When winter came and it got too cold to work construction, Bodikhuu made Rio. The album is lush and tropical - scratchy bossa nova, street noise, internet ephemera, fat drums, subtle turns, and the guiding hands of Bodikhuu's favourite artists, Dilla and Damu the Fudgemunk. Composed on a battered MPC in a Soviet-era housing block on the outskirts of Ulaanbaatar, Rio/Bodianova is a love letter to Brazil, a place Bodikhuu knows only through music and his imagination. Rio and Bodianova were originally released as digital EPs and have become classics in the small but passionate Mongolian hip-hop underground. This new LP combines these legendary releases - the first time a Mongolian hip-hop record has been pressed to wax. The tracks have been fully remastered by Tim Stollenwerk. Artwork comes from hip-hop illustrator David Barnett (Curren$y, Erykah Badu).
