Luizinho do Jêje, Marcelo Galter, Sylvio Fraga - Mocofaia (2024) [Hi-Res]

The trio Mocofaia, comprising Luizinho do Jêje, Marcelo Galter, and Sylvio Fraga, has released its debut album via the Rocinante label. The release is available on streaming platforms and vinyl, accompanied by a documentary. The group's name symbolizes "organized chaos," reflecting a synthesis of spontaneous roots and disciplined arrangements.

The musicians, possessing successful solo careers and Latin Grammy nominations, have combined forces to forge a unique sound that fuses Afro-Brazilian rhythms with contemporary innovation. The creative process was founded on collective composition and absolute mutual trust. The album draws inspiration from a wide range of music, spanning Brazilian classics (Jobim, Gil, Caymmi) to African artists. The result is a poetic and technically meticulous project that unites tradition with experimentation.
