some crate-digging compilations are often the result of someone hand-picking their choice favourites from another countrys musical history, perhaps unaware or uninvolved with its cultural lineage in the process. on this release - a treasure trove of synth jams, pop, samba boogie, balearic and electro from 1980 & 90s brazil - the tracks are picked by millos kaiser, one half of the brazilian duo selvagem, who are at the helm of throwing some of the countrys best dance parties. its a rare compilation that offers brazilian music actually picked by a brazilian.
this collection of sixteen tracks doesnt comprise tracks scoured from deeply in-demand records, the rare sort that sell for eye-watering sums and that collectors spend years tracking down. they are the sort youd find for a few quid should you come across but, as kaiser says, the problem is finding them. they arent rare because everyone wants a copy but because no one wants them, not even the dealers.
