mr bongo
trust mr bongo to find this exceptional brazil-meets-turkey-meets-60s-europop duo.
This debut is a stunning, contemporary masterpiece that fuses Anatolian Psychedelia, Brazilian Tropicalia, 60’s European pop and American jazz. A must for fans of Khruangbin, Portishead, Arthur Verocai, Goat, Caetano Veloso, Tom Ze, Os Mutantes, Cortex and co. The duo is formed of Kit Martin, who lives between London and France and plays all instruments on the album, and Merve Erdem, vocalist and multi-disciplinary artist from Istanbul, now based in London. each song was completed within a 12-hour window, pawning contemplation for spontaneity. The mixing techniques were done on-the-fly, tracking immediately to tape: compression, EQ, delay and reverb; meaning mixing could not be revisited! “assured debut of analogue-made Turkish/Brazilian funk” 4/5 – mojo.
