Slum Dunk Presents Uncorrupted Tropical Wave (1984-2011)
A 17 track experimental album (1h 13m 49s) — released May 16th 2011 on Slum Dunk
Uncorrupted Tropical Wave (1984-2011) is a compilation of tropically unconventional Brazilian music produced exclusively by DIY recording artists from several parts of Brazil featuring tracks by Duplexx, Satanique Samba Trio, Tetine, Shiva Las Vegas, Objeto Amarelo, Karine Alexandrino, Mueptemo, W, Divergencia Socialista & O Grito Mudo.
Born out of the Slum Dunk radio sessions - the weekly radio program hosted by Eliete Mejorado & Bruno Verner of Tetine aired on Resonance Fm 104.4 in London from 2002 to 2008 - Uncorrupted Tropical Wave (1984-2011) gives continuity to releases such as Slum Dunk Presents Funk Carioca & The Sexual Life of The Savages, Underground Post Punk from Sao Paulo, breakthrough albums conceived by Tetine for the labels Mr Bongo Records & Soul Jazz Records in 2004 and 2005 respectively.
Based on a specific scene of overlooked Brazilian artists who have continuously produced music independently for a number of years around the cities of Sao Paulo, Fortaleza, Belo Horizonte, Rio de Janeiro & Brasilia, as well as, artists who have at some point worked together on music collaborations or art projects, 'Uncorrupted Tropical Wave' brings an unusual mix of early tropical post punk, baile funk, post-samba, electronica, experimental drum machine pop, lo-fi, spoken word, new wave & ambient pieces, written between 1984-2011 and mostly self-released locally from cassette tapes to CDs and white labels.
The album comes with 17 hard-to-find tracks written by local musicians, poets, artists and writers who kept their identity intact along the years. It functions as a first attempt to map some of the uncorrupted, politically inventive, naïve, dissent and unforced anti-mainstream sound actions that took place in the country as opposed to Brazil's now well-known mainstream pop or the usual clichés made for export.
