Gilles Peterson - In Brazil

shikenya

Review by Shinobu Shikenya

In Brazil, the latest album by Gilles Peterson, is a vibrant and eclectic mix of Brazilian music that showcases the rich and diverse musical culture of the country. Peterson, a renowned DJ and producer, has put together a collection of tracks that range from classic samba and bossa nova to more contemporary styles like funk and hip-hop.

The album opens with the infectious rhythms of "Tudo Que Você Podia Ser" by Milton Nascimento, a beautiful and uplifting song that sets the tone for the rest of the album. From there, Peterson takes the listener on a journey through the different styles and regions of Brazil, featuring tracks by legends like Gilberto Gil and Jorge Ben as well as newer artists like Seu Jorge and Criolo.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Boto," a hypnotic and atmospheric piece by the experimental group Meta Meta. The track combines traditional percussion with electronic elements to create a sound that is both ancient and modern. Another highlight is "Aguas de Marco" by Elis Regina and Tom Jobim, a classic bossa nova tune that showcases the beautiful vocals of Regina and the masterful guitar playing of Jobim.
