Originally released in 2003, Contrasts quickly became one of Valle’s most in demand, with tracks like the triumphant “Parabéns” (sampled by Childish Gambino, covered by Tom Misch and remixed by Misa Negra) and bossa beach classic “Agua de Coco”, both becoming fan favourites. Contrasts encapsulated Valle’s ever evolving musical vision, bringing together samba, baião, bossa pop, broken beat, house, trip-hop and more, on one era-defining record. After 22 years, Contrasts is finally here as a double LP reissue, with the original mix of “Valeu” and “My Nightingale” making it onto the vinyl edition for the first time.
