Vintage Obscura Presents: Sentimental Brazilian Music (1952-1969)

I was contacted by Moldy Fig with a few ideas on mixes. One of them was mid century nostalgic or sentimental Brazilian music. Saudade is one of those words which does not translate fully or has a larger meaning that could be described in a few sentences. The closest approximation, in English, I have learned is something like "oh its been so long" when greeting someone again you haven't seen in quite awhile. There is a sense of longing and bittersweet emotions that come with seeing them and remembering the absence that has been there unnoticed. "Saudade" comes as a declaration of these emotions and an acknowledgement of not just joy but sadness which is intertwined. For the past few years I have also been interested in Brazilian records mostly due to one of my friends who grew up in Brazil and travels there bringing back records from the local shops. From my experience most of the music from Brazil falls into the vintage obscura sphere despite his insistence that some of these are known to everyone. "Obscurity" is a strange thing because to someone who is not Brazilian, most music outside of large MPB and Samba artists is unknown to an English speaking audience. For this mix the curator wanted to collect their favorite music based around a theme which does not have a clean translation but more obscured in terms of language but clearer through an emotional lens. Saudações pra todo mundo que acabou de encontrar a gente, e um alô pra quem já é de casa. Um amigo traduziu isso pro português, aliás. Sou fascinado pela sua música apesar de não entender as palavras. Não sei explicar esse interesse mas sinto que há uma conexão sentimental associada à música, por mais que eu nunca tenha experimentado tal sentimento. Muito obrigado pelo seu interesse e apoio ao nosso canal.

It is often associated with a repressed understanding that one might never encounter the object of longing ever again. It is a recollection of feelings, experiences, places, or events, often elusive, that cause a sense of separation from the exciting, pleasant, or joyous sensations they once caused. A lot of samba music in the late 50's early 60's revolves around this theme. I got into this music through the film Black Orpheus from 1959, two of the singers in the playlist I made were featured in the film (albeit in uncredited vocal roles), Elizeth Cardoso and Augustinho Dos Santos. I don't speak/understand Portuguese myself, so I was first drawn to the music because of the sound. I like the bassy-ness and the sometimes relentless percussion beats using often local instruments like the surdo (bass drum), pandeiro (tambourine), cuíca (friction drum), and agogô (bells), contrasted with the dramatic orchestral accompaniments and complex vocal melodies that dance around these beats. I love that you can hear a conflict without knowing what they are singing about, but the translations definitely heighten the depth of appreciation. I learned about the concept of saudade as I listened to more and more of the music and wanted to learn more about the MPB/bossa nova/samba-canção genre. As a lover of old music in general, I related to this concept in that I have always loved the music of a time I could never fully live in or go back to.
