Following the logic that the biography and discography of any artist is closely linked, our partnership with Bernardo Campos is almost symbiotic, since Bruce Leroys‘ first gig in Rio de Janeiro Bernardo has had an important presence in our career, one of the most influential and respected DJs of the Rio scene in the last 20 years, curator of the main events and venues of the wonderful city, 50% of Nu-Azeite, label manager and our friend since before Bruce Leroys, our partnership in this release consolidates all the various layers of common interests both personally and artistically and professionally.
The track Pleasure was brought to us by Bê already very close to the final aesthetic, we made punctual changes in the melody, the beats, basses and synths to give it our signature sound without de-characterizing the musical idea that we had already enjoyed immediately.
To enhance the release we thought of looking for a remixer who would be emerging then, and that we both admired, some names came up, but none sounded more relevant at that moment, we are talking about 2021, than the Colombian Felipe Gordon. With releases on many of our favorite labels, such as Local Talk, Heist, Toy Tonics, Razor-N-Tape, and many others, we all agreed that the new Latin American Deep Jazzy House star would be a great asset for the Pleasure EP.
Felipe Gordon’s version came with all the signature that a remix can have, tape saturation, organic bass, jazzy/funky spice, sweeps and space disco synths… We believe that Felipe Gordon represents very well the quality standard that the label intends and projects, in our vision, a relevant future for the label.
