DUO CARAMURU/BALDANZA: Bossa in the Shadows Labor, 2007 Pianist Fabio Caramuru and electric bassist Pedro Baldanza create a unique blend of Brazilian jazz, folk music and avant/modern classical ideas. Caramuru sounds elegant but powerful, while Baldanza lays down complex beds of choppy, chattering rhythm. Interesting stuff. Fo’s Picks: 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13, 18 1. aggressive afro-samba rhythm 2. abstracted walking choro line 3. free-sounding tangle & stroll 4. slow experimental ballad 5. gentle freeform bossa nova 6. chugging train sound, breakdown 7. mechanized variation on Jobim 8. gently spinning sensation 9. trad. dance rhythm abstracted 10. deconstructed folk ballad 11. mechanical stream of notes 12. scattered melody comes together 13. a calmer variation of track #3 14. tinkly piano & sneaky bass 15. very quiet & slow, lots of space 16. busy, with growing tension 17. thump, avant tango, weird waltz 18. walking rhythm, stabbing tones [ Fo ] 27-Jan-08 | ||
