In episode #79, we discussed one of the best instrumental albums ever recorded. It is the Quarteto Novo's first and only album, released in 1967 via Odeon in Brazil. This album was fundamental in bringing Northeast folklore music to a national audience, sparsely blended with bebop jazz, bossa, folk, with cinematic arrangements and great musicianship. The quartet of percussionist Airto Moreira, guitarist Heraldo do Monte, bassist Theo de Barros and flutist/pianist Hermeto Pascoal deviated from conventional time signatures and created a very innovative sound not only in Brazil, but for the whole world. Quarteto Novo recently had its first vinyl reissue in 25 years by French new record label Jazzybelle. Follow our playlist on Spotify: Brazuca Sounds Podcast Soundtrack.

In episode #78, we discussed Tim Maia's album Racional Volume 1, released in 1975. By 1974, Tim Maia had become deeply involved with Cultura Racional, a spiritual philosophy he believed could "save humanity" through the teachings found in Universo em Desencanto. This belief consumed him to the point where he temporarily gave up drinking, smoking, and drugs, and began dressing in all-white, cult-like attire. Despite the controversy, the music is now recognized as some of the most spiritually funky and innovative ever recorded in Brazil.With the album nearly finished, he revoked his contract with RCA Victor, secured the master tapes, and rewrote all the original lyrics to reflect the teachings of Cultura Racional. He founded his own independent label to release the album, Seroma Discos, which features six full songs, three spoken-word vignettes focused on the book's message, and one track in English aimed at reaching an international audience.

In episode #77, we shared 25 songs explicitly talking about Brazilian places in their lyrics, from worldwide famous Corcovado and Copacabana in Rio de Janeiro, to its neighborhoods, favelas, and birth to samba. We traveled to São Paulo with Caetano, Os Mutantes, and the mango opus album released by César Camargo Maria & Cia. Then we go to Minas Gerais with Milton Nascimento and his Clube da Equina's associates, and we finish the first part of our journey in Brazil's capital Brasília.

From Tom Zé electrifying guitar-driver Tropicalia to the sarcastic pop of Juca Chaves' "Take Me Back to Piauí", we left no stone unturned, contextualizing what the songs represent to the narrative. Among other highlights are Erasmo Carlos, a couple of Roberto Carlos, Caetano Veloso, Mutantes and Serge Gainsbourg. Follow our playlist on Spotify: Brazuca Sounds Soundtrack Podcast.

In episode #75 we talked about some of the greatest Brazilian drummers of all time, and how they shaped the style of playing worldwide. Among the names featured are Edison Machado, Dom Um Romão, Airto Moreira, Helcio Milito, Milton Banana, Chico Batera, João Palma, and more. We discussed how they innovated with rim clicks, cymbal sambas (samba de prato), exquisite tempos, inventive percussions, and how they revolutionized the hi-hat use, blending bossa, Afro-Samba and jazz.We put together a playlist with all the songs we played.Follow also our playlist on Spotify: "⁠Soundtrack: Brazuca Sounds⁠". 

In episode #74, we discussed some of the best Brazilian albums released in 2024. From the spiritual jazz of Amaro Freitas and its world recognition, the return of magnificent Céu, the Afrobeat ensemble Nomade Orquestra, and the beautiful meditations-like songs from singer/multi-instrumentalist Luiza Brina. We also talked about brother Alvaro Lancelotti, Domenico Lancelotti, the latest from Moreno Veloso, the veterans Zeca Baleiro and Wado releasing an album as a duo, the psyche-rock of Boogarins and the good-vibes samba from Rogê.

In episode #73, we will finish our celebration of albums released 50 years ago. During this year we made specials about 'A Tábua de Esmeralda', 'Elis & Tom', Cartola's debut album, Arnaldo Baptita's solo album, and more recently Gal Costa's 'Cantar'. In this episode, we will discuss some other great albums from 1973, from the brilliant samba makers Clara Nunes and Martinho da Vila to the Northeast psychedelia of Ednardo, and the forgotten brilliancy of Tuca, Ana Mazzotti, and Jaime & Nair. We also talked about Jards Macalé, Quinteto Armorial, Egberto Gismonti, and the fantastic O Som Nosso de Cada Dia. All songs are available following our playlist on Spotify "⁠Soundtrack: Brazuca Sounds"⁠.

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.

