Description:
The listener quickly becomes aware of what has been musically amalgamated here: Exotic melodies of Brazilian origin played with authentic instruments as well as with 'familiar' voices of electronics. Tone colours lead the imagination into the tropical forests and back again into dreamy artificial regions of computer acoustic sounds. Drums and percussion instruments produce merry as well as mystic rhythms and trancelike conditions, now and then controlled by the European drum machines. Oduduá, the female principle of life. Dudu adopts it as the pattern for his ethnic synthesis of a global music language which incorporates Brazilian folklore and European elements, as well as clichees even and at the same time neutralises them. Thrilling music, the result of co-operation with Achim Gieseler, who collaborated here as producer, arranger and keyboarder.
