NEW FUNK
Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009
What´s up with baile funk these days? In Rio, there´s a culture war going on. The new major is trying to shut down baile funk culture across the city, criminalizing any un-licensed party (err, the majority of them). On the other side, there´s the the Apafunk association (Associação Dos Profissionais E Amigos Do Funk ) who is in the process of establishing funk as an officially valorized and established form of Rio´s urban culture. In between, there´s the music, and here´s a few tracks that recently made the circuit in Rio´s bailes:
DJ Isaac 22 – Montagem Aquecimento Do Pimp
Sandrinho DJ – Hoje Vai Dar Merda feat Mr. Catra
Dennis DJ – No Sofa feat Tati Quebra Barraco
Phabyo DJ – Carimba A Bundinha No Chao feat. Mc Magrao
