 | Description: | London based Brazilian specialists Far Out Recordings venture further out to Uruguay to record a new album with fusion legend Hugo Fattoruso. After a twenty-year search for the man behind the cult 70s jazz-funk group Opa, Far Out are honoured to present Barrio Opa: a new work from Fattoruso and his team of world-class musicians, including the sensational Candombe drumming of the renowned Silva brothers. Recorded at Sondor Studios, Montevideo, the album is the natural development of the original Opa sound, fusing Afro-Uruguayan rhythms, jazz harmony and heavy funk attitude, under Hugoâ??s unique musical vision. Born in the Uruguayan capital of Montevideo in 1943, composer, arranger and multi-instrumentalist Hugo Fattoruso has had a profound influence on every aspect of Latin American musical culture. From
early beginnings, playing in his family band at street festivals around Uruguay, to fronting Los Shakers: South Americaâ??s answer to the Beatles, and one of the most successful rock and roll groups from the continent. At the end of the sixties Fattoruso was looking to broaden his musical horizons, and in 1969 he moved to New York where he formed Opa and went on to rub shoulders with the likes of Ron Carter and Creed Taylor. Fusing Candombe (traditional rhythm of Uruguay) with rock, jazz, funk and other Latin American rhythms, Opa created a distinctive Afro-Uruguayan voice within the global jazz vernacular, influencing a generation of musicians throughout the seventies and beyond. During the eighties Fattoruso moved to Brazil, where he continued to work and record with Brazilian artists including Milton Nascimento, with whom he composed the World Music Grammy winning Nascimento album in 1997. Fattoruso also famously collaborated extensively with Airto Moreia, arranging and playing on a
plethora of hit records including Fingers and Iâ??m Fine, How Are You. More recently Fattorusoâ??s music has been sampled by the likes Flying Lotus and Madlib. With such a prolific career, Fattorusoâ??s relative obscurity seems odd. Uruguay is dwarfed on either side by Brazil and Argentina, and while geography may have something to do with it, Hugoâ??s own elusiveness may also explain why someone so influential has been hitherto, so underappreciated. A deeply humble figure, never settling for too long in any one place, Hugo has dedicated his life to music and little else. It has taken twenty years for Far Out to track down the man behind Golden Wings and Magic Time, and it wasnâ??t until label boss Joe Davis met a Uruguayan producer (over one too many artisanal beers) at a world music conference in Budapest, that he finally made contact
with one of his musical idols. Following a few internet meetings and some very long impassioned conversations about Hugoâ??s life, music and mutual musical friends in Brazil, Hugo began writing the new album, and Joe booked a seat on the next flight to Montevideo. Recorded at the state of the art Sondor Studios in Montevideoâ??s
iconic Barrio Sur district, the album features some of the world class musicians at the forefront of todayâ??s Uruguayan jazz scene, including Hugoâ??s son Francisco Fattoruso on bass, Tato Bolognini on drums, Albana Barrocas on percussion and Nicolás Ibarburu on electric guitar. The album also features the Candombe drumming of the legendary Silva brothers, MathÃas, Guillermo Diaz and Wellington, who give the album its Afro-Uruguayan identity, transporting the listener to Barrio Sur, the spiritual home of Montevideoâ??s Candombe heritage. - .. OPAThe "Hugo Fattoruso Y Barrio Opa (180g LP)" is a vibrant and essential release from Far Out Recordings, capturing the legendary Uruguayan musician Hugo Fattoruso alongside his ensemble Barrio Opa. Pressed on high-quality 180-gram vinyl, this LP delivers an immersive listening experience that showcases the fusion of candombe rhythms, jazz improvisation, and Latin American grooves for which Fattoruso is renowned.
