.. Orchestra / / 20th Celebration Far Out Recordings |
 | | Description: | 2014 release. Back in 2008, Far Out Recordings had the idea of putting together some of their best musicians from Rio in the studio to make a record that could mix cultures, generations, languages and musical ideas between Brazil, the UK and the Americas, yet be a homage to the music we all love, Brazilian music, soul and disco. They went into the studio with three producers, three engineers and musicians including Jose Robeto Bertrami and Alex Malheiros from Azymuth, Arthur Verocai, Paulinho Black (from the original Banda Black Rio), Jose Carlos and many more outstanding participants. With this amazing team, The Far Out Monster Disco Orchestra was born. Armed with two of the greatest arrangers in contemporary Brazilian music, Jose Roberto Bertrami and Arthur Verocai, it really could not go wrong. Combining a mutual love for soul, funk and disco music, majorly because of Azymuth's musical influence, they all wanted to push it one step further. They decided to have a full string orchestra and horn section on the tracks, all of which were arranged by Arthur Verocai. Later, English lyrics were given to the recordings to add a real Anglo-American feel while keeping the Brazilian harmony running strong through it's veins. In 2012, Jose Roberto Bertrami, one of the main components of the band and indeed Far Out Recordings's friend, brother and mentor, sadly passed away. He has been a massive part of the black music heritage in Brazil having been the arranger of albums such as Jorge Ben's Africa Brazil (1976), the first Candeia record, Raiz (1970), Serginho Meriti and many, many more. Bringing to the table his love for the music of Philadelphia, Far Out Recordings got into the studio with those sounds in mind to prepare the bases of the tracks. Taking in consideration the transatlantic logistics of recording, writing and mixing, this project has demanded a huge production effort, therefore it has taken a long time for this album to be put together and finally see the light of day. Disc two of the CD version includes great remixes by Theo Parrish, Mark Pritchard, the legend of disco John Morales LTJ X-Perience, Mark E, Jose Carretas, Marcellus Pittman."Far Out Monster Disco Orchestra (2CD)" is a lavish double-CD celebration of deep Brazilian disco, boogie and jazzy funk, carefully compiled and released by Far Out Recordings. Across two discs, this mixed-artist collection blends orchestral arrangements, cosmic synths, tight rhythm sections and soulful vocals into a vibrant, dance-floor-ready journey. Expect extended grooves, rich percussion, warm analog production and a sophisticated blend of classic disco energy with Brazilian swing, ideal both for dedicated listeners and for DJs looking for timeless, club-friendly cuts.
As a various-artists release, the focus lies on the stylistic breadth and musical curation rather than on a single act. The selection ranges from string-laden, cinematic disco pieces and mid-tempo boogie tracks to more experimental, spacey cuts that flirt with jazz, fusion and funk. The flow is designed to feel like a full-length DJ set: opening with accessible, uplifting tunes, moving into deeper, hypnotic territory and closing with more soulful, melodic tracks that invite repeated listening. Audiophile-friendly sound, detailed arrangements and a strong sense of groove make this 2CD set a standout in any collection of disco, rare groove or Brazilian music.
Far Out Recordings is a specialist label dedicated to Brazilian and Brazilian-influenced music in all its forms, from classic bossa and samba to jazz-funk, disco, folk and contemporary electronic hybrids.
