Description:

Amazon's Hiroshi Sato! The long-awaited world premiere reissue of "UmGrito De Guerra" ('79), a synth-light mellow gem left on a minor label by the brilliant Brazilian keyboard player Pedrinho Sampaio. Manaus, the capital of the state of Amazonas, benefited from the economic development known as the "Brazilian Miracle," and until the 1990s, it was a hub where various technologies were brought in and distributed to Brazil. This trend also affected musicians, who were able to quickly acquire various keyboards, pianos, and synthesizers, which were rare in Brazil at the time. One of the albums produced in this way is this one. As can be seen from the artwork surrounded by various synthesizers, the light instrumental music that draws on the crystal piano and various synthesizers is positioned as a "light mellow" sound as we know it today. Recommended for fans of Brazilian mellow funk such as Azimuth, as well as for fans of Hiroshi Sato and others!
