The Sounds of VTech / DJ Nuts – Arthur Verocai Mix 
Arthur Verocai has composed and arranged for such giants as Jorge Ben, Gal Costa and Leny Andrade. But hiphop heads know him for his often sampled (see Ludacriss, MF Doom and Lil Brother) self titled solo album. Considered the holy grail of Brazilian crate digging, i.e. nigh on impossible to find in Brazil itself, “Arthur Verocai” (Continental, 1972) is a great mixture of Tropicalia, jazz funk and soul. You can find it on the sharity blogs with a quick poke around.
Rightly named THE expert on Verocai, DJ Nuts was comissioned to put together this mix of arrangements and compositions by the great man who was recently paid homage to in the Timeless series of concerts. Stretch out in your hammock, because this is classy stuff indeed.
