While most exposure to Portugese-language music here in the United States arrives via Brazil, Aline Frazão's debut from last year Clave Bantu reminds us of the rich trans-African musical experience. Frazão's own heritage is from Angola, while she currently resides in Spain. You're able to hear a rich mix of intercontinental heritage in "O Que Ela Quer" which we're featuring today. The smooth bassa nova finger picking erupts with a rhythmic Tropicaliaesque underpinning. It's an enthralling melange of styles wrought together through Aline Frazão's exquisite vocals.
