On April 18th 2019 a journalist from Piauí in Brazil posted a question in a closed Facebook group I follow called Brazil By Music. Dea Nunes was looking for information about a record by Guilherme Coutinho & Grupo Stalo. I always read the posts in the group but this time the cover of the record that Dea was looking for stopped me mid-scroll. I clicked to play the YouTube link. I was totally confused. As a listened and looked at the distinctive yellow cover I thought ‘Hey, Kassin and the Mitch & Mitch guys have made some kind of throwback record they haven’t told me about.’ Why did I think this? Because despite the vintage aura there were elements in the song Atalaia that sounded too futuristic. But more than anything it was the cover. Mitch & Mitch had just released a 10” album with a cover that looked so similar it must have been at least influenced by this Coutinho album. But, while I was listening to the song Kassin posted a comment in the group saying he’d never heard of this album. I pinged Macio from Mitch & Mitch (who also designs the Mitch artwork) and asked if he’d been inspired by this cover. ‘Nope, I never heard of it,’