This episode is exclusive for paid subscribers. We celebrate the 50-year release of "Cantar" by Gal Costa. Unlike her two previous works, the live album Fa-Tal, and the masterpiece album "India", this is a more soft, calm, reaffirming Gal Costa's and her early bossa nova style - before she turned into Tropicalia sex symbol. Produced by Caetano Veloso and several tracks arranged by João Donato, it was a massive commercial failure in the 1970s but regained a cult status over the years. It is the only Gal Costa album to make the "100 Greatest Brazilian Music Records" list chosen by Rolling Stone Brasil.

In this episode, we celebrate the 50-year release of "Lóki?", the solo debut album of Arnaldo Baptista. After departing from Os Mutantes, and dealing with depression, drug abuse, and the break up with Rita Lee, Arnaldo put together one of the most melancholy Brazilian albums ever produced. A psychedelic rock n' roll with no electric guitar on it, the album is an adventure of organ, piano, and modern synthesizers. We analyzed the music's context, the lyrics' ideas, his obsessions with spaceships, and all the struggles that Arnaldo went through after the recording process.

In this episode, we celebrate the music career of the great Sergio Mendes. As hard as it is to summarise such a long discography, we hopefully brought the essential of Sergio Mendes in 15 songs (Portuguese language-only, nothing personal). We talked about the origins of "Mas Que Nada" and its meaning, personal favourites from Brasil 65 released as Sergio Mendes Trio featuring Wanda Sá and Rosinha de Valença, and his later stardom in the USA under the moniker Sergio Mendes & Brasil 66. We spoke about his partnerships with Halp Albert, Edu Lobo, Tom Jobim, Stevie Wonder, and more.

In this episode, we celebrate samba once again by listing 10 different songs whose subject is the samba itself. A metalinguistic samba so to speak, where the music genre is the character - one would be impressed by how many songs are out there! Among the highlights are Dorival Caymmi's "O Samba da Minha Terra", Zé Keti's "A Voz do Morro", and Novos Baianos' "Na Cadência do Samba" (written by Ataulfo Alves). We also talked about Noel Rosa, Vinícius de Moraes, Nelson Sargento, Paulinho da Viola, Elza Soares, Jair Rodrigues, Alcione, and the mainstream samba ballads.

In this episode, we celebrate the music from the South region in Brazil, from its folklore roots with Teixeirinha, album sales phenomenon Nelson Gonçalves, melancholic-samba pioneer Lupicínio Rodrigues, and the bubblegum-rock early influences of Elis Regina. We also covered the Southern Tropicalia movement, with Os Brasas, O Bando, and Liverpool, and finished with folk-rock artists like Hermes Aquino, Almondegas, Paralelo 30, Carlinhos Hartlieb, Bebeto Alves, Vitor Ramil, blending MPB, folk, nativist sounds and influences from the border with Uruguay and Argentina.

This episode is exclusive to subscribers. Access now at patreon.com/brazucasounds In this episode, we celebrate the 50th anniversary of Alceu Valença's debut album as a solo artist, "Molhado de Suor", released by Philips in 1974. Born and raised in Pernambuco, in the Northeast of Brazil, Valença effortlessly blended folklore sounds of his native land, such as forró and baião, with MPB, folk, and rock, creating a cornucopia of psychedelic music. The album aesthetic, combining mastering acoustic guitar and soft percussive elements, makes it both, inherently Brazilian, all at the same time being widely universal. This debut album was a stepping for an artist who would top Brazilian charts in the 1980s with his bold mix of electric guitar and forró. Access our playlist on Spotify: Brazuca Sounds Soundtracks.

In episode #65 we celebrate the music career of Chico Buarque, who turns 80 years old on June 19th. So what about discussing, playing, or mentioning 80 of his best songs ever released? I think it's a great idea, so we discussed his discography from his early days as a bossa-nova aficionado to his protest songs against the Brazilian military regime, his great songs released in the 80s and 90s, covering his music and songwriting to his more recent work. Not in a particular order, though. We spoke about Chico Buarque's numerous facets: the Troubadour, the Chronist, the Bohemian, the Lover, and the Politician.

