Reissued on vinyl LP in 2017 by Optimo Music's "Selva Discos" (headed by Optimo's Keith McIvor), it has been hard to find for the past few years — but now, seven years on, MR BONGO happily brings us a fresh vinyl reissue. A gem of a hidden treasure: monochrome, industrial and experimental yet shot through with an organic saudade-tinged samba feel, its soft, ambient groove is coolly blissful. (Despite the shared name, this is not the female singer Maria Rita, daughter of Brazilian MPB icon Elis Regina.) Physical release only (vinyl & CD). (Original Japanese text by COMPUMA)
