Ana Frango Eletrico's petit cult classic masterpiece 'Little Electric Chicken Heart'
from 2019, which was only ever released on vinyl and CD in Brazil and Japan, has
fast become a collector's item.
Well received by fans, DJs, and reviewers on release, the album's reputation has
been slowly building ever since, gaining a Latin Grammy nomination in 2020, and
now solidly cementing itself as a gem of contemporary Brazilian music.
Across the albums nine tracks, Ana blends elements and infuences from MPB,
Tropicalia, indie rock, punk and pop , forging them together with a sumptuous
dose of their signature style. The fnesse of 'Saudade' kicks off the LP, one of
Ana's most known tracks to a non- Brazilian audience. A sublime opener,
beginning with a spellbinding piano solo before transcending into a beautiful
dream-laden slice of warmth, complete with luscious jazzy horns and deft vocal
delivery. 'Promessa e previsoes' follows, the only track on the album not to be
written by Ana, instead being penned by Chico Franca . It's a swelling and
sweeping twilight groover, building and breaking across absorbing peaks.
Other highlights on the album include the anthemic 'Chocolate', which was a frm
favourite with a packed sing- along crowd when we heard Ana perform it live.
Elsewhere, 'Se No Cinema' hits with its quirky allure, charm and catchy melodies
before transforming into a carnival spirit.
Tapping into the richness of Brazil's new wave of musical energy, the album also
includes a heavyweight lineup of collaborations with artists such as Dora
Morelenbaum (Bala Desejo), Tim Bernardes, Antonio Neves and Guilherme Lirio
to name but a few.
A short, sweet and refreshing record, that leaves nothing to waste, marrying
playful ideas with poignant themes. 'Little Electric Chicken Heart' is a future
classic and will beguile fans of '70s Brazilian recordings, Gal Costa, Mac
DeMarco, Stereolab, Superorganism, Caetano Veloso and more.
A Latin Grammy nominated 2019 masterpiece, issued for the frst time
outside of Brazil and Japan.
