DJ Dolores is back with a new CD of Brazilian house music – 1 Real.
1 Real combines traditional Brazilian pop arrangements with DJ-style mixing. The tracks are full of afro-Brazilian percussion, brass and chants.
More Sergio than Suba.
While Dolores’ sound is fairly traditional, it’s clear from the start of the CD that Dolores will deliver an up-to-date vibe. The first track, Deixa Falar, kicks off with what sounds like a dog barking in the street – except that it’s barking in rhythm.
Throughout the CD, infections rhythms, carnival-style brass and syncopated melodies conspire to get you dancing, or at least smiling. If you’re into world dance music or Brazilian electronica, DJ Dolores’ 1 Real should be right up your alley.
