Af því að það er svo sumarlegt veður úti núna, í það minnsta hér í Reykjavík þar sem ég er staddur, þá er vel við hæfi að fá sólskins-sumarpopp alla leið frá Recife í Brasilíu. Nafnið Radio De Outono er að mér skilst portúgalska og þýðir 'Útvarp Haustsins". Illu heilli þá hætti sveitin störfum áður en hún náði nokkrum vinsældum, en jafnvel í Brasilíu er hún svo til óþekkt. Tónlistina skilgreindu þau sem indie-rokk blandað einhverju sem heitir Jovem Guarda , en það er tónlistarstefna sem átti [...]

Além da razão – Rádio de Outono Again! While not perfect, it sure is catchy. All i found out without learning Portuguese is that they haven't released anything since this self titled mini album, their website 4042s, they don't have a guitar player, i have to check out this Jovem Guarda thing, and they made a video for this song, confirming just how clean cut and handsome you would expect them to be.
There's a saying in Iceland that seldom is a good poem too often recited. Thus I'd like to draw the reader's attention once more to the excellent Brazilian band Radio de Outono. Around this time last year the band was looking for help recording a full length album, and that was the last I've heard from them. Today, there is no album in sight, no updates on their website and the other day when I looked at their Myspace page they hadn't logged in since December. Perhaps they've called it quits, which would be [...]
Fyrst maður er á annað borð kominn til Brasilíu, þá er ekki úr vegi að kíkja aðeins til borgarinnar Recife í norð-austurhluta landsins og heimsækja hljómsveitina Radio de Outono. Nafnið ku þýða Útvarp Haustins, eða eitthvað í þá áttina. Tónlistin er popprokk undir áhrifum frá stefnum sem kallast Jovem Guarda sem ku vera brasilísk tónlistarstefna sem fór mikinn á seinni hluta sjötta áratugarins og einkennist af barnalegum textum og tyggjókúlumelódíum, er mér sagt. Tyggjópopp er allavegana akkúrat rétta orðið yfir tónlist Radio de Outono. Þau hafa gefið út samnefnda EP plötu og tvær demó útgáfur, og voru [...]
Mr Iain Baker has been making life chirpy for music lovers longer than I care to remember ... Shame it was time to depart from the once `Great` XFM , but that`s a topic for another day... .. A successful music career , huge listener base at XFM , promotion work & a yet to be announced project in the pipeline (not making you sound too old , I hope Iain ?) .... Have a read of his Blog , the video for Brazilian Band ` [...]
I wrote about Radio de Outono earlier here . Around the same time I sent them an email with a few questions, but was far too impatient to wait for the answers before posting. The answers arrived in my inbox a few days ago, and here they are. They like comic books, and could use help finishing an album, so labels looking for a good band, take notice! What does your band name mean? Translating, it means "Autumn Radio". At first, we used to say that it´s a radio station that [...]
