Expugnator, this is the best explanation of the Brazilian music scene that I have ever seen so far. Thank you very much! I think this explanation is great for helping me really understand Brazilian music. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Oh, I don't. And I've not done 10000 sentences or even 1000. My card count is about 1500 for all languages (this includes the entire vocabulary of toki pona in both directions...)
Yes, thanks for the explanation!!! i'm focusing on European Portuguese so I don't know much about the Brazilian music scene. 2 persons have voted this message useful | |||

You're welcome kuji, there's much more than that, feel free to ask anything about Brazilian music as well as recommendations, I can give you suggestions about either local genres or international genres such as pop/rock, reggae etc. My undergraduate conclusion work was about the music industry so it's a topic that always calls up my attention.

Thank you very much! I'm a big reggae fan, so any recommendations about reggae from Brazil would be great. I also like samba a lot, although I don't know if it is old-fashioned or not. Maybe some newer musical genres incorporate samba in some way? Other than that... who is popular in Brazil right now? It could be from any genre. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Wow, only 1500 total? Amazing. Anki says I have 1962 cards total for Japanese and Portuguese, although some of them are cloze deletion made from the same notes as other cards, and some are for kanji characters. I do believe that once a person gets a lot of cards in their Anki deck (in the high thousands), the grammar and the way the language works will become clearer... if they can make it through all the reviews. By the way, the entire vocabulary of toki pona seems quite small. :o 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I also like reggae a lot and we have all sorts of styles when it comes to reggae music. More "roots" reggae: Adão Negro, Edson Gomes. Try "Samarina", "Perdido de Amor", Tribo de Jah Somewhere in between: Maskavo - Anjo do Céu, Asas Contemporary pop-like reggae: Chimarruts, Natiruts. Try "Do lado de cá", "Saber Voar", "Natiruts Reggae Power", "Sorri, sou rei", "Quero ser feliz também". Lyrics are particularly beaitful, meaningful but simple. They'll be great for your studies. Samba is never old-fashioned =D. Only the first, early 1920's samba recordings sound dated because of the recordings, vinnil etc. Samba songs from the 60's and 70's became classics and sound like they have no age. Alcione: "Não Deixe o Samba Morrer" Beth Carvalho: "Água de Chuva no Mar", "Regra Três" Paulinho da Viola: "Coração Leviano", "Foi um rio que passou em minha vida", "Ainda mais" Jorge Aragão: "Coisinha do Pai", "Não sou mais disso" Nelson Cavaquinho: "A flor e o espinho" MPB singer-songwriters (such as Chico Buarque and Djvana) and Bossa-nova composers (like Tom Jobim and Vinícius de Moraes) also made good samba: Chico Buarque: "Samba do Grande Amor", "Vai passar", "Cotidiano" (great lyrics) Djavan: "Flor de Liz", "Fato consumado" Tom Jobim: "Samba do avião" Samba-rock developped in the 70's with Jorge Ben Jor and marginally with Sergio Mendes (who arguably managed to be more famous abroad): Jorge Ben Jor: "O telefone tocou novamente", "País Tropical", "Por causa de você menina", "Mas que nada", "Taj Mahal" (which Rod Stewart plagiarized) Lately it incorporated also rap elements: Pedro Luís & A Parede: "Caio no suíngue" Seu Jorge is much more recent but he's one of the artists being aired now: Seu Jorge: "Cotidiano" (Chico Buarque's cover), "Carolina", "Alma de Guerreiro", "Burguesinha" Since you like both samba and reggae, I'd like to introduce to a sub-genre of the music of Bahia, so-called samba-reggae. Its most well-known group is Olodum: Olodum - "Protesto Olodum", "Vem meu amor", "Alegria geral", "Madagascar Olodum", "Rosa" Timbalada also comes close: "Beija-flor", "Mimar Você", "Toneladas de desejo" 3 persons have voted this message useful | |||

Now I'll try to say what's being aired now:
1. Commercial music has a close relationship with novelas, especially the main one that starts at around 9 o'clock. SO, many songs from its soundtrack made it to Top 20 easily: Roberto Carlos - Esse cara sou eu Seu Jorge - Alma de Guerreiro Maria Rita - Me deixas louca Mc Koringa - Dança Sensual Now by genres: Sertanejo: Jorge & Mateus - "O que é que tem", "Enquanto houver rãzões", "Flor" Victor & Léo - "Lágrimas", "Água de Oceano" Paula Fernandas - "Eu sem você", "Mineirinha ferveu", "Sensações" Luan Santana - "Te Vivo", "Sogrão Caprichou" Funk carioca: Naldo - "Exagerado", "Amor de chocolate", "Chantilly" Mc Koringa: "Tamborzão tá rolando", "Envolvida", "Pra me provocar" Mc Bola - "Ela é top" Mc Federado & Os Leleks - "Passinho do volante" (last Carnival's hit - go figure) Pagode (a poppish samba offspring)> Sorriso Maroto - "Assim você mata o papai", "Quem tá solteiro nunca fica só" Thiaguinho - "Buquê de Flores" Revelação - "Tá escrito" Turma do Pagode - "Camisa 10" MPB Marisa Monte - "Ainda bem" That's it for now =D 4 persons have voted this message useful |
