WELCOME! BIEN VENIDO! TETINE ARE BRUNO VERNER AND ELIETE MEJORADO

OUT NOW !!! TETINE - FROM A FOREST NEAR YOU

We're happy to announce the release of Tetine's new album From A Forest Near You this Monday, Feb 8th in all good stores!

From A Forest Near You is Tetine’s 10th artist album & also a luminous DIY collection of tropical mutant punk funk/ new wave & experimental electro-pop fused with minimal cosmic dark-disco.

Buy here!

'If this is what's going on down our local copse then we really need to spend more time with nature. Brazilian boy-girl duo Tetine's tenth album ( although only their second on worldwide release), veers from compelling tropicalia- flanged, punk-funk to dark, minimal, cosmic disco (Revolver), while the pinging, 80's-synth-sample enabled 'Yr Daughter Lies' sounds like something a DJ could spin down the Dalek disco'. Kim Taylor Bennet, Time Out London

"Always inventive, never boring!" Music Week

"The off-kilter, mutated funk, electro and sound manipulation that comprises this inventive and gravely album is an absolute treat." Joe Shooman, PLAN B

"Ingested with their history in mind, ‘Let Your X's Be Y's’ feels as playful as it is relaxed - soundtracking an artistic project that wears its authenticity, confidence and continuing need for experimentation proudly on its sleeve." Fat Planet

A HISTÓRIA DA GARÇA 12'' SINGLE ON SOUL JAZZ RECORDS

"A História da Garça" draws more on the latter sound than the former, with a slight, almost menacing down-tempo groove that cuts swathes of unease before breaking into a clean 80's DX-7 synth lead that evokes the mid-period sound of Cabaret Voltaire.

Though the gurgling bassline is cold Northern minimalism at its finest, the drums are a pure shot of baile funk. A startling combination of influences and ideas that I'm still working out. Definitely one to watch." Mallory O' Donnel, Stylus Magazine.
