Red Hot + Rio 2: Nova Tropicalia produced by Béco Dranoff, John Carlin, and Paul Heck in collaboration with U.S. label E1 Entertainment, consists of 34 original recordings featuring unique collaborations involving over 60 international and Brazilian stars. Rio 2 is a cutting-edge tribute to the influential Tropicália movement that rocked Brazil’s cultural and political landscape in the late 60’s. In addition, Rio 2 is a 15-year celebration of the first Red Hot + Rio project released to great acclaim in 1996. Featuring world class performers such as John Legend, Caetano Veloso, Seu Jorge, Beirut, Bebel Gilberto, Of Montreal, Aloe Blacc, Marisa Monte and more, RIO 2 will create a sunny Brazilian groove by updating the sounds of the Tropicália era for a new generation of listeners.

What happened to the listing for the of Montreal track?
I tried to buy this record from the iTunes Store overseas and this is what I get: “The item you’ve requested is not currently available in the Colombian Store, but it is available in the U.S. Store. Click Change Store to view this item.” Nice to see that even for a humanitary cause the music industry is placing commercial boundaries. Way to go corporate system.
