News from Krakatoa,

Ever since the big volcanic explosion in 1883, Krakatoa has taken a while to re-devolop its cities and bars and red light district. In other words, life here can get pretty boring, with little to do but open our windows and watch the magma flowing to the sea.

Things got a little better since FedEx started dropping packages in the early 80s. In these packages, I have received large quantities of Brazilian Music, from the traditional Bossa Nova to incredibly talented contemporary musicians. I have decided that, since the volcano on the Island is still active and a new eruption is imminent, other people should have access to this collection before it is too late and all my music ends up in ashes (literally in my case).

This site has no commercial interest whatsoever, we only wish to disseminate great quality music to a broader audience outside our tiny Island.

Please enjoy responsibly :)
