Maria do Ceu wasn't just samba and bossa nova's next torchbearer when she burst onto the scene - she was the sound of Sao Paulo and its signature Brazilian soul. On her second albu m, Vagarosa, she fuses traditional rhythms with glitchy electronics, dreamy organ growls, wah-wah guitars and drum loops that spark unpredictably. Producers Beto Villares and Gui Amabis, plus Gustavo Lenza's engineering wizardry, push her voice into new territory from funky, restless grooves to the almost spiritual cover of Jorge Ben's 'Rosa Menina Rosa'. Ceu straddles heritage and innovation in this record, now remastered, and it's sensual, surprising and impossibly cool as well as being authentically Brazilian at its heart. Show more
