Cut of the Week 02/23/10
Forro In The Dark is a band that originated in NYC and is comprised of Brazilian ex-pats who made a name for themselves performing for years at NuBlu in the East Village. Their cross-cultural approach incorporates elements from a variety of sources: Brazilian forro (See Episode #4 for more), latin jazz, rock, funk and reggae. Their first album, Bonfires of São João, included guests such as the legendary David Byrne and Bebel Gilberto. This track is a reggae-infused song that is a really light and fun defense of Bob Marley's legacy. It's off their newest album, Light a Candle. Enjoy.
To share my love for music and the art of the mixtape, both for newbies and snobs alike. No holds barred - anything from Afro-Beat to Zydeco. I hope to introduce new music as well as unearth some forgotten gems.
Brand new mixes posted weekly (or so).
Two Rules:
1) Please make requests. 2) Do not hesitate to comment, question, guffaw, smile, cry, smirk, or denounce. The important thing is to share so we all can learn about music and how it makes us feel.
