Contrasts [2LP]

Marcos Valle - Contrasts [2LP]

Double LP version. Originally released in 2003, Marcos Valle's Contrasts combined early noughties production techniques with his trademark Brazilian songwriting brilliance. The album quickly became one of Valle's most in-demand, with tracks like the triumphant "Parabéns" (which was sampled by Childish Gambino, covered by Tom Misch and remixed by Misa Negra) and bossa beach classic "Agua de Coco," both becoming firm fan favorites. Produced by Roc Hunter, and executive produced by Joe Davis, with musicians including Robertinho Silva (percussion), Alex Malheiros (bass), and Marcos' wife Patricia Alvi (vocals), Contrasts encapsulated Valle's ever evolving musical vision, bringing together samba, baião, bossa pop, broken beat, house, trip-hop and more, on one era-defining record. After 22 years, Contrasts is finally set for a double LP vinyl and CD reissue, with the original mix of "Valeu" and "My Nightingale" making it onto the vinyl edition for the first time. Remastered by Stuart Hawkes at Metropolis Studios.A1. Parabéns (Dança Do Daniel)_x000D_A2. Nêga Do Balaio_x000D_B1. Que Que Tem_x000D_B2. Besteiras de Amor_x000D_B3. Tema Do Tiago_x000D_C1.
