This is sixth in the series of the Brazil 45 boxset from the Mr Bongo label. In volume six BadBadNotGood take the reigns and curate a boxset of Brazilian tunes.

Delving into their love of Brazilian music from the'60s up to the current day, BadBadNotGood's selections work like a beloved mixtape, taking you on a journey through time and genres. Starting with contemporary tracks fromO Ternoand their sublime, skippy string- laden number 'Tudo Que Eu Nao Fiz', toChico Bernardes'heartfelt, slowly simmering folk track 'Ate Que Enfim'. Elsewhere,Menahan Street BandandRoge's modern-anthem mood lifter 'Tropical Man' feels like a timeless funky Brazilian classic, and listeners are treated toBala Desejo's Dora Morelenbaumat her most serene and ethereal on 'Vento de Beirada'.

There's also a deep dig into lost Brazilian treasures. First up, a beautifully haunting, psych-folk obscurity taken fromNaire's self-titled 1974 album. This is backed byGuilherme Coutinho and Grupo Stalo's genre- shifting, trippy- pop anomaly 'Rio Corrente', echoing successive bands such as Stereolab and Belle and Sebastian. Alongside it, a much- loved classic fromAntonio Adolfo E A Brazuca, 'Transamazonica', sits side by side with a dose of 1966 bossa-jazz excellence fromSom/3.

Closing out the boxset, the deepest and most experimental selection comes fromSebastiao Tapajos and Pedro dos Santos'quirky guitar and percussion 1972 track 'Despedida de Mangueira'. This is paired with a heroine of the keys and underground Brazilian musical great, the musician / vocalistAna Mazzottiand her track 'Agora Ou Nunca Mais'.

Acaptivating collection of sought-after trackscrossing genres, decades and tempos, offering a glimpse into BadBadNotGood's eclectic tastes, whilst exploring ever further the richness of Brazil's musical history.
