"Movimento Paralelo Vol.1" is the first installment of an ongoing compilation by the collective, multidisciplinary label and pioneer local online radio Metanol FM, walking through different music spectrums in remote collaborations – from jazz to acid, breakbeat, and ghettotech, crossing the paths of Brazilian funk, electro, and techno under an experimental narrative.
With 13 tracks between skits and authorial jams, composed by Akin Deckard, Guillerrrmo, Letricia, Ramenzoni, SysEx, and Ramenzoni, "Movimento Paralelo Vol.1" was sculpted around solo sax sessions recorded by jazzist member Dharma Jhaz, and got remotely produced by the artists involved as an attempt to keep music inspiration alive in these lockdown times. The compilation brings an additional secret folder as part of its content, with original sample banks, music outtakes, subversive literature, a self-built drum rack for Ableton Live, and a video mix by the audiovisual duo TAO, composed as a visual remix of the release. To unlock it, the listeners will need to crack a code inputted between the cover and track names.
At the same time, Metanol soon will be launching a related open-source music community on Discord, focused on collective mentoring, sharing tools, and extended collaborations as a way to promote stimulus for independent artists on the path of their artistic journey. As they say, "this is our call-to-action for the future of the Brazilian electronic music scene", working together on the basis of discussing ideas to build a supportive network for unknown, unnoted, and upcoming artists.
