Carnaval 2

Each month, DJ Vivo and Mr Bongo connect for a new installment of the Brazilian Beatz Podcast, a curated audio expedition dedicated to the vast and rhythmic landscape of Brazilian sound. This isn't just a playlist; it's a deep, contextual dive into the genres that define the nation's musical heartbeat, from the foundational sway of Samba and the cool sophistication of Bossa Nova to the raw energy of Baile Funk and the hybrid innovations of Samba Breaks. You'll hear the soulful pulse of Black Rio, the festive rhythms of Carnival, the poetic depth of MPB, and the cross-cultural fusions of Sambareggae, alongside explorations of Forro, Reggae, Dub, and Hip Hop. Every episode is built with a selector's passion and a historian's respect, offering listeners not only tracks but the stories and connections between them. Tune in to this podcast for a consistently fresh and authentic monthly dose, where the familiar and the undiscovered sit side by side. It's a sonic journey that highlights the incredible diversity and enduring global influence of Brazilian music, all presented naturally through the knowledgeable ears of its hosts.
