Sessa – Pequena Vertigem de Amor [Mexican Summer]
“Pequena Vertigem de Amor” is the third album from Sergio Sayeg, aka Sessa. Recorded on the outskirts of Sao Paulo, the album finds Sessa in a new chapter in his life. He recently became a father and suddenly he had a purpose greater than music.. Fatherhood played a role in his songwriting approach for this project. The music of Erasmo Carlo’s 1972 album “Sonhos e Memorias” also is a heavy influence as well. Evidence is found in “Bicho Lento”, filled with blissful flute arrangements courtesy of Alex Chumak (Soyuz). Sessa’s feathery vocals and gentle guitar are simply sublime. “Nome de Deus” is modal Jazz meets Samba. “Vale a Pena” is a melodic tune aided by warm female vocal harmonies. Sessa incorporates a Suette electric piano, an obscure Brazilian keyboard comparable to the fender rhodes. Cecilia Goes, Lau Ra, Ina & Paloma Mecozzi are the vocalists who are at Sessa’s side throughout the album. Sessa stretches the boundaries of traditional Brazilian music with inspiration from his soul music influences. Unlike “Grandeza” which is delightful in its own right, the inclusion of piano and synths here takes this record to another level.

Gabriel de Rosa is a native of Cruz Alta, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. With his latest release “Cacofonia” he serenades us with his feathery voice and traditional bossa nova rhythms. de Rosa shines on “Seu Joao”, a warm bossa tune filled with piano melodies and engaging percussion. “O Pacto” is a stripped down sublime tune enhanced by de Rosa’s velvet vocals. “Menino Indio” is another highlight with warm fender rhodes that will evoke images of a warm Summer afternoon in Brazil. de Rosa has been a member of LA based Stones Throw since 2022. “E o que a casa oferece”, released in 2023 is also impressive. If you like traditional bossa nova aligned with gorgeous vocals to match then this is the record for you.
