Raw, quirky and lo-f, it's a debut album brimming with attitude and youthful energy,
characteristics that would go on to defne their sound. Previously released digitally in
Brazil in 2018, with a private press CD version in 2020 and later a Brazilian vinyl
version in 2022, here at Mr Bongo we felt it deserved a much- needed worldwide
edition for all of us to savour.
A charming, idiosyncratic blend of MPB, Tropicalia, and indie from a talented singersongwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer who would later become one of Brazil's
brightest international stars. 'Mormaco Quiema' has a cool, laidback, swagger
channelling '90s bands such as Pavement. The arrangements feel loose and easy, the
opener, 'Farelos' (Crumbs), seems to ebb and fow on a razor's edge before the
percussion and Antonio Neves' trombone draws the song into a structure.
Another highlight is 'No Bico Do Mamilo', which has a free-fowing vibe, Ana pushing,
pulling, and playing with the song's energy, keeping listeners constantly on their toes.
Tracks such as 'Roxo' lean more into a punk attitude, with the pendulum swinging
from easy-going to frenetic. The longest song on the album 'Picles', continues to sway
the pendulum this time moving from DIY punk-funk into a psychedelic workout Coproduced by friends and fellow future collaborators Guilherme Lirio, Gustavo Benjao,
Marcelo Callado, and Thiago Nassif, 'Mormaco Quiema' is a playful showcase of Ana
Frango Electrico's distinctive style.
Plotting Ana's musical career, it's clear they are not one to be pigeon-holed, nor to be
confned to a single genre. Instead, they are ever evolving and this captivating debut
album was the building block for a career that has already seen them gain multiple
Latin-Grammy awards and tour the world with their music
