Principe Schallplatten & CDs

Review: The dust has had only weeks to settle on her album Nao Fales Nela Que A Mentes that landed last month but Nidia is back with four more essentials. More direct, firm and club-focused than her last release, each of these batida bruisers hits with a jagged, raw funk. "Chef" cooks up the drama with clipped laser sounds and trappy elements around the percussive rhythm, "Hard" is all about the synth brass and carnival energy, "Jam" hits with a trance twist while the finale "Nunun" closes on the tense hypnotic signature she's really made a name for herself with... Just wait for that euphoric breakdown and feel the release. Crucial.