In episode #64 we discuss songs censored during the military regime in Brazil (1964-1985). In April 1964, a coup d'etat took over Brazil, and four years later the government adopted even more restrictive measures with the Institutional Act nº5, so every cultural work (films, books, theatre, and music), required prior approval from the government to circulate. We had another episode on this topic on Brazuca Sounds #8. In this episode, we discussed songs censored by the dictatorship whether because of their political lyrics, their "poor taste" against morals, or simply by any rational reason. We also talked about mysteriously NOT censored songs and what the musicians did to accomplish that. Amongst the artists featured on the podcast are Luiz Gonzaga, MPB4, Ivan Lins, Odair José, Tim Maia, Rita Lee, and more. Access our playlist Brazuca Sounds Podcast Soundtrack.

This is a preview for our paid subscribers at Patreon. Subscribe now: patreon.com/brazucasoundsIn episode #63 we discussed the 50th anniversary of Elis & Tom, released in 1974. Elis Regina completed 10 years at Philips, and the record label offered a gift to celebrate the occasion. She chose to record an album performing songs by Tom Jobim featuring the maestro himself. Recorded in Los Angeles, the album rejuvenated bossa-nova, which was slowly beginning to die in the water. Elis Regina conquered all the prestige that she never had despite her popularity, and Tom Jobim achieved mainstream success that he never came close to having in Brazil despite his prestige. The album "Elis & Tom" was recently the subject of a documentary, "Elis e Tom, Só Tinha de Ser com Você", with rare and unseen images from the recording sessions. On this podcast, we're gonna expand on that, with all the backstory about one the greatest albums of Brazilian music history.Access our playlist Brazuca Sounds Podcast Soundtrack.

In episode #62 we discussed the 50th anniversary of Jorge Ben's masterpiece "A Tábua de Esmeralda", released in 1974. After a period of living in France, Jorge Ben got involved with alchemists. Hence, the album is a reflection of its secrets, legends, and fables, including the album's title (a reference to the Emerald Tablet) and the artwork that incorporates drawings from Nicholas Flamel, who was immortalized as a great alchemist for his work on the philosopher's stone. However, it's NOT only about alchemy as Jorge Ben also speaks about black culture in seminal tracks like "Zumbi", his love for women characters like "Minha Teimosia, Uma Arma pra te Conquistar", and more importantly, it is the last Jorge Ben album played entirely with the acoustic guitar.

In episode #61 we talk about singer, songwriter, guitarist, actor, and comedy writer Arnaud Rodrigues. One of the most underrated Brazilian musicians from the 1970s, Arnaud has released, at least, three classics under his belt: "Murituri" (1974) released under his name; "Baiano & os Novos Caetanos" (1974), as a duo with comedian wizard Chico Anysio; and "Som do Paulinho" (1976) released under Arnaud's alias as Paulinho Cabeça de Profeta, a music caleidoscope combining Rock, Latin, Funk, Folk, Country and his regional influences from the Northeast, such as Baião e Forró. A comedy writer for the megapopular sketch-TV show "Chico City", Arnaud was perceived by the public mostly as an actor/comedian, which perhaps explains the lack of exposure his music deserved. However, that he was a part-time musician makes him more interesting not less. Access our playlist Brazuca Sounds Podcast Soundtrack. Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

In this episode, we celebrate the 50th anniversary of Cartola's debut album released in 1974. Nearly 50 years after beginning his career, Cartola released his first album featuring 12 songs of the more than 100 he wrote during his lifetime. Recorded in February and March 1974, the album was released by the independent label Discos Marcus Pereira. We talk about Cartola's upbringing as a musician in the 1920s, his struggles with poverty, health, and death in his family, the rediscovery of his work by bossa and samba enthusiasts in the 1960s, and finally the backstory of the album's making. We analyzed much of the Cartola's lyrics, and the music put together by a great ensemble of Dino 7 Cordas (seven-string-guitar), Meira (guitar) and Canhoto (cavaquinho).Access our playlist Brazuca Sounds Soundtracks.

In this episode, we talk about the record label Continental and their (allegedly) melted albums. After the label ran out of Secos e Molhados LPs to sell in 1973, and the lack of raw material during the global oil crisis (and the Brazilian dictatorship's terrible administration), they decided to melt their back catalog to press them into new Secos e Molhados. Whether is factually hard to prove which albums were melted, is well documented that Arthur Verocai's debut and many of the Continental albums were taken out of circulation. So it leads us to speculate which ones, and those are five albums that we picked to talk about: Heraton Salvanini and his debut "SP/73"; Walter Franco's "Ou Não"; O Pessoal do Ceará only record registered as a group; Terço self-titled second album; and Paulo Bagunça e a Tropa Maldita.

