Mauricio Maestro featuring Nana Vaconcelos - Upside Down

Following Visions of Dawn – the 1976 acid-folk lost classic – Upside Down is the new recording that stirs up a time when people dared to make liberated records like this. Nana and guest vocalist Kay Lyra – completing the modern folk trio – combine floating harmonies and delicate psychedelia. Maestro’s moving compositions melt together hypnotising strings with his own darting acoustic guitar and wonderfully languid vocals. The master of percussion Nana Vasconcelos brings an endless concoction of exotic instrumentation to stirring life as mind-bending vocals move in and out of focus.

Reviews

“Evokes the perfect spaced out acid-bossa vibe…there’s a youthful pulse to this dreamy time warp of layered guitars and voices and feather-light rhythm.” The Daily Telegraph ****

“A beautiful, deep Brazilian record from Mauricio & Nana…this new album is amazing!” Gilles Peterson (BBC Radio 1)

"A wonderful journey into the roots of Brazilian music" Michael Rutten (Soulsearching)

“Delicate, intricate musical tapestry that is dream-like and intensely personal” Jungle Drums

“It is like Mauricio & Nana recorded those tracks in perfect harmony with nature. Like flying through Brazilian landscapes, touching the sun and feeling the heat!” DJ Lefto
