Whereas Dora’s first solo EP, Vento de Beirada, was a leap of faith, \u003cem\u003ePique \u003c\/em\u003esees her soaring as one of Brazil’s standout stars, \u003cstrong\u003eemboldened, emphatic but ever elegant.\u003c\/strong\u003e Building bridges between past and present, it’s a \u003cstrong\u003efunkier, more groove-based affair,\u003c\/strong\u003e weaved together with those signature, slower, \u003cstrong\u003ecelestial tracks\u003c\/strong\u003e. Touching on \u003cstrong\u003edisco, MPB, soul, R\u0026amp;B and jazz\u003c\/strong\u003e, the album is enriched with an indie pop aesthetic courtesy of fellow Brazilian star and \u003cstrong\u003eco-producer, Ana Frango Elétrico. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith an \u003cstrong\u003eethereal, enveloping \u003c\/strong\u003eair few can match, Dora’s gift shines through both the \u003cstrong\u003eserene and the spirited songs \u003c\/strong\u003econtained within. The blissful, sun-soaked ‘Não Vou Te Esquecer’ opens, before the funk-fuelled, feel-good ‘Venha Comigo’ and ‘Sim, Não.’ give a glimpse of the creativity bursting from the production partnership between Dora and Ana Frango Elétrico. Elsewhere, the album reclines into hazy lean-back realms via ‘A Melhor Saída’ and ‘Petricor’, virtuoso jazz funk in the form of ‘VW Blue’ and radiant MPB through the album’s title track ‘Pique’.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe drumming is tight, fresh and swung, the horns and strings deftly arranged, as funk-driven basslines and strutting guitars mesh with playful production touches that give an added vibrancy to the record. It is an \u003cstrong\u003ealbum that exhibits every side of Dora\u003c\/strong\u003e and one she has been involved in from the ground up, from the songwriting, singing, arrangement and production to booking the studio time and sourcing the artwork designer, \u003cstrong\u003eMaria Cau Levy.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn exchange of musical ideas powers every great scene and Rio’s contemporary landscape is no different - a family of interconnected musicians and friends that collaborate on each other’s productions. \u003cem\u003ePique\u003c\/em\u003e is graced by a wealth of these leading Brazilian lights including her \u003cstrong\u003eBala Desejo\u003c\/strong\u003e bandmates \u003cstrong\u003eLucas Nunes, Julia Mestre \u003c\/strong\u003eand \u003cstrong\u003eZé Ibarra\u003c\/strong\u003e, as well as \u003cstrong\u003eGuilherme Lirio, Alberto Continentino\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eTom Veloso\u003c\/strong\u003e to name just a handful. This exchange crosses generations merging tradition with modernity. In a full circle moment, Dora’s parents \u003cstrong\u003ePaula and Jaques Morelenbaum\u003c\/strong\u003e, who featured in countless recordings from Tom Jobim's \u003cstrong\u003eNova Banda\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eRyuichi Sakamoto to Gal Costa \u003c\/strong\u003eand\u003cstrong\u003e Gilberto Gil\u003c\/strong\u003e, join on the album through backing vocals and arrangement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs Dora explains, “Pique was an \u003cstrong\u003ealbum made in motion \u003c\/strong\u003eand ended up being about just that. From the beginning, it was an album that sought to build new textures that are part of the sound landscape I envision ahead. And from these colours and textures, it builds bridges between a more traditional universe, sonically and poetically speaking, and \u003cstrong\u003ea new perspective on songs.\u003c\/strong\u003e”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePique sees Dora embrace a freedom through fresh forms, showcasing the depth and diversity of her creative artistry. An infinitely listenable release that nods to Brazilian greats like\u003cstrong\u003e Gal Costa, Banda Black Rio\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eLincoln Olivetti\u003c\/strong\u003e, fused with the indie pop edge of Ana’s production. The result is truly unique and sure to be a future Brazilian classic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"100%\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-dg9UH9j2fo?si=NYZ209FSrI9HWm7Q\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e \u003ciframe width=\"100%\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Jy0vefnaBaY?si=YgKiHY21i2RRmUAa\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dora Morelenbaum","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl LP","offer_id":58738338365824,"sku":"MRBLP275","price":11.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Limited Edition Red Vinyl LP","offer_id":58738338398592,"sku":"MRBLP275R","price":11.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":58738338431360,"sku":"MRBCD275","price":6.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0972\/1384\/1792\/files\/MRBLP275--Dora-Morelenbaum_Pique_Shopify_Square.jpg?v=1787213376","url":"https:\/\/vinylvers.com\/products\/pique-vinyl-lp-cd","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
