Ivan 'Mamão' Conti
Poison Fruit

Brazilian drumming legend Ivan ‘Mamão’ Conti has been experimenting and innovating for the last half a century. As one-third of cult Rio jazz-funk trio Azymuth, Mamão was at the root of the group’s ‘samba doido’ (crazy samba) philosophy, bringing jazz influences and spacey electronics to traditional samba. Poison Fruit is his first album in over twenty years and his first on vinyl since 1984, save for his dope collaborative piece with hip-hop royalty Madlib under the shared moniker ‘Jackson Conti’. Expect rootsy, electronic samba and tripped-out jazz, beats and dance music. Comes on RSD special splattered vinyl with 2 unreleased tracks on a bonus 7"!
