Oma Nata

Producer of Dance

Oma Nata is a mysterious Portuguese producer living in Hamburg. After crossing boundaries in several genres in other musical projects he started Oma Nata to explore a more moody, vibrant and exotic sound. The influences in these three tunes on this EP span from Latin American to West African jazz, blended perfectly with exceptional classic House beat-making, in such way that it doesn't simply come across like patchwork, but a homogenous flow of moody, soulful music. "Baiana" has Cape Verde and Brazil mixed in an unexpected ethereal dance-floor burner that finds its beauty in apparent simplicity. "El Seguidor" is a perfect example of the best way to carefully mix Jazz, South American fusion and House music without sacrificing any of each influence's integrity. We can surely recommend this track even for the stiffest hips. "Sozinho" takes Hamburg to Rio's Carnaval with its irresistible deep Samba influenced beats. Instant summer anywhere. This is the first Oma Nata release, and there couldn't be a better debut for Forbidden Cut's own debut.
