6tacool by Coca o FSM: Sem Massada, feat. Prince Wadada

6tacool by Coca o FSM: Sem Massada, feat. Prince Wadada Prince Wadada's ragga style meet Coca's soulful beats. I think it's the first collaboration between these two Angolan artists. Have a listen: Sem Massada O estilo ragga do Prince Wadada com os soul beats do Coca. Acho que é a primeira vez que estes dois artistas colaboram. Disse assim o Coca: " He heyyy!! Hoje é sexta e como sempre dou um coxe de soul de borla...esta semana bumbei com o mo Faray...Prince Wadada que escreveu um som cheio de alma...eu acho que ta uma grande malha [...]

Late Nite Lounge Vol. 39: End Come Too Soon, by Wild Beasts

Late Nite Lounge Vol. 39: End Come Too Soon, by Wild Beasts Wild Beasts, by birrooo Smother is Wild Beast's third studio album and their first hat I've had contact with, courtesy of this Massalo Photography post . I was impressed with Albatross enough to want to know more about the English band that created it, and thus got my hands (and ears) on their latest musical offering. If I thought Albatross was immense, that was before I heard the album closer, End Come Too Soon. I was on an Amtrak train heading back to NYC when this beautiful song came [...]

Conexão Lusófona em Debate

Conexão Lusófona em Debate A Conexão Lusófona, parceiro "ideológico" do Lounge, promoverá no dia 17 do corrente, em Lisboa, um debate amplo e participativo sobre a lusofonia no contexto mundial, devididos em dois temas pertinentes: O porquê de uma comunidade lusófona e lusofonia: identidade ou utopia? .

Terra e Água, by Electro Côco

Terra e Água, by Electro Côco Besides Amy Winehouse, Oliver Mtukudzi , Los Cafres , Tiken Jah Fakoly , a bit of Thievery Corporation and a dash of both Manu Chao and Bajofondo Tango Club , most of my week was spent listening to Electro Côco's album Côco do Mundo. I've talked about them here before , and also posted the Buscemi remix of their song 'Terra e Água'. But as is often the case with remixes, the original is better. I love the juxtaposition of the electronic drum n' bass beat with the more organic acoustic [...]

6tacool by Coca o FSM: Amanhã

6tacool by Coca o FSM: Amanhã So good it hardly seems real: Coca o FSM with Marisa & Milton Gulli. Three of my favorite Lusophone artists in a single beat, in a single song. Marisa shines with her tried and tested spoken word, Coca with his soulful vibe, Milton in the chorus. Excellent for Friday afternoons such as this one. Amanhã Tão bom que nem parece verdade: Coca o FSM com Marisa & Milton Gulli. Três dos meus cantores lusófonos preferidos, num só beat, numa só canção. A Marisa sempre com o seu 'spoken word' alucinante, Coca [...]

Editor's Pick: The Top 11 Songs of the Last Six Months (Vol. 5)

Editor's Pick: The Top 11 Songs of the Last Six Months (Vol. 5) I noticed that so far there are 134 less posts this year than 2010's total. It's been interesting, humorous even, to see the correlation between gainful employment (and living in New York) versus time spent blogging. Gone are the days of lazy lounging and boundless time to listen to and scope new Lusophone music. But, hopefully, the quality of the music on offer here at the Lounge will offset the quantity of posts. As always, the "Editor's Pick" list highlights the best songs that have been posted on the Lounge over the past half-year, and only bonafide Lusophone songs are [...]

6tacool by Coca o FSM: Hoje Vou Te Dar

6tacool by Coca o FSM: Hoje Vou Te Dar If you speak Portuguese, the lyrics of this song speak for themselves. If you don't, well, I can't exactly translate its racy sexual lyrics at the risk of this site no longer being 'safe for work'. It seems that Coca is in love...enjoy this soulful chilled groove made in Angola. Hoje vou te dar com força Como disse acima, para quem fala português e obviamente consegue ler estas poucas palavras, a letra sexual e ofegante deste brinde groovy fala por si. Não vou me dar ao trabalho de a pôr [...]

A Sonoridade da Fotografia: Massalo Photography on Caipirinha Lounge, Vol. 11*

A Sonoridade da Fotografia: Massalo Photography on Caipirinha Lounge, Vol. 11* I view Massalo's photostream as a source of inspiration, both visual and aural. The photos are always unique and true works of art, but sometimes the musical selections don't move me the same way; after all, we all have distinct tastes in music. But sometimes he gets it completely right and I sit there fascinated by a particular song or a particular audiovisual combination. It was in his photostream that I 'discovered' the XX and it's there that I found the Wild Beasts . The song Albatross is simply spectacular, from the first to the last of [...]

João Cabral

João Cabral He picked up his first guitar at age 17 and for the next 14 years honed his craft; in 2009, he released his first album, River of Dreams. Ever since then and even before that, João Cabral has been turning heads (and ears) with his Mozambican brand of afro-jazz, inspired in part by the years he spent living in Cape Town, arguably Africa's jazz capital. It was in the Mother City that he met and played with afro-jazz virtuosos such as his compatriot Moreira Chonguiça, Dino Miranda, and of course, Jimmy Dludlu. River of Dreams is quite accessible, the kind [...]

Conjunto 70 no WOMEX

Conjunto 70 no WOMEX Conjunto 70 and Samy Ben Redjeb's performance at Elinga this past May was so successful that the team is performing at WOMEX in Copenhagen on Wednesday, October 26 (good work to Luanda's Mano a Mano Produções in putting their money where they're mouth is and carrying through with their promise). Its amazing news for 'música popular angolana' and I'm ecstatic for them. More details to follow: O concerto do Conjunto 70 e o Samy Ben Redjeb foi um verdadeiro sucesso, e uma das repercurssões deste sucesso é a aparição do Conjunto no WOMEX a decorrer em [...]

Livre mas sem asas Carregando no 'play' acima poderão ouvir o cover (e homenagem) do Wawuti de uma das mais belas músicas do André Mingas, Livre mas sem asas.

Levando a Vida Assim, by Penna Firme

Levando a Vida Assim, by Penna Firme Sunday nights are always a good time for exploring new music. I was in the mood for something relaxed and flowing, and Moça Bonita by Penna Firme fits the bill perfectly. I was introduced to this Brazilian artist by Henrique, the one of the minds behind Zarpante . Penna Firme's samba is light, modern, and urbane; it's very easy to listen and goes down splendidly. The album, Levando a Vida Assim, is Penna's first and is available for free download over on Musicoteca's website . Among the standout tracks, besides the contagious Moça Bonita, are the excellent Sonho [...]
