{"product_id":"os-barbapapas_enigma_2023_dif","title":"Enigma","description":"Enigma is the debut studio album from the space-age tropicalia quartet Os Barbapapas. These adjectives might suggest a kitschy project, but that impression is immediately dispelled by the icy dose of Brazilian jazz riffs in the album's opener, the first single, \"Se Liga Na Sequência\". Os Barbapapas explores the immense richness of Brazilian and South American musical heritage, and even beyond. In 2019, Pedro, a colleague from The Düsseldorf Düsterboys label, returned to Fun in the Church HQ after spotting the band as a sure bet on the São Paulo scene. They were then able to release Doowoodoowoo together, using the band's existing recordings. In 2022, they were finally able to reunite and work in the studio. There's a notable difference between Doowoodoowoo and Enigma, where glass harp and guitar chord melodies are separated, so the counterpoint arrangements significantly enhance the sound. Influences include Ethiopian jazz, Afro-Latin swing, the tones of North African artists like Omar Khorshid or West African artists like Tinriwen and Ali Farka Touré, as well as the rhythmic influence of Afro-Cuban and Afro-Brazilian music. It's clear, listening to Enigma, that Os Barbapapas is an exceptional live band. They have their sights set on Europe soon, with the Glass Harp safely packed away.","brand":"Os Barbapapas","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55307834491224,"sku":null,"price":20231201.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/4260437159658_825a39ec-39ed-44fe-9f85-7df6bbf9b860.jpg?v=1760308476","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en\/products\/os-barbapapas_enigma_2023_dif","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
