I made this mix to feel like you walking through the dense foliage of a Brazilian jungle. It starts grounded and slowly builds into club-driven territory balanced by interludes that offers space to reflect before the rhythm picks up again. Throughout the mix, I gathered the essence of my roots and sense of rhythm, bringing forward the richness of Brazilian percussion and grooves. I also tried to treat the transitions as clearings, detours, and deeper dives - sometimes leaning into ritualistic sounds, other times drifting into minimal cuts. The idea was to blur the boundaries between tradition and sound, keeping the rhythm as the guiding force.
