Great, John. Anyway, having a small space for samba (and related rhythms) here in the General Music Discussions is attractive too.

Partido Alto is another subgenre of samba, coming from the deep favela backyards there where a whitie is allowed only with a kind of visa.
 The African roots are so noticeable that in some parts they use basically Yoruba instruments while in other they use mainly Angola instruments. Nelson Sargento, almost 90, is a survivor. Tereza Cristina is a new generation star. Edited by Atkingani - 28 Jul 2011 at 10:15pm |

While many artists tended to make Bossa Nova more jazzy others searched a bridge between Bossa Nova and Samba, being João Bosco a good example. Edited by Atkingani - 28 Jul 2011 at 10:15pm |

Samba-Canção is a mix between Samba & Bolero, created back in the 1940s but still with many followers today.
Nana Caymmi, the daughter of Dorival Caymmi, composed and recorded this cool samba-canção just a few years ago. Edited by Atkingani - 28 Jul 2011 at 10:16pm |

Samba de breque (break samba) is noticeable for its broken musical phrases and spoken segments.
This the style of the wise street guys where the late Moreira da Silva reigned absolutely. |

Samba-rock is the style that made Jorge Ben Jor famous since the 1960s. He also has a bunch of clones and covers.

Samba-dance was a rhythm created in the 70s aimed to the disco fever.

However, the samba de gafieira was and still is a favorite style in the night-clubs and dancings (gafieiras).

Samba and Carnival form a perfect pair in the city of Rio de Janeiro.
Carnival needs a King and a Queen and every year, 2 or 3 months before Carnival there's a contest to select the new king & queen. Usually, the king is a fat guy (like Bacchus) and the queen is a gorgeous young lady and both need to be warm and know how to dance samba. Link below shows the last contest which happened in the end of 2010. DISCLAIMER: Images were shown in the Brazilian TV with no problems. However, if you have any restriction to beautiful women wearing tiny bikinis, please do not click on the link.  |

Tropicalismo was a cultural and musical movement in the 1960s that was a kind of parallel with the psych wave that occured there in the Northern Hemisphere.
Although not restricted to a specific musical style, those composers and arrangers of Tropicalism revisited samba with a toatlly new vision, including synths and electric guitars amid big orchestrations. Here Caetano Veloso and his iconic 1968 song. |

Back in the 1970s a new movement, Clube da Esquina, headed by Milton Nascimento mixed samba with prog-rock and Brasilian folk.

Tropicalismo probably has a lot in common with what we call Exotica on this site.

Quite sure, although the 2 main names of the movement: Caetano Veloso & Gilberto Gil were later more identified with Latin Jazz or World Music.

The video that Guigo had put here yesterday was very significant for me. Thank you. This thread serves as a reference very much. By the way, I buy "Previsao Do Tempo" of Marcos Valle before and it has been understood that it is a very wonderful album. It was a very progressive album for the item of MPB. I think that "Garra" is also wonderful. However, "Previsao Do Tempo" is overwhelming. Perhaps, I thought that Azimuth performed.

Kazuhiro-san, later I'll show some samples of what can be described as prog samba; actually the plain samba with influences borrowed from prog-rock via instruments and arrangements.
The brain behind these songs were Rogério Duprat, that worked with Mutantes but later worked also with a bunch of samba singers and composers.
