Folha de Jurema feat. Art​é​ria FM by Nicola Cruz / Salvador Araguaya / Spaniol

Contrary to the songs name, this interpretation of a traditional afro-brasilian candomblè song, appears to be forged from mythical lost amazonian gold. Recorded in Sao Paulo with an allstar cast of Artéria FM (on vocal duties), Salvador Araguaya (caressing the Viola Caipira) & Spaniol (stroking the Baixo), steered by Nicola’s production prowess, this quartet delivers a melodic enhancement to the summer sun. As if the sun wasn’t shining bright enough already, the single comes backed by a remarkable remixer ensemble procured from their duties as fellow sun-worshippers:

Xique Xique’s Dragonfruit Mix is a wondrous journey full of surprising leaps and bounds, alternating between hypnotic electronics and organic song structure. Saving the best til last he raises the energy whilst keep the beats low and the vibes ecstatic. HIT !

Crussen’s creamy cocodub raises the energy whilst concentrating on a dubbed out groove, (that) classic crussen baseline and carefully sliced & re-appropriated vocals.

Finally in-house poster-boy Carrot Green’s Granola mix combines disco, deep grainy baselines, juicy bells and signature flourishes into a bowl of magical mind-whirling hip-spinning edible sex.
