Moda de viola, sample pop, saudade-hop and aura phonk live side by side in the same catalogue.
Moda de viola
Brothers from rural Goiás, Anatálio leads on viola and first voice; Sábia, Joaquim's childhood nickname, answers on acoustic guitar and harmony. Together, they turn family memories and the cerrado into new moda de viola songs.

Sample pop
Zeca Pixel turns everyday sounds from Goiás into sample pop: Brazilian funk drums, arrocha swing, digital fragments and a bright voice that sounds as though it escaped from a phone message.

Saudade-hop
Seerp turns the distance between Brazil and the Netherlands into saudade-hop: instrumental beats, bossa and MPB harmony, nylon-string guitar, Rhodes and rain against the window.

Aura phonk
VULTO is a masked figure in Brazilian aura phonk, built from distorted 808s, melodic cowbell, echoes of baile and a cold Portuguese voice.

The idea
Pequi is a fruit whose colour, aroma and flavour are impossible to mistake. Pequi Tape was founded with the same intention: to release music with personality from the first second. The label connects references from Brazil's cerrado to contemporary sounds without forcing its artists into a single shape.
