Brazuca ! Ten Brazilian Tales You Don´t Know Yet ! Compiled by Tahira

When people talk about new Brazilian music in Europe and America, most of the time they come up with terms like Brazilian Drum´n Bass or Baile Funk, but in the last 3 years a lot things have changed in the Brazilian music scene. There is a new community of musicians doing different stuff; trying to do something fresh.

That is what this compliations is about: it represents the new wave of Brazilian musicians. New people. New blood. Unknown artists that the current Brazilian market does not recognize, but just as talented—if not more—than main stream Brazilian artists. Brazil’s independent scene is very good and growing with articulate and innovative musicians who have learned to channel the rich and varried musical traditions of Brazil into a raw, modern sound influenced by European and American music trends.

This diverse compilation is a sampleing of the raw talent of this young and fresh brazilian scene. Some of these tracks have traditional influences; others do not. But the focus is to represent good music. That’s it!

Here you can listen to off beat tracks as Axial, TRZ + Tahira; jazz crossovers like Lavoura and Bruno Morais; the Downtempo beats of Hip Hop producer Parteum; Samba-infused rhythms of Contrafluxo and Lucas Santana; House Music with The Greens and Projetoitagiba; and the fusion of Detroit and Soul from Andre Torquato. This compliation has sounds for everybod and for all tastes.
