Ed Motta - Criterion of the Senses (2018) [Hi-Res]

This temple of an album by the Brazilian Sultan of Soul Ed Motta marks his return to "AOR".
An album which presents eight all new tracks, a discrete forty minutes playing time, perfect for two sides of an LP, each one of them holding and unfolding a universe.

The sound spectrum ranges from Soul to Fusion to Funk and Soft Rock, thoroughly and passionately recorded and produced at Estudio Marini, A Casa and Ed Motta's own Dwitza studio, all of them based in Rio de Janeiro. The names of the featured musicians may not mean much to us, but their musical ability alone explains why they have been worshiped in Brazil since the Seventies. With their solos and even in the airtight ensemble playing, they give these songs, all of them composed, texted, arranged and produced by Ed Motta, exactly that sensual quality he himself appreciates as a listener.
