Brazilian Boogie, Disco & Funk with Poly-Ritmo & Zag 

Thanks for this set list. The Brazilian disco scene is something I always talk about here and now we have a great sample of this for the world to see that here we also had people thanking heaven for being a Friday and having night fever on a Saturday. Some suggestions I can leave for further disco sets with Brazilian songs are these: 1) Lady Zú. She was nicknamed "the Brazilian Donna Summer" by Carlos Imperial, a very important guy on our cultural scene and the one who discovered Roberto Carlos, Tim Maia, Elis Regina, Clara Nunes and a bunch of other important singers that defined our music scene from the 1960s to the 1980s. Her main success is "A Noite Vai Chegar" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2U6324df94Q.html She also recorded a version for "A Banda" that I consider way better than the original one from Chico Buarque ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wdmqMcomzSs.html She still presents today and her concert is a great experience that I was lucky to watch; 2) Ronaldo Resedá. This guy died at a young age, but left some interesting songs, like "Kitsch Zona Sul": ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DqBGpW2Muis.html And "Marrom Glacê": ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XP-I0wxSPDw.html 3) Dudu França. This guy's most important song is "Grilo na Cuca": ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fSihg1dpjAg.html 4) Harmony Cats. An all-female band that left its mark on our disco scene, with songs like "Felicidade": ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AgeHpfmt0qA.html 5) Frenéticas. For sure the most known Brazilian disco band. Wherever you are here in Brazil, no matter if it's a wedding, a prom, a bar-mitzva or what other celebration, probably you'll listen to "Dancin' Days", a song that was made for a soap opera with the same name: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BZtDGUdfhNQ.html Another one that was part of a soundtrack was "O Preto que Satisfaz", for the soap opera "Feijão Maravilha": ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bB_q5eqT2Uo.html 6) Gretchen. Foreigners may know her more because of animated GIF memes that circulate on the internet and even led Kate Perry to invite her for "Swish Swish" videoclip (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-X0ZVaFO7cGE.html), but here in Brazil she has a long career that started on the times when mirrored globes spinned on ceilings and lights came from below from dancing floors. For sure in a party here in Brazil you'll listen to "Conga, Conga, Conga": ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-p-Tf3kJkAqk.html And "Freak Le Boom Boom": ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RV8BHoUqWMw.html

o descobridor e o melhor album do Tim nos anos 80. Parabens Poly

Eu como brasileiro que agradeço por compartilhar essas obras 💟

@@roddylima9499 O Brasil é o único outro país do mundo onde a maioria da música consumida localmente é produzida localmente. Fora aqui, só mesmo os Estados Unidos estão nessa condição e isso significa muito em termos culturais. Chegamos a nos dar ao luxo de ter alguns artistas que fizeram ou fazem mais sucesso lá fora do que aqui, como Nelson Ned (foi o primeiro brasileiro a vender mais de um milhão de álbuns no exterior e os latinos o adoram e respeitam da forma como nós o deveríamos ter feito), Arthur Verocai (este teve o azar de ter lançado seu álbum mais conhecido na mesma época em que estouraram os Secos & Molhados e acabou sendo "ressuscitado" pelos rappers americanos, que adoraram as bases das canções e as samplearam), Cláudia Rallo (esta teve o azar de ter surgido na mesma época da Elis Regina e, enquanto aqui a ouvimos pedir para deixar dizer o que pensa desta vida e precisar demais desabafar, no Japão ela teve muito mais reconhecimento) e alguns outros. Ao contrário dos States, boa parte da música consumida localmente fica por aqui mesmo, o que em parte fortalece nosso mercado mas também cria uma barreira no exterior. Poucos são os cantores daqui bastante conhecidos tanto aqui quanto lá fora e provavelmente Roberto Carlos seja o caso mais emblemático, podendo ser considerado o único superastro musical brasileiro no sentido de o que um superastro é: alguém que não é identificado obrigatoriamente com um certo recorte social (classe econômica, origem, sexo etc.) ou localidade (saiu de Cachoeiro do Itapemirim para o mundo), que é recebido em outro país com honras de chefe de Estado (vide a vez em que Shimon Peres o recepcionou em Jerusalém) e acaba tendo público significativo fora de seu país (novamente temos os latinos amando-o de paixão e lotando seus shows independente de se em algum país da América Latina ou em cidades americanas, além de também repercutir muito em países de língua portuguesa). Claro que sendo o único país das Américas onde se fala português, temos essa certa barreira de exportação de nossa música, ainda que isso não tenha impedido a existência de astros como os citados. Curiosamente, temos uma certa receptividade histórica para canções que não sejam cantadas em inglês, como pudemos ver pela onda de canções italianas por aqui após o Rei ter vencido o festival de San Remo, sendo que mais ou menos na mesma época também tivemos uma recepção de artistas africanos, tendo "Pata Pata", de Miriam Makeba, feito algum sucesso por aqui, além de os bichos-grilos terem adorado Fela Kuti. Fora esses, vira e mexe temos algum artista latino que faz sucesso por aqui, em diversas épocas.

I'm looking to see you in Italy!

If you visit my city (São Paulo), I guess that you'll pass some time on shops that sell used records. Some of these albums are rarities even here and sometimes when someone puts a light on them it can even influence not only the music scene abroad but also our local music scene, as it happened when DJs from outside discovered the sambalanço and sampled it for some drum n' bass successes or when American rappers sampled songs from artists like Arthur Verocai (way more known there than here in Brazil), Ronnie Von and Gal Costa.

