Horse Meat Disco Presents : Disco And Boogie From Brazil Vol. 1

Description

After 13 years of work, Mr Bongo is proud to present this compilation of favorite Brazilian disco and boogie finds from legendary London disco experts, Horse Meat Disco. This labor of love brings together a fascinating sample of disco, funk, boogie, samba and MPB, past and present. Unearthing tracks from the seemingly endless mine of Brazilian gold, the compilation includes legends like Jorge Ben, Gretchen, Marcos Valle and Robson Jorge & Lincoln Olivetti, alongside unsung heroes like Zé Carlos and Carlos Bivar.Over 20 years ago, the Horse Meat Disco team (James Hillard, Severino Panzetta, Jim Stanton and Luke Howard) began their weekly residency at Eagle London in 2003. It was the same year Luke first traveled to Brazil, marking the start of an unbroken love story. A vibrant blend of comforting flavors, sun-drenched disco and boogie, fueled by the spirit of a nation where music is a central pillar of life, this compilation perfectly captures the excitement and taste of discovery that won the hearts of Horse Meat Disco over 20 years ago.
