Sthlm Bossanova Quartet – Deusa (Vinil 180g, LP)

With “Deusa,” the Sthlm Bossanova Quartet captures the timeless flow of Brazilian bossa nova with the utmost presence and authenticity! “Deusa” was recorded on March 6 and 7, 2025, at Atlantis Studios in Stockholm. If this recording studio doesn’t ring a bell, you’ve missed a piece of music history, because this is where the legendary band ABBA recorded all their hits – at least until 1978, when they opened Polar Studio. But it gets even better, because “Deusa” was recorded live, on 2-track 1/4-inch tape – with no safety net. In other words: no cuts, no overdubs. With “Deusa,” producer Eric Palmcrantz and sound engineer Niclas Lindström deliver a prime example of the open and dynamic sound that only a fully analog recording can achieve. The combination of the direct recording process and the distinctive sound of Atlantis Studios – familiar from ABBA’s songs – is simply magical!

We are delighted to offer “Deusa” exclusively for Europe. The LP, limited to 500 copies and hand-numbered, was pressed at Pallas in Germany on 180-gram vinyl and cut at 33 RPM.
