Brazilian duo Nu Azeite’s brilliantly fun-loving debut album arrives amid hot anticipation after its two standout singles caught traction across the globe. The wide-ranging, eclectic album sees the Rio pair showcasing their idiosyncratic sound with swagger. Blending house with funk, ’80s disco, tropicália, jazz, soul and dreamy electronica, the record takes us on a journey through the unexpected. Tropical percussion and warm, sun-sozzled bass lays the foundations as bright melodies, neon synths and addictive riffs jostle with soulful vocals, jazzy keys and low-slung, seductive grooves. Playful, fun, laidback, blissfully contented and above else, warm, this record has an intoxicating atmosphere. Forever shifting styles, tempos and atmospheres, Nu Azeite is bursting with life, colour and love throughout. It feels inviting and inclusive, beckoning us all into its free-wheeling, party-loving, movershaking aesthetic. Referencing icons like Marcos Valle and João Bosco, the record has something of a timeless feel, while also pushing a distinctly contemporary and upfront sound.
