Brazilian Music Podcast – Soon on iTunes and Mixcloud!
Oi! Tudo bem?
It’s been a long time since I said/wrote that, but I think it’s time for me to publish/release “Mikooshka’s Best of Brazilian Music” collection via a podcast.
It could be more a of a “mixtape” flavor as I intend to include all kinds of classics, and make it a selector or collectors version. I will be culling some amazing alternate versions of well-known tunes, and ranging from bossa nova, samba and MPB, to rock/reggae and of course my favourite, D+B. I visited a DJ named Sergio Elmir at Dos Mundos CIUT in Toronto and played a two-song mix that brought together Jorge Ben Jor and DJ Marky/Fernada Porto – so look for more genre-benders along those lines.
Do you have some favorite Brazilian classic to recommend? I’m looking for music in all eras and genres, since that essentially is what Brazil is to me – a mega blend of every style grooving along with each other and getting on famously.
I will prepare a properly teched-out iTunes version (chapters, cues, images, etc) and also want to upload to Mixcloud which hosts amazing mixes from the likes of Chris Coco and Zero 7, among others.
Really looking forward to building the playlist! Hit me with your comments!
Obrigado,
Mikooshka

That is a great one. I once had the album – but I think it’s definitely on cassette someplace. I will include it – thanks bro!
