Dr. Sabe Tudo INFO With two critically acclaimed albums and a swathe of award-winning production turns under their belt, Ana Frango Elétrico present their most confident and accomplished work to date: Me Chama De Gato Que Eu Sou Sua / Call Me They That I™m Yours. Gesturing to a tradition of Brazilian boogie music, but bouncing with modern pop ebullience, the album sees the Rio artist evolve from a captivating upstart into a surefooted scene leader in full stride. At just 25, the prolific artist and producer has already garnered worldwide admirers. Ana™s sophomore Little Electric Chicken Heart was nominated at the 2020 Latin Grammys. Since then, standalone singles have received the WME ˜Best Music Producer™ Award, recognising Ana™s deep passion for music production  a passion which has led to collaborations with nascent Brazilian stars Dora Morelenbaum, Illy and Sophia Chablau. Most recently, Ana was hailed for their co-production of Bala Desejo™s 2022 Latin Grammy-winning album Sim Sim Sim. The new album finds Ana at their most assured and full voiced. Album opener šElectric Fish›, with funky bass and shimmering backing vocals, sets a buoyant tone. šBoy of Stranger Things› is its bombastic counterpart. It™s the grooviest Ana has ever sounded. And the most brazen. Lyrically, where Ana was once oblique on personal matters, they are now forthright  lucidly exploring their gender identity, citing accessible cultural references, and often singing in English. šI started this album in 2021 with the intention of showing, in means of sound, understandings and feelings about queer love, subjectively exposing myself,› the non-binary artist states  before qualifying that though šfeeling was its driving force, the album is really about musical production.› šThere™s so many references to different decades,› Ana explains. šSeventies drums with eighties processing „ Going back, getting beyond „ Testing the limits of organic sounds›. Characteristically playful, on Me Chama, Ana takes vivid and rewarding detours through funk-inflected R&B (šDela›) and art pop (šDr. Sabe Tudo›). šNuvem Vermelha› is a cinematic chanson with lush strings that recalls Arthur Verocai. Then, šCoisa Maluca› loafs with the indie insouciance of Canadian slacker Mac Demarco. Later, šLet's Go Before Again›, is a full-on drum machine workout evocative of Stereolab. šEven if people don't find my own references here, they'll find theirs,› observes Ana. šMaybe that™s this record™s biggest goal.›
