"Tudo se Move", the third album from the Brazilian singer and songwriter Mona Gadelha starts with an old Carnival march, "Bloco da Solidão", written by the duo Evaldo Gouveia/Jair Amorim and recorded by Maysa and Altemar Dutra. The track was produced, arranged and played by Fernando Moura, a piano player from Rio, Fernando Moura, with percussion played by Marcos Suzano. It sounds like a Jazz tune. The record goes on with a strong influence of electronic music resources such as samplers, loops, noises, effects, texture that melts with Brazilian songs, bossa, samba, jazz and rock (played in Ballad style from the remake of A Última Guerra, from Samuel Rosa, Lô Borges and Rodrigo Leão).
Besides recording a carnival classic she also did a new version for standard Billie Holiday´s Love me or Leave, which in the Portuguese version written by Fernando Cali Pereira called Suspense, was turned into a d&b samba-song also produced by Fernando Moura. To reach the multisound environment she wanted, the Singer counted on the talent of five producers: Fernando Moura, Alexandre Fontanetti (the producer of her first cd), Alvaro Fernando (produced a few tracks from her second CD), DJ Mau Sacht, Paulo Bira and also on Italian DJ and Producer Roby J.C., who did the remix 13 th track "Saint-Denis-Ceará Panaphonic". The tracks produced by DJ and guitar player Mau Sach ("Saint-Denis-Ceará", "Na Estação" and "29 Beijos", with house groove and Brazilian percussion) brings the producer signature.
With the new CD, Mona settles her work on the contemporary MBP, mixing rhythm and styles, in an album that its full of feminine features with her fantasies, dramas, discoveries and adventures. The work is a result of her attachment with the songs and her traveling around Europe (she went twice to Midem, performed in Germany and went to Womex, in Spain).
In Paris, she met Valdo Aderaldo, a songwriter from Ceará, from whom she recorded "Saint-Denis-Ceará" (partnership with Celso Gutfreind), that became her video, one electronic diary of her trip to France, edited by the VJ and director Fabiana Prado (the same from Monas first video, Cinema Noir).
Tudo se Move, title inspired by the work of a Polonius Sociologist Zygmunt Bauman, also count on the participation great musicians taking part in the 13 tracks, such as the piano players Fernando Moura, Lelo Nazário e Jether Garothi, the percussion players Marcos Suzano e Alvaro Fernando ( producer and author of two tracks from the CD "Felicidade pra Mim" and "Escuro"), the bass players Caco Faria and Paulo Bira (producer and author of "De Onde Você Vem?", from the repertoire of Nomad, pioneer reggae band from São Paulo), the guitar-violin players Alex Fornari, Edu Gomes and Alexandre Fontanetti (producer and arranger of "A Última Guerra" and "Louca,Nua").
As a songwriter, Mona signs partnership with Moura (in "Tudo se Move" and "Noturna", one ballad lounge with French accent), Ricardo Cunha (in the unusual bossa "Louca, Nua") and Sergio Cruz (in the dance tune "Na Estação").
Since the release of her second CD (Cenas & Dramas), Mona has had own label, which has also developed into a cultural producer company, the Brazilbizz Music. Her first album, released by Movieplay had some hits played in Brazilian stations like "Cinema Noir", "Cor de Sonho" e "Imagine Nós". With the invitation to join a compilation in Spain (Músicas do Caribe e da América Latina - FNAC), the Singer started to focus also on the international market as well, performing in German cities in 2002 (She sang to 1500 people in a public space).
In her second album, "Cenas & Dramas", Mona showed maturity on in her work and a taste for electronic resources, such as the track "O Amante", acid jazz with a drumming sequence. On Tudo se Move she definately incorporates the electronic beats as a Standard for the whole Record, always having as basis, the styles that define her work like Rock, MPB and jazz.
