In the few months which preceded and followed the release of Sao Paulo Confessions, we had commissioned remixes of a couple of the album's tracks: Voce Gosta (by Phil Asher) and Felicidade (by Buscemi, The Funky Lowlives and Juryman aka Ian Simmonds), which were released on vinyl only.
Apart from these two songs, the original recordings of the album had disappeared in the fire which destroyed Suba's studio and took his life. When we later asked English producers Zero dB and Bigga Bush to work on remixing Samba do Gringo Paulista, we had no option but to ask them to sample straight from the album. Their works are therefore homages rather than remixes, as they have created entirely new tracks which were inspired by (and not derived from) the original song.
Sereia, Amor d'Água is a totally new arrangement of Sereia (including partly rewritten lyrics), created and recorded by Cibelle (who sang three songs on Sao Paulo Confessions) with some of her musician friends in Sao Paulo.
Boyz From Brazil produced an entirely new version of Segredo, which they performed and recorded in Paris.
Vanjus is one of Suba's childhood friends, as is acclaimed cartoonist Zoran Janjetov who designed the cover for this album. The three of them grew up in the Yugoslavian town of Novi Sad. Vanjus' contribution to Tributo is a reconstruction of the song Tanto Desejos, for which Cibelle specially re-recorded the vocals.
Joao Parahyba, along with Cibelle, was another of Suba's close musical associates, performing all the percussion parts on SP Confessions.. JP has created a homage to Suba entitled Nightly Sins, which includes some elements taken from Pecados da Madrugada (Joao is also one of the members of legendary, recently-reformed 70's samba soul group Trio Mocotó).
We knew that up-and-coming Brazilian producer BiD (who worked a.o. with Chico Science) had been collaborating with Suba, and was in possessio....... more
