Guest Mix: Brazilian Tunes from Salvador to Sergipe with Batukizer

All music rights belong to their rightful owners. Please support the musicians and buy their music. #vinylmix #brazil Batukizer DJs are Carla from Rio and Rasmus from Copenhagen. They spend their time digging for rare Brazilian records and playing DJ sets with amazing and little-known music all around the world and sharing it on a broad selection of platforms. Today’s theme is the unstoppable good vibes of Brazilian music. Music that will lift you up, empower and energize your day. The selection is focused on Northeastern Brazil tracks from the mid-80s to early 90s. The core of the mix is the “axé music” from Salvador, Bahia - mixed with elements of boogie, disco, samba and baião. The very last track is a classic axé song with “guitarra bahiana”. In the mid-and late 1980s, Brazil came out of 20 years of dictatorship and the music was marked by a new optimism and lets-show-the-world feeling. The lyrics underwent a shift from poetry and psychedelic to a more direct storytelling and cultural reference style.