In episode #58, we continue our celebration of albums released 50 years ago in 1973. This year we made specials about the albums released by João Donato, Marcos Valle, Tom Jobim, Gal Costa, Secos e Molhados, and more. Now is the time to discuss some of the most overlooked albums from 1973, from the brilliant debuts of Luiz Melodia and Gonzaguinha (pictured) to the crazy Northeast psychedelia of Satwa, the rural braziliana of Elomar, samba-rock makers Wando, and Marku, the resurgence of Tom Zé, the almost-forgotten work of Os Tincoãs, and the soul-gospel-psychedelic-funk of Cassiano's second album.

In episode #57 we discussed three Brazilian rock artists that broke in 1973: Secos e Molhados, Raul Seixas, and Novos Baianos. The debut album of Secos e Molhados was a phenomenon in sales like never seen before; their blend of rock, pop, baroque, and poetry made them the first Beatlemania-esque in Brazil. Raul Seixas and his debut also cemented him as a rock icon that even stands today; Novos Baianos' third record was not as popular as "Acabou Chorare", but strange as it sounds, elevated the group's trademark blend of genres to higher grounds: it's even more samba, and it's even more rock n' roll.

In episode #56 we discuss one of the most important Brazilian record labels: Elenco. Founded in 1963 by Aloysio de Oliveira with the ambition of becoming the best bossa-nova label in the country, Elenco (translated into "cast") put together a constellation of big names and released a crazy amount of bossa-nova classics. We'll talk about albums by superstars Vinicius de Moraes, Roberto Menescal, Sylvia Telles, Edu Lobo, Nara Leão, the brilliance of Sergio Ricardo, and some forgotten names such as Lucio Alves, Agostinho dos Santos and Aracy de Almeida.

In episode #55 we celebrate the album "Índia", released by Gal Costa in July 1973. The album's controversial cover was banned by the Brazilian military regime upon its release, but that was just one of the reasons it became so iconic. Gal Costa distanced herself from the Tropicália movement in "Índia" (like all her peers before her), showcasing a more stripped-down sound, influenced by folk (and folklore), blues, baião, Clube da Esquina, and Brazilian standards from samba (Lupicínio) and bossa-nova (João Gilberto/Tom Jobim). Gal Costa even had the time to perform probably the funkiest song ever produced in Brazil with "Pontos de Luz". The album was also a big rupture to Gal Costa's fans at the time, taking her to new levels of popularity and celebrity stardom. Follow our playlist on Spotify: "⁠⁠Soundtrack: Brazuca Sounds⁠⁠".

In episode #54, we tell the history of the most popular music genre in Brazil connected to the Northeast: forró. We also cover all its subtle variances, in genres like baião, xote, xaxado, and maracatu. We'll talk about key artists in forró such as Luiz Gonzaga, Jackson do Pandeiro, Sivuca, and Dominguinhos, the female queens Marinês and Carmélia Alves, and the megahits from names like Ary Lobo, João do Vale, Genival Lacerda, and Trio Nordestino. Then we follow with all the MPB-mainstream singers influenced by forró, such as Clara Nunes, Gilberto Gil, and Elba Ramalho. Unlike samba and its urban appeal that ultimately became a global phenomenon, forró remained attached mainly to the Brazilian roots, largely disseminated during our festivities in June (Festas Juninas) celebrating St. John Baptiste.

In episode #53 we celebrate the album "Matita Perê" by Tom Jobim, released in May 1973 by Philips. Considered one of the inventors of bossa-nova, Jobim had astronomical success in Brazil and abroad (especially the USA), so for this album, he decided to explore new territories. Produced and arranged by German composer Claus Ogerman, he came up with a complex mix of nature-inspired sounds, Brazilian roots, and erudite music, all encapsulated by the poetry of Guimarães Rosa, although the opening is quite literally a bossa-nova classic: "Águas de Março". The album was released as "Jobim" for the international market, by MCA Records, and also with a different cover. Follow our playlist on Spotify: "Soundtrack: Brazuca Sounds".

