Niños du Brasil – Ordem Micelial

Multi Culti have a way of presenting music that’s trippy, earthy, psychedelic, and equally as rooted in dance floors as it is in more unorthodox situations. That’s what makes it such a distinctive and effective label: it’s got a vision.

This latest release on the label, from Niños du Brasil, grabs you from the off with its modus operandi: tripped-out, percussive carnival music for psychonauts with an undercurrent of 60’s garage rock attitude.

After the initial freak out of ‘Esporos Dançam’ through to ‘Vermelho E Branco’ and others, the album settles into a more sedated groove with ‘Com O Sol Dissolver’. The B side feels more drummy and punky, albeit with the same earthy sound.
Sitting somewhere between Primal Scream’s ‘XTRMNTR/Evil Heat’ albums and Goat’s early material (plus enough low end and drums for DJs) - this one’s for the forest people. A must have.
