Erasmo Carlos sounds even cooler here than usual -- still working with tunes penned with his brother Roberto -- but also taking on music by Caetano Veloso, Jorge Ben, and Marcos Valle too! There's a heady undercurrent to the record that's maybe a filtering-through of an earlier Tropicalia vibe -- a mode that Erasmo never embraced, but which leaves its impression in some of the more striking arrangements here -- especially in the way things trip out at all the best times! Fuzzy guitar and offbeat production really add a lot to the set.
