Brazilian Wax are Joe Osborne & Henry Weekes who bring the sunniest and grooviest tracks from Brazil’s jungle-fringed golden shores to the grey concrete jungle of Leeds.
They have very kindly provided us with a special 2-hour epic: Distant Horizons.
“This mix spans a variety of our favourite bands and artists. Rather than following one genre or era, over the two hours, we’ve dived headlong into samba, explored jazz and fusion, and dipped our toes into the weird and wonderful. We’ve lined up Brazilian big-hitters such as Elis Regina and Seu Jorge alongside the more eccentric and under-appreciated, like the cinematic Hareton Salvinini and the frenetic Flora Purim. We hope the result is a journey through the lovely and lively, weird and wonderful world of Brazilian music – one we’ve come to know and love…”
