From shop to trash Gotta produce, gotta consume No need to use, just gotta acquire From shop to trash From trash to sea Gotta produce, gotta consume No need to use, just gotta acquire Just gotta acquire From shop to trash One to go, two to come Never happy with what you got And every day dreams go Down the drain without reason Near the foot of Cardinal I met Beatriz She told me she’d bought All the little Christmas gifts I told her, sweetheart, I don’t know why you’re happy Before Carnaval ends All the shit is in the bin From shop to trash From trash to sea From shop to trash Stuffing Yemanjá’s home ——————

Whoa, mom, the sun will rise Who can’t stand it? Play the zabumba, man! A ziriguidum, a talacotaco, a porogodó It echoes from the hollow – what? Kinectics of the body – what? From the lysosome Pulsing! Pulsing! Pulsing! Show us the horn, man! Who? Me? In a porogodó I’m in a ziriguidum, a talacotaco a porogodó Whoa, mom, the sun will rise Who can’t stand it?

The indian doubles as a tramp Black doubles as a thief From the tourist in the favela, Hitting cooking pots in mansions The pastor congressman laundering millions Indian, fagot, black and poor Only seen as subversion Trivialized, broken Sofa and TV from the cradle Shaping your cowardice Successful businessman Do not queue for the breadline Trivialized, broken Equality and freedom only in the constitution Successful businessman do not queue for the breadline Falsified document, CPF, birth certificate Security, driver, guard dog with depression Gives allowance to a judge, gives banana to the lion Sofa and TV from the cradle Shaping your cowardice Trivialized, broken Trivialized, trivialized

about

"Saxcretino is a 1.2m-long hose with a saxophone mouthpiece at one end and the upper portion of a PET bottle in the other. Saxcretino is also my nickname, my way of playing the saxophone and the title of the EP. Without commitment to technical perfection, aesthetic purity or specific sound, the 5 tracks express the combination of unconventional instruments and traditional instruments of Western music in a popular language with unusual rhythmic cells. The microtonal instruments used in the recording were made by me with material found in the trash and are inspired by the non-noble instruments de-composer Anton Walter Smetak." (André Borges)

released August 18, 2016

Saxophonist, microtonalist, performer and sound artist - Since 1992, creating microtonal instruments and performing in collaboration with Theatre, Dance and Circus Companies, Video works and Music groups in Brazil and abroad. Living in the U.K since 2004, Andre graduated in Music and Visual Arts at Brighton University in 2011, engaging in solo performances exploring internal body sounds combined with Arduino technology since then. Now, the artist is releasing his first solo work to the music industry – the EP “saxcretino” through brazilian label Sê-Lo!.

Saxcretino was designed and conducted between April and May 2016, excerpts except "Coming back in 5" and "1Ziriguid1", which were started in May 2015. The songs were composed, arranged and produced by me. The mixing and mastering were done at the Hidden-Cam studios (Brighton & Hove - United Kingdom) with the help of Cameron Devlin (technical) during the first week of June and finalized on August 2, 2016.

Features : Nancy Viégas (vocals on "1Ziriguid1) and Fernando Machado playing guitar in "Samba de Vento.
