5 out of 5 stars Great New Bossa Nova & Brazilian Jazz !!!!!!!!!!.......2005-02-14

Marcos Valle has always been a superb composer and player;and
this is a great come back for him after several years of innactivity; and what a come back; there is no weak cut in this awesome CD; he combines Electronica with Bossa Nova, with Jazz, with Samba; etc. etc.
If you like Marcos Valle (doesn't matter from the 60's to the 90's), this is a super addition to your collection; don't be misled; this is a Highly endorsed album. Enjoy!!!!!

4 out of 5 stars Solid comeback for Valle.......2001-01-30

I think this is a great cd. Valle's songwriting is above average, with no weak numbers. I also like the production, which is both cool and slightly 'trippy', and which provides the music with a great sound. My favorite numbers are 'Novo Visual', 'Abandonu', 'Cidade Aberta', 'Mushi Mushi' and 'Bar Ingles'. Definitely worth your while.

2 out of 5 stars Bossa Nova modernized.......2000-11-03

This is the same Marcos Valle who was a mover and shaker of the original bossa boom. The liner photos show how very pretty he was then, and how much the worse for wear he looks now. His music has changed in much the same way. I don't like to listen to this album often, because every track goes on far too long. The old melodic flair is still there in places - the best is 'Mushi Mushi' - and he has modernized his style by adding elements of pop and jazz; it is only fair to add that some people will like it that way. Valle's keyboard playing is much featured, and most tracks are instrumentals. He sings on 'Mushi Mushi' and there is also a female vocalist on a few tracks. I was recommended to buy this by a young fan of Brazilian music, but I prefer the old Valle of the 60s.
