MARCOS VALLE is for sure one of the major songwriters of MPB (Brazilian Popular Music). As author of more than three hundred songs, with music that has been recorded by artists like Elis Regina, Tim Maia, Roberto Carlos, Sarah Vaughan, Chicago, Dizzy Gillespie, with participation of Paulo Sérgio Valle, Ruy Guerra, Eumir Deodato, João Donato, and most recently recording with Lazão e Dagama, members of the group Cidade Negra.
Marcos has had big success on the European dance floors since 1990 with both his original recordings and the re-recordings and re mixings of his music by other artists and by DJ’s, not only in Europe but also in Japan and China. The CD Nova Bossa Nova, produced by Marcos Valle and London’s DJ Joe Davis, emerged from this music. Marcos Valle’s music also caught the attention of the
American film director Brad Anderson who used Brazilian music as theme songs in his awarded film Next Stop Wonderland, where two of Valle’s most popular dance floor music “Batucada surgiu” and “Os Grilos” were included. On the other side of the world, in China, “Os Grilos” reached 3rd place on the list of the most played songs in 1998.
On July 1999, besides performing once again in Sweden, England and Denmark, he took part on Roskilde Festival, one of the biggest music festivals in Europe.
Marcos Valle is a Brazilian music icon and is frequently invited to represent Brazil on many events around the world, like “Brazil – 500 years” celebrating, taking Bossa Nova to Montreal, on a concert organized by Brazilian Consulate in Canada.
In the year 2000 Marcos recorded his recent CD Escape, also for the English label Farout, continuing his career in Europe. The releasing was on march 2001, with a tour that included Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Germany, England and Spain, which received incredible reviews, the Straight No Chaser called him “President Valle”, and Time Out said “In case Marcos had composed in English, he would be between the four most popular composers of all time, Irvin Berlin, Burt Bacharach and Leonard Bernstein”.
