BRANDÃO - Outros Espaço feat SUN RA ARKESTRA
COMETS COMING
Jazz / Contemporary / FusionNew Vinyl LP + obi / 20 EUR
Rodrigo Brandao’s ‘Outros Espaço’ was recorded in Sao Paulo in late 2019 with a luxury crew: Tulipa Ruiz and Juçara Marçal added to the microphone, Thiago França played flute and alto and tenor saxophones, Guilherme Granado dealt with the synthesizers and effects, Marcos Gerez measured the overall pulse with his electric bass, Thomas Rohrer played soprano and ‘rabeca’ (fiddle), and Paulo Santos dealt with the percussion. In addition to the base band, the album also features some members of Sun Ra Arkestra’s current incarnation. Respectively: Danny Thompson (RIP) on baritone and bongo, Elson Nascimento on ‘surdo’ (tom drum), Knoel Scott on tenor and soprano, with the giant Marshall Allen in a prominent role leading the collective towards the unknown, while playing the alto sax and synthesizer.