@@Andrepaulistano_ Drum and bass with a little Samba is a nice combo, wish that style took off more. I would love to visit Sao Paulo, I am pretty sure my old neighbors family live out there. They were very flattered by my knowledge of the form, I just absorbed a lot of Brazilian music through my jazz journey and love Bossa and Samba rhythm. I hope this world is treating you well bro.

@@ioioio13 This combination of drum n' bass with samba by the hands of Marky, Ramilson Maia and Kaleidoscópio, just to tell a few ones, led to an interesting phenomenom here in São Paulo between mid-2000s and early-2010s: a plethora of clubs with samba-rock nights. Samba-rock can be considered the only typical dance of my city and can be danced not only with some sambalanços but also some specific rock songs, like "Hit the Road, Jack" (Ray Charles) and "Check My Machine" (Paul McCartney and even some other ones from other rhythms. Curiously, in São Paulo people are ashamed of bragging about some local cultural manifestations, something very on contrary from what I saw in Recife, that proudly nicknames itself as the capital of frevo. About my city, first of all you have to bear in mind that it's the largest on the Southern Hemisphere, being home of more than 10 million souls. It's also the most important economic center in Brazil and very marked by the immigration in the 20th century, something that made it being the largest Italian city outside Italy (40% of the Paulistanos have at least one ancestor from there), the largest Japanese city outside Japan (Brazil is the largest Japanese diaspora on the world), the largest Lebanese city outside Lebanon (there are more people of Lebanese descent in Brazil than in Lebanon) and also have important influences from the Portuguese (in this case, Rio has proportionally more people of Portuguese descent than here) and Spanish immigrations (Salvador has proportionally more people of Spanish descent than here and probably São Paulo wins in numerical terms the dispute of what Brazilian city is more Spanish). It must also be pointed that São Paulo had significant influxes from Germany and also people from Eastern Europe, mainly the Balkans and Russia, with the curiosity of having a neighborhood that was initially built by Lithuanians (Vila Zelina, on the Eastern side and still having some houses with the typical architecture). There was also influences from internal migration, being the one from the Northeastern region the main one, as it happened in significant numbers since the 1930s. There are also people of African descent in sizable numbers, mostly descending from former slaves and people living in small quilombos on the past (the Saracura being the most known and one of the roots of Bela Vista neighborhood, in the downtown area). As you can see, it's a cosmopolitan place since it was way smaller than Rio, passing it as the largest Brazilian city by the 1960s due to concentrating lots of industries and businesses from the service sector. Despite being larger than NY or LA, São Paulo isn't as organized as these cities. As other old Brazilian cities (São Paulo was founded in 1554, with the stablishment of a Jesuitic school in what now is the downtown area), it follows the Portuguese way of city planning, meaning lots of narrow and winding streets, a bit like what an old Euro town from Medieval times is built. There's also the curiosity that some trails used by the natives, called peabirus, became important road axis (South America has a path made by the Incans that goes from what now is Peru and Bolivia to what now is Brazil, as that former empire had some expansionist ambitions and traded with what now are Brazilian tribes some centuries before the arrival of the Portuguese navigators). Combine these old streets to a bad planning and this leads to traffic jams and difficulties on finding where some places are. Railroad transportatiion grows very slowly, but we have 377 km (234 mi.) combining subways and urban trains. If you live near a station, consider yourself a lucky person, as there are both advantages from going from point A to B and your household values, specially if you bought it when there wasn't rails. Most of public transportation travel is made by bus and here is the home of the largest urban bus fleet on the planet, with more than 13,000 circulating daily. Buses used to be very bad until the 2000s, when new laws practically made mandate most of them to be what a bus uses to be in U.S. or Europe (rear engine, low floor, air suspension and so on), with the advantage of having integration by electronic card, as that almost Medieval way of designing streets makes very hard to have the quantity of terminals a grid-like city can have. About the world treating me well, despite all this urban mess I said before, I consider myself lucky to live in São Paulo, as cosmopolitan cities like mine are hard to find in Brazil. I like living in a place where you have freedom to think the way you think without being stigmatized, something that can happen in some other places in my country. Freedom of thinking is one of those concepts that must be considered a right in the very same pantheon of freedom of speech and freedom of press, as thinking can be hindered by the spiral of silence. If it was to live in a smaller city with better standards of living, it'd have to be as cosmopolitan as São Paulo and here the only one I consider this is Florianópolis (400,000 inhabitants and curiously one of the few Brazilian capital cities that is smaller than the largest city in its state).

@@Andrepaulistano_ You and I would probably get along quite well if I ever visited. Thank you for all the info friend 🙂

*north america =)

The same here in Seattle!

O grande aqui foi ter deixado um pouco daquilo que tocava nos tempos em que o pessoal lavava o Fuscão ou o Opala para dar uma banda de noite.

if you like this check Racionais MCs brazlian rap group

@@JPindanga no make sense

you would like Cassiano - Onda

Further recomendations are Marcos Valle and Antonio Carlos & Jocafi, groove cranked up to 10

People that know MAJ for some time, when listened to this set, reminded the Disco Fridays that Zag did on Twitch.

@@Andrepaulistano_ Disco Fridays were my favorite days. I loved the chat. I felt like we were all dancing together.

@@kellyannthomas5727 For sure. I used to be active in these chats and I also had this kind of sensation you told.

@@Andrepaulistano_ The music was always unusually cool and unique and knowing that there were people in even the remotest places around the world grooving together made it feel tribal, like a dancing around the global fire via a Zag in London.

no dude. if this would be mainstream what would we do ? 🤫