In episode #52 we talk about the album "Milagre dos Peixes" by Milton Nascimento, released in August 1973. Following the success of "Clube da Esquina" in 1972 Milton reunited with his band Som Imaginário to produce a follow-up as good (or better) than his previous masterpiece. "Milagre dos Peixes" had its lyrics heavily censored by the military regime, so it became an experimental endeavor of sonic aspirations and instrumental tracks. We also discussed the album "Matança de Porco", released by Som Imaginário, led by Wagner Tiso. Another fantastic record released in 1973, "Beto Guedes, Danilo Caymmi, Toninho Horta, Novelli" is an obscure but fundamental album from members of the Clube da Esquina's collective. To finish off this episode, we discussed the elemental contributions of Naná Vasconcelos to "Milagre dos Peixes", and his two epic percussive-centric albums released in 1973.

In episode #51 we discussed the impact of soap opera soundtracks on the Brazilian music industry. The scores were very often written/produced by big names such as Roberto Carlos/Erasmo Carlos, Marcos Valle, Baden Powell, and Vinícius de Moraes. We'll be playing songs performed by Osmar Milito, Chico Batera, Banda Black Rio, Lincoln Olivetti, and obscure jams from Kris & Cristina, Sonia Burnier, Ronaldo Resedá, and two soundtrack grandmasters: Waltel Branco and Nonato Buzar. The telenovelas are a big part of Brazilian culture and an invaluable source of material for music enthusiasts. Follow our playlist on Spotify "Soundtrack: Brazuca Sounds".

In episode #50 we celebrate the album "Previsão do Tempo" by Marcos Valle, released in September 1973 by Odeon. After experimenting with different bands, and a handful of soundtracks under his name, Marcos Valle came up with his album masterpiece according to many critics. Backed up by the trio Azymuth, "Previsão do Tempo" is a blend of Brazilian MPB, with funk, soul, pop, and jazz, with a high volume of political lyrics, written mostly by Marcos and his brother Paulo Sergio Valle. The album was not a mainstream hit upon its release although over time gained a cult status amongst DJs and record collectors. Follow our playlist on Spotify: "Soundtrack: Brazuca Sounds".

In episode #46, we talk about Samba-Enredo, a sub-genre of modern samba made specifically for Carnaval. "Samba-enredo" translates literally as samba-theme, played by a samba school to narrate a historical event in a lyrical form. Over the years, however, many of those songs became popular beyond the Carnaval parade in February, even being recorded by famous artists. We introduce you to some of these songs such as "Liberdade, Liberdade", "Festa Para um Rei Negro", "É Hoje", and artists such as Martinho da Vila, Originais do Samba, Simone, Marisa Monte. Among the most popular samba schools are Mangueira, Portela, Salgueiro, Império Serrano, and each group has 70 minutes to present by crossing a 530 metres avenue called the Sambadrome. The drumming section (bateria) of every samba school is composed of around 250-300 musicians playing a variety of percussive instruments.

In episode #44, we celebrate the music of Nara Leão by discussing five of her best albums. Amongst one the pioneers of the bossa-nova movement in Rio de Janeiro, Nara Leão transcended the music genre. Considered by many the "Muse of Bossa Nova", Nara decided to distance herself from any label imposed by the media, blending the voice of favelas into her music by recording songs composed by legendary samba songwriters such as Cartola and Zé Keti. Unlike other great singers of her generation, Nara Leão also played the guitar, and was an active voice against the dictatorship in Brazil, including a cameo in the collective manifesto "Tropicalia". Fundamental albums to start: "Nara" (64), "Opinião de Nara" (64), and "Dez Anos Depois" (71).

In episode #40 we celebrate the life of Gal Costa by discussing her five best records: Gal Costa (1969), Gal (1969), Índia (1973), Cantar (1974) and Gal Tropical (1979). As an early bossa-nova singer moving from Bahia to Rio de Janeiro, Gal reached her golden era as part of the Tropicalia, a psychedelic-rock counter-culture movement in the late 1960s. In the 1970s Gal Costa explored different genres and styles expanding her boundaries in the experimental "Índia" and the back-to-bossa-nova album, "Cantar", a commercial failure. I will finish this episode off by also revisiting two former episodes, Episode #24 where I explored Gal Costa's live album "FA-TAL (1971)", and Episode #2 where we discussed her connections to the orishas and Bahia. Gal Costa passed away on November 9 at the age of 77.
