Jneiro Jarel returns with a new Brazilian-inspired LP for Kindred Spirits. Fauna follows up his debut album Three Piece Puzzle from 2005.
Jneiro has always had a Brazilian streak to his music, but ?nally with Fauna he gets to create a whole album inspired by the home of the Seleção.
Giving credit to his mother for turning him onto Sérgio Mendes, Tom Jobim, and Caetano Veloso at an early age. Discovering Arthur Verocai and Zuco 103, put him in the headspace to compose most of Fauna over a three month period.
But while Jneiro was ?red up by the melodies and rhythms of Brazil, the record is more than just a collection of beats and dusty samples. Dedicated to conservation, Fauna is made for the plants and wildlife in Brazil, many of them endangered and all of which have such a huge impact on the planet’s ecosystem.
Check out Amazonica which had me zoned out on some “new age brazilian” headnod ish. Jneiro is definitely bringing it on Fauna and you can pick up a free poster plus the Vinyl Package or the CD Package and experience some of this goodness
