Rio's samba super-group
Orquestra Imperial
make their eagerly-awaited return with a new album on Mais Um Discos --
Fazendo as Pazes Com o swing
("Making Peace with the Swing") -- a majestic offering of gafieira samba shot through with a psychedelic twist of rock guitar riffs, salsa, bolero, maracatu, and more. The Orquestra line-up is like a who's-who of Rio's most sought-after musicians: the inventors of post-Tropicalia, formerly signed to
David Byrne
's Luaka Bop,
Kassin
,
Domenico
and
Moreno Veloso
(
Caetano
's son); member of
Devendra Banhart
's live band and founder (with
Fabrizio Moretti
of
The Strokes
) of rock super-group
Little Joy
,
Rodrigo Amarante
(who releases his debut solo album on Rough Trade Records, France, in early 2014); Brazilian soap opera queen & vocalist
Thalma de Freitas
, plus legendary percussionist
Wilson das Neves
, to name but six. Taking their main inspiration from gafiera samba, the genre that set the Rio clubs on fire in the early 20th century, the group updates the sound with post-Tropicalia zest. However, though treading well-established territory, all 20 of the band's members are keen to stress they are no
Buena Vista Social Club
, and more readily identify with the progressive nature of bands like
Ondatropica
,
Will Quantic
's Colombian supergroup. The group previously wowed critics and audiences with their debut album
Carnaval Só No Ano Que Vem
, which they toured throughout the UK and Europe. Their live shows have featured everyone from Brazilian legends such as
Seu Jorge
and
Caetano Veloso
to
Gruff Rhys
,
Jane Birkin
,
Jean-Claude Vannier
(who directed the band in a special
Serge Gainsbourg
concert),
The Bees
and
Chrissie Hynde
.
