Description
DJ Dolores - 1 Real
This is DJ Dolores' third album, and it sees his multiple talents come to full bloom. Using once again elements of popular music from his native Brazilian Northeast, blended with dancefloor-friendly electronics, horns, and rock & dub influences, he's created these exhilarating songs which are contagiously joyful, yet based on the observation of a tough political and social subtext.
DJ Dolores won a BBC World Music Award in the ‘club global’ category

Reviews
Another fiercely contemporary exercise in globalista beat construction (Pop Matters)How many Brazilian producers reference Marx, Engels, Sartre and Lou Reed in their sleeve notes? On his third album, the DJ otherwise known as Helder Aragao de Melo continues to approach his craft of constructing dance tracks with the focus and precision of a Swiss watchmaker. (The Independent)
Playful but intense (The Observer)
From the start you're overwhelmed by the richness of DJ Dolores' trademark cultural and musical allusions. So thought-provoking that you almost feel it's churlish to dance to it (Songlines)
