What is it I'm listening to?

I'm reviving this thread because, well, we've got some new music.

Actually, we have lots of new stuff, but what i REALLY want to share about is something MousePod played for us and I've become addicted to.

Marisa Monte, Carlinhos Brown and Arnaldo Antunes - Tribalistas.

I haven't been this in love with a CD in a while, but I can't seem to turn it off. It's perfect summer music, so languid and rich. I was playing it in my car as the hot day cooled into a foggy night, my sunroof was open and the stereo was turned up. Even traffic on the 101 couldn't dampen my mood. Monte has the purest, sweetest voice - it's like a cool drink of fresh spring water on a hot day. Brown's deep rumble provides the perfect counterpoint to Monte's sweetness.

If you are a fan of Brazillian music of any type, you MUST listen to this CD.

Monte's 2 - yes 2 - new solo albums come in close behind in my addiction. Such great stuff!

We're seeing Monte live at UCLA in November. It's a rare appearance and I'm very excited.

Thanks MousePod!
