The First Case of the Samba Pop Swing

12:00pm, 3-11-2018
<< Tropicology

This is my third week of bringing you music that I acquired on my recent trip to Brazil!

I've already devoted one week to traditional samba sounds, and another week to Brazilian pop, funk, and soul. This week I am steering between these two poles, delivering a swinging set of samba-pop nuggets.

Brazilian musicians have been fusing samba with popular international sounds for decades. I start the set today with some early 60s fare fusing samba with jazz and swing. These tracks expand on the traditional samba band model by adding horns, organ, electric bass, and other non-traditional instruments.

We take a turn to the groovy side of the sixties during the first hour, focusing on samba sounds influenced by US and English garage rock sounds. These tasty tracks spill over to the top of the second hour, where I devote a series of tracks to the fun Brazilian pop star Oswaldo Nunes.

We introduce the samba staple of the "afro chop" during the second hour, then we wind up the set riding that vibe into some fun and funky samba rock of the 70s.

Beleza.
