From the spiritual swing of the early pioneers of modern Samba, to the dizzying hedonism of Brazil\u2019s eighties disco\/boogie craze, Clareia is a life-affirming journey through the rich and varied sounds Sabrina Malheiros has been immersed in since she can remember. For her most up-lifting and danceable album to date, Sabrina has (as always) enlisted her father Alex Malheiros &#8211; bassist of samba jazz-funk legends Azymuth \u2013 and visionary London based producer Daniel Maunick (aka Dokta Venom), son of Incognito\u2019s Jean-Paul &#8216;Bluey&#8217; Maunick.<\/p>\n<p>Sabrina Malheiros\u2019 career has often been characterised by her place in the succession of those special Brazilian women who, with unmistakable talent and effortless grace, have encapsulated the magical energy of Brazil with their voices. \u201cElis Regina, Astrud Gilberto, and Joyce all had it, and Sabrina Malheiros has it in spades.\u201d(MOJO) With her debut album Equilibria in 2005, Sabrina arrived on a wave of instant acclaim, carving out her place as the pioneering voice of a new brand of Brazilian soul music, rooted in the traditions of samba and bossa, but with an edge of contemporary electronic sophistication. Sabrina\u2019s innovative nu-bossa sound would continue with the 2006 remix album Vibrasons followed by sophomore New Morning \u2013 declared the \u201cbest album of summer 2008\u201d(Evening Standard), before 2011\u2019s best-seller Dreaming.<\/p>\n<p>Six years on, Sabrina returns with Clareia. \u201cIt means to clear, light, brighten or illuminate, which, after seeing Brazil and the rest of the world go through some very difficult times, is exactly what the writing of this album brought to my life.\u201d All tracks are written by either Sabrina, or in collaboration with her father Alex Malheiros and producer Daniel Maunick. Written and recorded in Niteroi, Brazil, overlooking Gunabara Bay and Rio\u2019s beaches, mountains and forests, the music basks in its surroundings and sings of ecological beauty, peace and sanctuary. Echoing Sabrina\u2019s emphasis on clarity, Alex notes that \u201cthe album\u2019s title represents an appeal to the minds of our civilization today, to clear our thoughts for good and for peace.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This pursuit of clarity continued into the studio: \u201cIt took a little longer than usual\u201d notes Sabrina, \u201cwhich was good in way, as all my previous albums were recorded in rush and we usually had a week for pre-production and another week in the studio, which always gave me the feeling that I could do better. With this album it was different\u2026 we took our time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Set for release at the height of summer this year, Clareia is an intergenerational masterclass of Brazil&#8217;s soulful spectrum, led by a pioneering voice of today\u2019s scene on the very top of her game. The up-lifting compositions, which take inspiration from the stunning natural beauty amongst which the album was made, and the call for the clarity of mind needed to preserve it, are enriched by this special team of some of Brazil\u2019s most established musicians. Like the sun breaking through tropical storm-clouds, Clareia is a vessel of joy, as Sabrina puts it simply, \u201cI hope Clareia brightens the soul of whoever listens to it. That&#8217;s the spirit of this album.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Far Out<br \/>\n Add to Wishlist\t Add to Cart<br \/>\nin stock $10.83<br \/>\nFormat: CD<br \/>\nCat: FARO 199CD<br \/>\nReleased: 01 Aug 17<br \/>\nGenre: International<br \/>\n<strong>BUY<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tracklist<br \/>\nSide 1<br \/>\n1.\t&#8220;Celebrar&#8221; (5:22)<br \/>\n2.\t&#8220;Clareia&#8221; (5:38)<br \/>\n3.\t&#8220;Em Paz&#8221; (5:46)<br \/>\n4.\t&#8220;Salve O Mar&#8221; (5:14)<br \/>\nSide 2<br \/>\n1.\t&#8220;Sol Ceu E Mar&#8221; (6:43)<br \/>\n2.\t&#8220;Vam&#8217;bora&#8221; (4:30)<br \/>\n3.\t&#8220;Renescera&#8221; (6:09)<br \/>\n4.\t&#8220;Vai Maria&#8221; (5:40)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Having made her mark on Brazil\u2019s rich musical legacy with three best-selling albums to date, Rio\u2019s original nu-bossa queen returns with &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":13846,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[16],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13845"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13845"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13845\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13847,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13845\/revisions\/13847"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13846"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13845"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13845"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13845"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
