KASAI ALLSTARS
black ants always fly together, one bangle makes no sound
This fourth full-length album by the legendary Congolese collective marks a new milestone in their already rich history: Kasai Allstars have now expanded their musical scope by incorporating their own personal approach to electronic music into their compositions. Black Ants Always Fly… is also the first album fully produced by Kasai Allstars guitarist Mopero Mupemba.
This time, their trademarks electric guitars, traditional drums and distorted thumb pianos are complemented by intricate electronic drum programming, perfectly adapted to Kasai Allstars’ peculiar rhythmic patterns drawn from traditional trance and ritual music. Add the Allstars exhilarating vocals, and you get a gamut of great textures and mindblowing polyrhythmics.

São Paulo Confessions
Serbian-born musician/composer Suba was about to become one of Brazil's most prominent producers when he tragically tragically passed away in November 1999.
Suba left us just a few days after the release of his now-legendary album "São Paulo Confessions" (probably the most inspired album of electronic music to have come out of Brazil), and shortly before the completion of Bebel Gilberto's "Tanto Tempo" album, which was graced by his outstanding production work.
"São Paulo Confessions" has become a major cult album. It can be described as a soulful journey through the southern hemisphere’s largest megalopolis.
Based on a great mixture of acoustic + electronic beats & instruments, it contains several memorable songs, including "Felicidade", "Sereia" and "Tantos Desejos”, 3 songs which marked Cibelle's recording debuts. Also appearing are vocalists Katia B and Taciana, as well as Nordeste band Mestre Ambrosio, master percussionist João Parahyba, and poet/rocker Arnaldo Antunes.
