''Sei'' ("I know") is the seventh album by Brazilian band Nando Reis e os Infernais. It was recorded in Seattle, Washington, with the help of producer Jack Endino, who had already produced four studio albums for Titãs, Nando Reis' ex-band. According to Nando, Endino is the "right guy" to record Os Infernais' sound. It was nominated for the Latin Grammy Awards of 2013 in the Best Brazilian Rock Album category. == Background and recording == ''Sei'' is Reis' first independent album, after Universal Music Group refused to renew the deal they had with Reis. According to him, the process of going indie is irreversible.〔 Also, he stated:〔 Reis also stated he didn't understand the mechanics of the recording companies, "such as the profit margin, with albums being sold for R$30,00 (US$15,00) and almost an year later they cost R$5,00." According to Nando, "Lamento Realengo" was inspired by a apparently pirate DVD he bought, in which Bob Marley and The Wailers were practicing in 1973.〔 "I got crazy (the DVD ). This ended in 'Lamento Realengo', which is half samba, half reggae. I even recorded with a nylon acoustic guitar, which I haven't played for some 15 years!"〔 The single "Sei" is currently being used at the soundtrack of Rede Globo's telenovela ''Lado a Lado''.〔(Post at the band's official Facebook page )〕 The opening track "Pré-Sal", his favorite song on the album,〔 describes things related to Reis' childhood and had its name suggested by his sister. According to him, he gathered his siblings in his house and showed them the songs he would record. His sister then suggested that the opening track should be called "pre-salt" due to it being deep and prior to consciousness.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sei (album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
