ESPERANZA is the new album from BRASIL PAPAYA. The tracks came alive and they all follow the tradition of putting side by side rock, blues, “choro” and heavy metal. Flamenco, jazz and funk are also added in discrete doses, everything is well seasoned with feeling and simplicity. Even Astor Piazolla´s tango gets its share, in an unusual version, with GAITA-PONTO, drums with double bass drums and distorted guitars all of it living harmoniously and peacefully. These are the characteristics of the soul of rock´n´roll, the beginning and the inspiration for Brasil Papaya. ESPERANZA is the result of all the experience gathered by Brasil Papaya in almost a decade of working side by side on stage and in the studio. In comparison with the previous album, the new album is a much more mature and bold type of work. Brasil Papaya´s goal in ESPERANZA is to paint a self portrait in a very natural way, avoiding digital editing, “triggers” and electronic devices during the recordings and mixing. In eight tracks, what you hear is the rhythm of human variations, music made by guitars, “cavaquinho”, acoustic guitar, pianos, bass, percussions and drums.
