Hello, good evening! I'm an avid reader of everything posted by the huge community of Brazilian music enthusiasts I know at the internet, which includes, several discussion lists, forums and many personal blogs, such like Loronix. Tropicalia is a frequent subject, especially when discussed by people outside Brazil. Tropicalia was a very important movement, but left no more than 50 albums (according with some reviewers, no more than 20).This is the reason why I would like to say THANK YOU to AdHoc. He just sent us a Tropicalia album recorded by one of the most important artists of the movement and a very rare record, known by only a few friends. Let's see.
This is Rogerio Duprat - The Brazilian Suite (1970), for KPM Music Library, with Maestro Rogerio Duprat delivering Tropicalia arrangements with lots of electric guitars, percussion and orchestra. KPM Music Library was a British label that went famous by its "1000 Series". KPM was later bought by EMI and many of the LPS from the 1000 Series have been reissued on CD, which is not the case of Rogerio Duprat - The Brazilian Suite, unpublished since this first issue, kindly presented by AdHoc to Loronix community. Thanks once again, AdHoc. Tracks include Rogerio Duprat arrangements and compositions.

You have done something INCREDIBLE here! The detail of this posting is almost unprecedented.
I'd just like to say thanks a lot for all the cool stuff you upload onto this blog! I've downloaded quite a lot of the rare albums here. What a resource! Keep up the excellent work. Cheers / Chris
Os encartes desse disco são uma lição de design! Coisa rara de se ver hoje em dia, assim como a música.
Parabéns pelo blog e que voce continue prestando esse maravilhoso serviço para a Música Brasileira por muitos e muitos anos.
FANtastic, great to get a better version of this, i love this album :)
obrigado~!
me likes.. many cheezy sounds on here. didnt know Maestro Duprat made collaborations with KPM. Cheers
Speaking of rare Rogerio Duprat records: does anyody know "Ritmos no Ar" (1964), for VARIG airlines?
As you would expect for a film library recording, melodies are not its strong point. The horn arrangements generally follow the funky blaxploitation line without many surprises. But there are few tracks which stand out for their mix of percussion and gentle groove. Obrigado
Hi,
I’ve pimped you in my Six of the Best recommendation post : )
All the best,
Simon
Hello!
Thanks everybody who supports Loronix. Take a time to meet Simon666's website also available at Loronix blogroll.
I'm making a surprise this weekend, which is the volume two of Marcos Valle and Azymuth - Som Ambiente (1972), which I never heard about. Stay tuned.
Cheers,
zeca
Many thanks - keep spreading the word!

Hi Loronix, thanx so much for this wonderful music and thanx to Simon666 for the direction.
All your effort is appreciated.
Thanks very much for your blog. It's clearly a labor of love and I've found much music here that would be otherwise unknown or unavailable to me.
Na capa do disco Tropicalia ou Panis et Circencis, de 1968, que dava início ao movimento tropicalista, ele estava sentado, ao lado de Caetano Veloso, com um penico nas mãos. Eram dele os arranjos e a regência das doze músicas do disco. Dois anos depois, Rogério Duprat, num projeto financiado peloa Rhodia, que pretendia lançar a moda country no país, mergulhou na pesquisa da música caipira para promover o que chamou da "contaminação" entre rural e urbano.
Daí nasceu o LP "Nhô Look", um disco concebido para ser um produto de venda massiva, com as faixas interpretadas por uma orquestra com base de guitarras e baixos, um coral e uma viola. Os arranjos contemplaram jóias caipiras ou "sertanejas", como "Tristeja do Jeca", "Beijinho Doce" e "Boneca Cobiçada", a partir de clichês da country-music norte-americana. Enfim, um projeto estético que queria atrair os gosto da classe média para a música rural.

Até onde eu sei esse disco parece ser bastante raro, se não se perdeu...
Alguém sabe se é mesmo ou se eu posso encontrá-lo em algum lugar? Talvez algum colecionador nacional ou estrangeiro tenha. O pessoal daqui parece ter mais acesso a essas coisas do que eu consigo encontrar por aí...
Muito bom o blog por sinal. Parabéns.
