New tunes from Rossano Snel, Thavius rocks Brazil

Hey folks!

Welcome to another update from One Cell Records. This week we're really stoked about Rossano Snel's forthcoming follow-up to his superb EP, 'Gallery'. His next release is a five-track EP called 'Landscape'. Fans of his first record are in for a treat because the upcoming disc follows right on from where Rossano left off. He tells us the new EP is 'planned as a natural sequence, a second episode'. Keep an eye out for a track on it called 'Tumpah' - it's a piano solo tune which we dig very much here at the blog desk.

That's not all from Rossano right now, either. He's just released an online compliation of Brazilian music in assocation with music mag Odiluvio. Known as 'e-Brazil: The amazing new music from the land of samba', this free virtual album offers a whistle-stop tour of all the music that's hip and happening around Brazil right now. Get it right now from these links: part one and part two.

Speaking of beautiful Brazil, Thavius Beck's EP release gig went down a storm - literally - in Sao Paulo last weekend. Our man in the city tells us fans came out in their hundreds to the SESC Pompeiia despite heavy rain, heavy traffic and a major soccer game - serious stuff, remember - just a couple of blocks away.

We hear M Takara 3 opened the show with a new lineup, and only played new material on the way in their next album. Thavius himself headlined the show, and the fans had a great time, with plenty of them also picking up a copy of 'Urban/Subsonic'. Do so yourself if you haven't already - it's a stomping good one. Until next time folks, stay tuned to One Cell.
