The founders of Brazilectro, Zuco 103, have done it again. Their album, After the Carnaval, makes ears salivate and hearts jump. After the Carnaval is Zuco 103's sixth album, partially recorded in Rio de Janeiro.
In March 2007 the band went to Brazil for an extensive project. In cooperation with charity organisation Ibiss they produced demos for several Favela based bands, mostly composed by unfavored streetkids.
Additionally, Stefan, Stefan and Lilian did a tour for the Brazilian release of their previous albums, and started recording for 'After the Carnaval' in the beautiful Rio de Janeiro studio 'Toca do Bandido'.
Inspired by Brazil, this famous studio, and full of new ideas the band collaborated with multitalent Sergio Cavazzioli (Gilberto Gil) on guitar and cavaquino, and the brilliant Marcos Suzano on percussion.
Zuco 103 has moved away from sample-based music, which gives this album a natural, acoustic sound. Peaceful. Produced almost with a tough kind of carelessness.
And again: there's Lilian Vieira's touching voice, together with the noisy glitter synths of Stefan Schmid and the cleverly pounding beats of Stefan Kruger.
After the Carnaval featuring the energetic bubbling brew that is the first single 'Nunca Mais' will undoubtedly stir you up.
