Millos Kaiser Selection November 2020

Millos Kaiser Selection November 2020

Over the past decade, Millos Kaiser has earned a reputation as one of the most exciting selectors out there. His drive to unearth and celebrate the incredibly rich and diverse music of his native Brazil is at the heart of everything he does. In European festivals like Dekmantel and Nuits Sonores, he turns the dance floors upside down with his unknown tropical gems, with Brazilian vibes in full technicolor. he follows his own style and mood, “never too polished, always melodic, sometimes tropical and sometimes dark”, in his own definition. Born in Niterói, after moving to São Paulo he joined forces with fellow DJ Trepanado, creating the DJ duo Selvagem and hosting parties of the same name. A few years later the two DJs also launched the Selva Discos label, re-releasing several tracks that had gained legendary status in their iconic sets. Since early 2019, however, the duo finished the partnership. Meanwhile Millos’ unique vision has continued to become bolder and more colourful. Now focused on his solo career, you can catch him playing his rare finds at Caracol, the new audiophile bar he co-owns in São Paulo, and at parties and festivals both at home and abroad.

Filipe Mukenga – Novo Som | Valentim de Carvalho
Amazing voice from Angola. My friend Trujillo showed me this one some time ago. Guess Nu Guinea played it on a Boiler Room too. Grab it!

Daniel Wang – Loo Ma No Drum Machine | Balihu
Daniel Wang’s productions are ageing very well, thank you. “Like Some Dream (I Can’t Stop Dreaming)” it’s an immortal classic for me.

Electrodelia – Electrodelia | Super Utu
I have mixed feelings about reissues, but this one was most welcomed and well done. Aim for “Visions of Electrobombay”, amazing UFO-deep-house with indian touch.

Velly Joonas – Stopp Seisku Aeg! | Frotee
Fun estonian covers!

Marlene – Déjà Vu | CBS
“Zanzibar Nights” sounds like a lost Grace Jones track only recorded in Japan. Slow but powerful.

Millos Kaiser – Edits | Lies BLK
Don’t buy this record. It sucks.

Euraf Yard Sound Groove Systim – Cannibals | Euraf
Must have weirdo reggae! Amazing music, amazing artwork.

Zé Eduardo Nazario – Poema da Gota Serena | Lugar Alto
Very nicely done reissue by Lugar Alto, incredible new label hailing from São Paulo. Percussion, synths, experimentation, jam-like recording…

Sheila Chandra – Abonecronedrone | Passat Continu
Sheila’s is probably one of my favorite female voice in the world. She was always followed by sick producers. This one it’s one of her later works and it’s out for the first time on vinyl.

Raphael Toine – Ce Ta Ou / Sud Africa Revolution | Glossy Mistakes
Nice zouk-not-zouk (the best type of zouk for me!) album. Check “Femme Pays Douce” and “Bizness a Bangkok”!

Repetentes 2008 – Gelo Gerônimo | Gop Tun
Guerrinha is a genius producer from Rio de Janeiro that you should know if you don’t.

Priscilla Ermel – Origens da Luz | Music From Memory
Priscila is for me one musician that could only emerge in Brazil. Her creations are so unique it feels she’s a media for something beyond. Great job by Music from Memory and John Goméz.
