Bricolage

This Brazilian fella uses electronic and acoustic elements to imagine one of the strongest virtual bands I’ve ever heard. It sounds, largely, like a guy in downtown Manhattan in the mid-Nineties doing rap records and jazz gigs in between making super fried jungle beats in his loft. Aging beautifully, this one. “Bitter & Twisted” still sounds to me like Black Sheep set free as a drum n bass act. Virtuosic and trippy and also weirdly confident. A sleeper.
