Various Artists - Candomble: Sacred Rhythms In Brazil - Vinyl

The double vinyl compilation (also available digitally) brings together a rich and expansive selection of recordings, including archival material captured between 1985 and 1988 at Ilê Axé Opô Aganjú, a Candomblé terreiro in Lauro de Freitas, alongside newly commissioned works by DJ Anderson do Paraiso, Xexa, Felinto, DJ Sandrinho, Jonas Albrecht and many others.

Sells with companion book. This bilingual book, part of the project Candomblé: Sacred Rhythms in Brazil, brings together a rich and carefully curated selection of materials, including archival documentation alongside newly commissioned texts and artistic contributions. Through historical research, critical essays, and visual documentation, it seeks to honour this tradition by tracing its historical foundations while offering a critical and artistic reflection on its contemporary transformations and future trajectories. By placing past records in dialogue with present-day perspectives, the publication becomes both an archive and a space of reflection on the enduring and evolving nature of Candomblé.
