Okay, we know that much of the Brazilian Baile
Funk lyricism is mostly about getting laid. Yes, Rio de Janeiro's 21st
century beat music is nothing but a s-thing. Consequently, our chief
erotoman Edu K named his new track "Sex-O-Matic".
It features the mighty Deize Tigrona on the
mic, one of Rio de Janeiro's top female Mcs, notorious for her ability
to both sing the subtlest jazz tunes as well as the most lust dripping
slack lyrics. As a resident of the infamous Rio community, the "City
Of God" (yes, the one from the movie), Deize Tigronas MC skills
were forged in the fires of hundreds of funk balls all across Rio over
the years. In her first time collab with Edu she delivers full steam:
"You know what I only want? Sex!" she shouts in Portugese.
And of course, we do believe her.
Deize Tigrona
"Sex-O-Matic" is the second release by Edu K on Man Recordings
and another track from his upcoming album "Frenétiko"
(out March 22nd, 2006). Edu has made the scene in Brasil since the early
90s in punk, metal and funk. When his seminal baile funk track "Popozuda
Rock n'Roll" was released in Europe, it soon became a underground
hit. Since singing with Man Recordings, he has been remixed by Diplo
and DJ Sandrinho and has been dropped by the Rio godfather DJ Marlboro.
It's quite likely that with the remixes by London's Solid Groove, as
well as Edu's own reggaeton mix, and two mixes by some of Rio's top
baile funk DJs the word about the "K" will spread much further.
Solid Groove from London, a.k.a. Dave Taylor,
a.k.a. Switch is currently one of the hottest remixer in the world of
electronic music. His remix is a storming minimalist rave monster in
his trademark "fidgit" style. Yeah, it's "fresh!"
as the sample goes: A simple bassdrum, Deize's chopped-up voice and
a gnarly synth hook will guarantee hands up in the air on dancefloors
around the globe.
Edu K's Reggaeton Remix mounts the energetic
funk vibe on a reggaeton inspired skank-track. For those about to shake
your booty!

Mavi
DJ Edgar
DJ Mavi + DJ Sany, two of Rio de Janeiro's most wanted DJs and producers,
provide a guitar swirling, block rocking baile funk mix. DJ Edgar, the
main DJ and producer behind Rio de Janeiro's MC star Mr. Catra
provides another baile funk mix, which focusses less on guitars but
more on beats. Nevertheless, it calls for booty time. A storming, butt
shaking original, four burning remixes – "Sex-O-Matic"
will cause some serious bump n'grind bass pogo dancing!
