The Model

VINYL FORMAT. Now-Again announces the second single from Brazilian singer/actor Seu Jorge's Seu Jorge and Almaz album, a sultry take on Kraftwerk's 'The Model.' The record is mixed by Mario C and includes instrumentals and remixes of 'The Model' and 'Everybody Loves The Sunshine,' all of which are exclusive to this 12". This dark, soulful approach to what was once a robotic ode to a runway idol intoxicates not only because of Jorge's gruff baritone, but because of his backing band Almaz - drummer Pupillo and guitarist Lucio Maia from the stalwart Nação Zumbi; bassist and composer Antonio Pinto from the soundstages of movies like the Jorge vehicle City of God. The band came together naturally to record a song for a Walter Salles film; they enjoyed the experience so much that they recorded an entire album, free of convention, of music that inspired them.
