+-------------------------------[Release Notes]------------------------------+
| |
| Born in the Washington DC Metro Area, the birthplace of Quiet Storm, |
| Tee Cardaci is a Rio de Janeiro-based digger and DJ whose research and |
| writing on rare & obscure Brazilian music has appeared in publications |
| such as "DIG Magazine" and "Aquarium Drunkard". |
| |
| "Tempestade Quieta 2" (literally "Quiet Storm" in Portuguese), is the |
| 2nd installment of an imagined Quiet Storm pirate radio transmission |
| that took place in Rio sometime in the early 90s, picking up where the |
| first left off but diving even deeper into the world of obscure |
| Brazilian slow jams and synth-heavy, soulful grooves that all bare the |
| hallmarks of the quiet storm radio format. Limited edition of 100 hand |
| numbered tapes. |

| THE BACK STORY: |
| |
| Dressed sharply in his clean white suit and matching loafers, the |
| phantom broadcaster climbs out onto his roof as he does every Saturday |
| night at this time to secure his antenna in the location in which he's |
| determined provides the best coverage. As he climbs back into his |
| apartment through the window, he approaches his makeshift setup, pours |
| himself a whisky, flips on the transmitter as the clock strikes |
| midnight and leans into the mic. Once again, the Voz da Madrugada |
| (voiced here by Planet Hemp's BNegao) is on the air. |
| |
| Slow sexy tempos, slick production, liberal use of reverb, a penchant |
| for sax solos, slight jazz influences, a heavy reliance on synths and |
| an eschewing of social and political commentary in favor of romantic |
| themes. These are the hallmarks of Quiet Storm, a style of mood music |
| birthed on Howard University radio in Washington DC in 1976. While the |
| Quiet Storm format never existed, per se, in Brazil, this selection of |
| songs shows that it certainly could have. The songs featured here are |
| forgotten b-sides to barely remembered singles, deep cuts off obscure |
| albums generally skipped over by diggers and DJ's in favor of the more |
| dancefloor-oriented tracks and, in many cases, privately pressed |
| efforts that you may likely only ever hear on this tape. |
