Um Lugar Legal - In the studio with Hyldon & Adrian Younge

"We're always looking for a better place, right? Especially when things aren't going well, but we always hope, and see that place in our minds.” Opening with a killer drum break from the late “Ivan Mamão” Conti, Hyldon croons over an Adrian Younge production that elicits the sound of Wu Tang meeting Tim Maia. A liberating anthem about the end of a toxic relationship. With heartfelt lyrics, the singer declares freedom and hope for a brighter future, believing there must be “a cool place to live.” A poignant yet empowering song of moving on. This soulful track is a standout highlight from Hyldon JID023. Hyldon, Brazil’s highly revered vocalist, musician and producer, has partnered with Adrian Younge to create a new psychedelic soul album, HYLDON JID023. The duo, highly inspired by Hyldon’s seminal work in the ‘60s and ‘70s, revisits’ the spirit of this epoch while creating a modern-day classic. Hyldon’s unique voice and lyrical depth, combined with Younge’s innovative analog production and instrumentation, ensures this album will not be forgotten. JID023 is one of the last recordings featuring Hyldon’s long-time collaborator and friend, the late drummer Ivan “Mamao” Conti of Azymuth. #hyldon #adrianyounge #jazzisdead
