Belgium-based band Ão, consisting of singer Brenda Corijn, guitarrist Siebe Chau, producer Jolan Decaestecker and percussionist Bert Peyffers, share their brand new single Sorte, a hauntingly beautiful piece of music out now on Mayway Records.  Ão are known for blending Afro-Portuguese and South American sounds and rhythms with subtle electronica touches and Sorte (Luck in English) is a beautiful example of their eclectic, multi-cultural sonority. Brenda Corijn's enchanting fadista vocals sounds like a siren drawing us deeper into their storytelling and creating a magical and intimate atmosphere. I am very fond of the "saudade" touches and melancholy that rings with a sense of unworldly beauty in the face of sadness. Accompanying Brenda's hypnotic vocals we have delicate acoustic guitar strums nicely intertwined with subtle electronica elements and percussive rhythms that together create a warm, intimate atmosphere perfect for an introspective, laid-back day home alone!
