é de perder o sapato". Hope you like it, at least the audience seemed to :)

Check out Loronix. Again, whole lotta old brazilian records.
Global Groove is definitely worth it as well

More musical goodies
I previously pointed you (wonder how many even reads this rarely updated blog) to San sem Palavras.
Just recently, I discovered Sabadabada, which has a s**tload of brazilian records from the 60's and the 70's available. Cheesy album covers and a lot of great music that's nowadays practically impossible to find. Enjoy!

New York in pictures
My vacation's over. Fortunately there's more to come in the winter. Nice trip, although the hotel messed up with my suitcase and I only got it back this week after two weeks of waiting. As my camera was in it, I didn't have a chance to upload any pics before now.

San sem Palavras is specialiced on MPB. Ok, a lot of mainstream pop as well but the brazilian repertoire is really impressive.
Check out João Bosco's Caça à raposa, a truly magnificent piece of work from '75. I'm in love with this music.

Jus' Reach
Acidjazzy blessed us all with this.
A Joyful Noise Unto The Creator is one of my favourite albums and I've been playing especially Jus' Reach over and over again, both in my bedroom and the occasional DJ sets.

On ollut taas hyvin hiljaista tämän blogin kanssa. Tässä kuitenkin ehkä siistein juttu vähään aikaan.
