Hugo Fattoruso — the central figure in OPA, Uruguay's most important group, known to rare groove fans for "Magic Time" produced by Airto Moreira — has become a special presence in Japan too, thanks to the recent reappraisal of South American music, the popularity of Uruguayan candombe, and repeated Japanese tours with Tomohiro Yahiro and Rey Tambor as DOS ORIENTALES. Now he delivers a new album on Far Out. He even performs GOLDEN WINGS, the finest of OPA's classics! Unison and polyrhythm. There's a sonic care that never showboats, an electronic sense of floating, a magical feel for groove, and a wonderfully deep, unhurried playing that draws you into a world of sound. The sound magic of Hugo & OPA is alive and well! (Original Japanese text by Saito)
