SHABAZZ PALACES esta Segunda-feira 28 Novembro no Music Box, Lisboa

Quando ouvimos os primeiros dois EPs dos Shabazz Palaces (e mais um tema exclusivo num split de 7”), ainda em 2010, nem queríamos acreditar no quão poderosa e inesperada era a música que nos estavam a chegar aos ouvidos. Hip-hop a sério, feito por uma das suas figuras dos anos 90, o agora “renomeado” Palaceer Lazaro, ex-Digable Planets. Arquetipal vítima de indústria discográfica pré-era digital, teve tempo para projectar e concretizar uma visão completamente aparte, radicalmente fresca, e o melhor que ouvimos no hip hop esteticamente mais progressivo desde o 2º álbum dos Clipse. ‘Black Up’, editado já este ano pela Sub Pop, é um clássico instantâneo. Letras monumentais, um dos melhores MCs do mundo (ponto), produção com a música negra dos últimos cem anos memorizada e profundamente integrada na composição, e um futurismo que nada tem de protótipo – visões do amanhã hoje, altamente vividas e humanizadas. Surgiu apenas esta semana uma oportunidade de última hora de fazer já este concerto no dia 28 de Novembro (é mesmo essa a data; é assim tão em cima) e não tivemos dúvidas em aceitar de imediato. A banda vem com fé e disponibilidade, e é por tudo isto que o bilhete é tão barato para um espectáculo deste calibre. Hip hop de 2011 topo de gama, como todos os que ouviram Shabazz já sabem, mas se ainda não os conhecem não tenham hesitações – isto é música necessária. Tragam a família.

VARIOUS - Onda De Amor: Synthesized Brazilian Hits That Never Were 1984-94 (Soundway)

VARIOUS - Onda De Amor: Synthesized Brazilian Hits That Never Were 1984-94 (Soundway) Some crate-digging compilations are often the result of someone hand-picking their choice favourites from another country’s musical history, perhaps unaware or uninvolved with its cultural lineage in the process. On Soundway’s latest release - a treasure trove of synth jams, pop, samba boogie, Balearic and electro from 1980 & 90s Brazil - the tracks are picked by Millos Kaiser, one half of the Brazilian duo Selvagem, who is at the helm of throwing some of the country's best dance parties. It’s a rare compilation that offers Brazilian music actually picked by a Brazilian. This collection of sixteen tracks doesn’t comprise tracks scoured from deeply in-demand records, the rare sort that sell for eye-watering sums and that collectors spend years tracking down.

GUELEWAR - Touki Ba Banjul: Acid Trip From Banjul To Dakar

GUELEWAR - Touki Ba Banjul: Acid Trip From Banjul To Dakar ( Kindred Spirits Holland ) Comentários: ouki Ba Banjul is a compilation of the Gambian psych sensation Guelewar who played a major part in the development of the Afro Manding sound. From 1979-1982 the band released four albums, featuring some of Gambia's best funk tunes. This official first time ever reissue features the highlights of their career. Before Guelewar, Laaye N’Gorn, the lead singer of the band, was already one of Gambia’s most celebrated artists. He was the centre figure in The Supreme Eagles, with whom he played as the main act in one of Gambia’s succesful clubs ‘The Bambo No.1 Night Club’. In return for the succes the clubmanager offered them instruments, after which they renamed their band to the Super Alligators. Due to the mixture of western influences such as soul and funk with traditional and regional rhythms like boogaraboo and sawrouba, The Super Alligators had a unique sound. The result of this ble

FLORENCE ADOONI - Mam Pe'ela Su'ure (Philophon)

Florence Adooni - Mam Pe'ela Su'ure ( Philophon ) Florence Adooni shares a long history with Philophon. Being part of Guy One's group she is the voice on his radio hit "Estre". Furthermore, she is a member of Alogte Oho's Sounds of Joy and can be heard on his smasher "Mam Yinne Wa". Last but not least, Jimi Tenor chose her to sing on his instant club classic "Vocalize My Luv". In addition to all these cooperations, Florence has locally released a series of albums under her own name and without a doubt, she can be called the queen of Frafra-Gospel. "Mam Pe'ela Su'ure" is a typical Frafra-Gospel Hymn, sung during Sunday services accompanied only with shakers and hand clapping. Our version here is backed up by Kumasi's finest High Life players, who transform the song into a massive wave of groove. "Naba Aferda" is a homage to the Chief of Zuarungu, Florence's home village, which was also the home village of
