the unsung has struck again. the mystery of that guy who hides himself under many sheets of pseudonyms like the zohar or ibrahim might be relevant or not, it is not the point. what is important is that his music is good as hell! exploring the inner workings of afro-americans dance music history, from sketchy blues and jazz to disco, hip hop and the toughest techno, his music is a proposition of what house music is or should be.

repress - folk-jazz composer/arranger arthur verocai was born in rio de janeiro. he has created challenging arrangements and compositions for brazilian artists jorge ben, ivan lins, leny andrade and gal costa. in 1972 verocai recorded a self-titled solo lp. it is a stunningly innovative effort. it puts verocai into a rarified field with the heavy string oriented music of charles stepney, david axelrod and frank zappa. released in a period marked by the brazilian military government, the album fared poorly. following its re-issue in 2003 the album has become a highly influential oft sampled classic (see ludacris, mf doom and little brother). the performance of this seminal 1972 record in its entirety brought the capacity luckmann crowd to a stand still. according to verocai, >he had never played the record, alive or dead!< the music has been mixed by verocai himself in rio. history turned on its head and musical justice served.
