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.
