Caught his movie while on vacation. I laughed my ass off. I liked the music also. Here is a smattering of tunes. The Bar-Kays ~ Soul Finger The Roots ~ Here I Come (Feat. Dice Raw & Malik B.) This version is not on the soundtrack but I think I like this one better than the one in the film. CéU ~ Roda More Soundtracks Buy from Amazon.
If you've been a longtime reader of this site, you may remember that one of my top albums last year was Cibelle's The Shine of Dried Electric Leaves, a wonderfully laid-back Brazilian pop album that defined the summer of '06 for me. If I'd been more knowledgeable about Brazilian music a year earlier, I would have first discovered CéU , Cibelle's crazy, experimental little sister. Okay, so maybe they're not sisters in blood, but the sounds are there. CéU is yet another radiantly beautiful Brazilian singer-songwriter who produces music that initially [...]
brazilian fusion // bossa Just when you think that Brazil must have surely exhausted its supply of irresistibly jazzy, funky, sexy, soulful electro-pop singer-songwriters, a girl named CéU comes along to release an irresistible album full of samba, reggae, dub, electronica, love, heartbreak, chaos and sweet tunefulness. Her influences start with her musicologist father and spread out to genres like valsa, choro, soul, rhythm and blues, hip hop, afrobeat and electrojazz. Isn't it obvious this deserves a spot on Aurgasm? :) Quite a mature sound for this Brazilian songstress' debut [...]
we got to the restaurant quarter after 9 and there were hardly anyone there. true, it's still early, but it was also sunday night; either way, it didn't look like there's going to be a crowd. which suited us fine. beyond tired after 4 intense days running a conference for over 1,000 people, we welcomed the chance to keep to ourselves. monica , carlos 's wife, order a bunch of appetizers for us. she pointed to me and told the waiter to hurry before i starved to death. the duck tacos, looking [...]
As we kiss the first half of the year goodbye, I have decided to post seven tracks from my favorite seven releases thus far. This doesn't mean I critically think they are THE BEST so far. Nor do I think they will be the greatest releases of the year. These are the seven releases (albums and EPs) I have enjoyed the most. A little reason why me likey is under the song. 7 Favorites thus far in beta-apha-cal order. Devon Sproule ~ Keep Your Silver Shined (Keep You Silver [...]
"Bem do jeito, lamento." CèU ~ Mais um lamento from CèU by CèU
You know the sound of the Cuíca , even if you've never heard the name of the instrument. The cuíca is an Afro-Brazilian friction drum used primarily in samba music and is a fixture in Rio's carnival celebrations. The cuíca came to Brazil from Africa where it was originally used for lion hunting since it can be made to sound like the roar of a female lion. Inside the open end of a cuíca is a bamboo stick that extends into the drum head. [...]
(Happy Chocolate Bunny Day!!!) If I could have coffee with any female performer, it might be CéU. She completely fascinates me (and is easy on the eyes). A mid-twenties songster from Sao Paolo by way of the world, she blends classic Brazilian music (lightly strummed acoustic guitar, the atabaque and the Agogô, etc.) with electronic instruments, sampling and a good-old fashioned scratch or two. Her voice is like a slow walk on the beach at sunset with that special someone just after sharing a dinner of [...]
