DESCRIPTION:
Vocal Nu Jazz, With Latin & Soulful Flava's - Kokoroko announce Tempos Difíceis Sempre Passam, a new remix EP reimagining tracks from their acclaimed album Tuff Times Never Last through the lens of some of Brazil's most exciting contemporary artists.
Translating the album's title into Portuguese, Tempos Difíceis Sempre Passam reflects both the enduring message at the heart of the original record and the creative dialogue between Kokoroko's expansive musical world and Brazil's rich, genre-defying music scene. The four-track collection brings together a handpicked group of artists whose individual approaches blur the boundaries between a variety of genres and contemporary Brazilian sounds.
To be released digitally and on limited vinyl, the EP also sees the return of acclaimed artist Luci Pina, whose artwork for Tuff Times Never Last is reimagined for this new chapter, creating a visual thread between the original album and its Brazilian counterpart.
Leading the announcement is Never Lost (Luedji Luna Remix), available now on all digital platforms. The celebrated Brazilian singer-songwriter brings her unmistakable warmth and emotive vocal sensibility to the track, offering a beautifully understated reinterpretation that deepens the song's themes of hope, resilience and togetherness.
Completing the EP are three further remixes from across Brazil's vibrant musical landscape. Onome of Kokoroko joins forces with acclaimed guitarist Nyron Higor for a richly textured rework of Da Du Dah, while producer Aleh Ferreira delivers a rhythm-driven reinterpretation of the same track. Closing the collection, Bruno Berle transforms Closer To Me with his signature blend of intimate songwriting, Brazilian groove and experimental pop sensibilities.
Together, the remixes offer fresh perspectives on Tuff Times Never Last, extending the album's spirit of optimism while celebrating the creative connections between London and Brazil.
Kokoroko smash down new music barriers with the fresh 'Tempos Dificeis Sempre Passam' EP, a four-tracker companion to last year's Tuff Times Never Last LP, translated into Portuguese and handed to a clutch of Brazilian artists for reinterpretation. That lot includes Luedji Luna, luring 'Never Lost' to gentler corners, and Bruno Berle, who closes out 'Closer To Me' in his own relatively intimate register. Meanwhile, two versions of the LP standout 'Da Du Dah' appear, first from Kokoroko's own percussionist Onome Edgeworth and guitarist Nyron Higor, then a second version from Brazilian producer Aleh Ferreira.
