Although he enjoyed some early commercial success, Tom Z\u00e9 pursued experimental\/avant-garde musical practices (ie. the use of unusual time signatures, discordant harmonies and melodies, tape loops, street recordings, aleatory sounds, and invented instruments), constituting an alternative tradition within Tropic\u00e1lia, which may be understood as kind of \u201cside B\u201d to the more commercial \u201cside A\u201d on a vinyl record.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Detlef Diederichsen<\/strong> (Berlin)<br \/>\nShort Summer of Distortion<\/p>\n<p>On first look it might seem as though the Brazilian popular music of the rebellious year of 1968 was in perfect sync with the creations of the colleagues from the northern part of the continent and overseas. The recordings of Gilberto Gil, Caetano Veloso and Mutantes were bubbling with psychedelic guitar insanities, sound effect overkill and exalted vocals. On a closer look we find that the distorted guitars of the Tropicalists were significantly different from the majority of the contmeporary psychedelic guitar players.
