The second release of m=minimal "Água" is the rediscovery of a musical jewel. The first limited edition of this extraordinary album was released in 1984 in Brasil.
 In the 80s in the field of minimal music nothing similar to it was released and it was long overdue to make this record accessible again. 
 Imagine the scene: Caetano Veloso and Jim O'Rourke would join to record brasil-colored minimal pieces. The result might sound like this recordings.
