Max De Castro - Orchestra Klaxon

The second solo album from the young man who is regarded as the most infuential talent to grace the Brazilian charts in over 30 years. Our young visionary continues his path of fusing musical elements of the past (samba, bossa nova) with modern styles of pop, R&B, hip-hop and jazz. This time out, the sound is much more organic and direct, sans the studio acrobatics of his debut. That is not to say it is any less intriguing, in fact, it is perhaps more so. The blend is instantly recognizable, yet like a fine Steely Dan album, reveals a technological musical mastery that is exhilarating. The harmonics and arrangements compel you to press the repeat button and listen over and over. Coupled with de Castro's natural vocal ability and expression, you have a collection of masterpieces that thoroughly entertains, thrills and fascinates the listener. Trama. 2004.
