  • Summary

  • In this episode, we discussed manguebeat by celebrating 30 years from the release of Chico Science & Nação Zumbi and Mundo Livre S/A's debut albums in 1994. A movement from the city of Recife, in Brazil's Northeast, manguebeat claimed to blend maracatu, which is the folklore music and dance from the region with elements of rock, dub, hip-hop, and bossa. The movement was extracted from a collective manifesto, "Crabs With Brains", a socio-political text against cultural stagnation, positioning the people of Recife, as part of their environment, but also able to transcend it, and overcome their situation. Chico Science & Fred Zero 04 (from Mundo Livre S/A) were the pivotal figures from the movement, but we also covered the bands Mestre Ambrósio, Cascabulho, Cordel do Fogo Encatado, DD Dolores e Orquestra de Santa Mass and Otto. All the songs we spoke about are available on our Spotify playlist: Brazuca Sounds Soundtracks. Get bonus content on Patreon
