FLEE is a cultural engineering platform dedicated to the documentation and enhancement of hybrid cultures. They dive into forgotten musical phenomena and invite contemporary artists to revisit songs from various periods and genres.
For most of the 20th century, Portugal’s economy has relied on fishery and an exploitative canning industry arising from it. To endure their hardship and coordinate their work, fishermen sang.
Leva Leva: Litany of the Portuguese fishermen documents the particular culture of the Portuguese coast, through a vinyl compilation containing undisclosed original recordings of fishermen’s songs and contemporary compositions by artists Filipa Cordeiro, Joăo Pais Filipe, Nandele, Romain Baudoin and S1m0nc3ll0.
