Irmão Victor • Mariposàrio
IRMÃO VICTOR est le projet d’un brillant multi-instrumentiste brésilien, Marco A. Benvegnù. « Des symphonies pop complexes en miniature.» sont les termes. du magazine SHINDIG! pour décrire sa musique. « MARIPOSARIO » est’ son 4e album paru le 30 novembre 2020. Plus pop.et probablement son meilleur. « A real discovery, this one! » Ce n’est pas nous qui le disons mais le magazine anglais UNCUT qui a écrit une critique en avant-première avec une note de 8/10.
IRMÃO VICTOR is the project of Marco A. Benvegnù, a 26-year-old multi-instrumentalist living in Brazil. He melds into Tropicália the echoes of 50-year adventures in pop music and modern sounds. UK magazine SHINDIG! described his songs as “intricate pop symphonies in miniature”. “Mariposário” is his new LP from 2020, and probably his best. It’s not us saying that, it’s UK magazine UNCUT who rates it 8/10.
IRMÃO VICTOR – Mariposário (Pop Supérette, 2020) “Soucieux, expérimental, les yeux grands ouverts – c’est le rêve post-Tropicália. Mené par l’auteur-compositeur Marco A. Benvegnù, le groupe brésilien Irmão Victor a lentement, tranquillement, sorti une petite série d’excellents albums de pop expérimentale, dont Mariposário est à la fois le dernier et le meilleur. Leur héritage pourrait vous faire penser à la bossa nova et à Tropicália – soyez-en sûrs, mais seulement jusqu’à un certain point, car il y a encore plus de choses qui se passent dans les chansons fascinantes et complexes de Benvegnù. “Tristinha” enfile une mélodie exquise dans des vagues de guitare glissando; “Qual è a opinião…” plonge rapidement dans un surréalisme pop chatoyant; “Cruela de Vil” est un sashay pop mélancolique des années 60. Une vraie découverte, celui-ci.” Note : 8/10 (Jon Dale, UNCUT)

IRMÃO VICTOR – Mariposário (Pop Supérette, 2020) “Wistful, experimental, wide-eyed- this is post-Tropicália dreaming Led by singer-songwriter Marco A. Benvegnù, Brazilian group Irmão Victor have been slowly, quietly, releasing a small clutch of excellent experimental pop albums, of which Mariposário is both the latest and the best yet. Their heritage might have you thinking bossa nova and Tropicália – go with that, but only to a certain extent, as there’s still more happening in Benvegnù’s compellingly complex songs. “Tristinha” strands a luscious melody within waves of glissando guitar scrunch; “Qual è a opinião…” quickly slides into slippery pop surrealism; “Cruela de Vil” is a melancholy’60s pop sashay. A real discovery, this one.” Rating : 8/10 (Jon Dale, UNCUT)
