A treasure trove of synth jams, pop, samba boogie, balearic and electro from 1980 & ‘90s Brazil - picked by Millos Kaiser. It’s a rare compilation that offers Brazilian music actually picked by a Brazilian. If the 80s has a bad reputation amongst traditionalists in Brazil then the 1990s are even more derived and deplored. This going against the grain and plucking gold from such forgotten periods is what makes this such a charming, unique, character-loaded and fascinating collection of music. It’s a release that is loaded with smooth grooves, bubbling bass, glistening synthesisers, funk strutting guitar lines and sheen of production that undeniably marks it of its time. Listening through Onda De Amor is akin to opening up a perfectly preserved time capsule and being transported back to a time and place that feels otherworldly in its transformative abilities.
For Kaiser this compilation is about reintroducing music during a period of reappraisal, catching a new wave and hoping cntemporary listeners will ride it with him. “The idea is to do justice to these songs. Songs that combine all the right ingredients that should have put them on radio playlists when I was growing up or at least in the cases of more adventurous DJs”.
