On this last episode dedicated to Brazil, Sonido Tupinamba met Dj Tahira in front of Niemeyer's Copan building to talk about the afro and indigenous roots of this musical country.Tahira is DJ, producer and digger that blends genres and eras, from traditional sounds to the electronic mixtures from the DJ culture. Emerging from the Sao Paulo scene in the ’90s, Tahira has become famous for seeking all varieties of Afro-Brazilian music. His reworks have become classics for DJs such as Francois K, Gilles Peterson, Nightmares on Wax and more and his recently released edit of Gilberto Gil’s “Toda Menina Baiana” received the seal of approval from Gil himself.His quest for lost and forgotten movements of Brazilian music (more than 30 rhythms) include samba de coco, catalysed by slavery in the 19th century, embraced by the working class and almost banished to obscurity by the musical elite. For further information check out his Levanta Poeria Compilation and watch his Boiler Room.

I am crazy for Brazilian music and I know you are too ;) Get ready for a new musical trip alongside Sonido Tupinamba and Rodrigo Gorky (Dj Gorky from Fatnotronic / Phillipi & Rodrigo). 

Rodrigo was part of the groundbreaking electro-pop-funky carioca group Bonde do Rolê. The band signed with Domino Recods, toured with Cansei de Ser Sexy, was produced by the likes of Poolside, Diplo, Boyz Noize and had huge collaborators like Caetano Veloso. Nowadays Rodrigo is half of Fatnotronic a duo specialized in edits of obscure Brazilian boogie and balearic tunes that have been praised by 2Manydjs, Fatboy Slim and Diplo. 

He is also 50% of Phillipi & Rodrigo, an electronic duo that has just launched it´s debut album , recorded, produced and mixed at Studio DEEWEE (Label created and led by David & Stephen Dewaele from 2 Many DJ's & Soulwax)

Besides these two amazing projects he also produces other artists, specially on the LGTBQI community. He discovered via Instagram the talent of the Drag Queen Pabllo Vittar and started building her skyrocket career.
