Description

'Pretaluz' is the debut album of Angolan artist Waldemar Bastos, originally released in 1998. Produced by Arto Lindsay and David Byrne, this album is now available on vinyl to commemorate its 25th anniversary. 'Pretaluz', meaning 'blacklight' in Portuguese, serves as an elegiac response to the Angolan Civil War, blending elements of fado, semba, zouk, and morna into unforgettable songs. With dramatic pauses and dynamic vibrato over subtle nylon-string guitar rhythms, Bastos's songs convey profound sorrow and beauty. This limited edition is considered one of the best-sounding records on the Luaka Bop label.
