When Charlie Byrd toured South America in 1961, bossa nova - a melding of Brazilian samba rhythms with the harmonic structures and the cool sound of West Coast jazz - was booming.
We are proud to present the Mr Bongo pressing of Guilherme Coutinho E O Grupo Stalo's self-titled mythical album. Blending lo-fi, Brazilian tropicalia, jazz, funk and MPB with a unique aroma, this record is pure perfection.
The second studio album by MGMT, initially self-released through their website on March 20, 2010, prior to release on April 13 through Columbia Records.
Songs for anyone who's "going through daily life feeling like an alien," MGMT draws seasoned fans and new initiates alike into the band's eureka zone, a psychic oasis offering the opposite of dumbed-down (smarted-up?) as sympathetic counsel.
