In April and May 1994, two new original songs written by Marcelo Nicchio were taken into Estúdio Anonimato in São Paulo to record what became Coitado do Próximo’s first demo tape, later duplicated in hundreds of copies for promotional distribution.

Each side of the tape carried one song: Side A: Mulher SP; Side B: Pegue o Seu Celular.

Lineup: Mario Joe (vocals), Ricá (guitar and backing vocals), Henrique (bass), Marcelo Minduim (drums) and Adriano (harmonica).

Audio & Media · 2 Demo tape · Estúdio Anonimato · 1994
Side A · Mulher SP

Preserved cassette digitization of the first demo. The original master was recorded on ADAT; this copy reflects the sonic limitations of the cassette source and digitization.

Side B · Pegue o Seu Celular

Preserved digitization from the same 1994 demo tape, kept without restorative intervention.

Archive note: the sound quality reflects the digital copy currently available. The audio has been preserved without restoration in order to retain the historical record.

Part of the footage from these sessions survives. The currently published video is titled as 1993, but the correct year of the recording is 1994.
